Tyson Fury: Joshua's not dangerous, at all. He's like a big cuddly baby

  Tyson Fury doesn’t think Anthony Joshua will be a dangerous opponent for him. The two British champions are supposed to face each other for the undisputed world heavyweight title.  Joshua, WBA/WBO/IBF/IBO champion, should have had a mandatory defence against IBF contender Kubrat Pulev.  Fury, the WBC champion, should have faced Deontay Wilder to complete the trilogy. Both fights, however, have been postponed due to the coronavirus pandemic.  Earlier, promoters suggested Joshua and Fury could meet in December, an unlikely scenario in the current circumstances.  The Gypsy King compared Joshua with a ‘big cuddly baby’, claiming he won’t have any concerns against him.  "One-hundred percent, Joshua's not dangerous, at all. He's like a big cuddly baby," Fury told ESPN. "Why would I be a believer when he got knocked spark out by Andy Ruiz? A last-minute replacement opponent ... who turned up 300 pounds or whatever it is, he didn't train, and Anthony Joshua couldn't do any good with him in the rematch. "He doesn't have anything, he couldn't hold a candle to 'The Gypsy King. There's only one heavyweight out there, there's only one undefeated world champion. They've all fallen by the wayside, the fellow that hasn't gotten beat, has knocked them out! I'm the only one! Me -- 'The Gypsy King,' unbeatable, the untouchable, unbreakable champion."
