The proposed fight between British boxing heavyweights Anthony Joshua and Tyson Fury is building up a storm and quite comically to, after the latter suggested he was more Nigerian than Joshua.
Fury is still fighting a legal battle to regain his boxing license after the British Boxing Board of Control (BBBofC) revoked it back in October of 2016.
The 28-year-old “Gypsy King” has even suggested he’d fight Joshua in Lagos and referred to himself as the “Nigerian nightmare” per BBC Sport.
Earlier, Fury posted a video on Instagram where he taunted Joshua, who is of Nigerian descent, after the latter called him a boring fighter.
His post read: gypsyking101@anthony_joshua boring hay! We see who is boring when U face me! A big bully is what you are u big dosser. Big femi your bully street name. I’ve seen your type many times.
