Tyson Fury supports AJ:

The former boxer, Tyson Fury responded to the criticism that Anthony Joshua suffers.

On Instagram, Fury mentioned that Joshua lost some fights, but that doesn’t define his boxing career.

“Tyson Fury here, and this is my defense of AJ,” the former Joshua’s rival said.

“Everyone’s saying, “AJ’s a bum”. He’s this, he’s that, “He can’t fight” because he’s lost a few [fights], but AJ has made it in life.”

“The man can go to the pub every single day and drink if he wants to,” Fury mentioned.

“He could go on holiday every day, he can play with his kids every day of his life, so I don’t want to hear any more of this bullsh**t about AJ is this or he’s that, he’s useless, he can’t fight.”

Fury ended his statement by saying Anthony Joshua made it in life, and everyone should be happy about the fact.

“The man has made it happy for him,” Fury concluded.

Tyson Fury and Anthony Joshua have a history.

Both disputed the heavyweight championship, and Joshua ended with the belt on his waist.

Joshua had some underdog defeats against Mexican heavyweight fighter Andy Ruiz.

Joshua recovered from his defeat against Ruiz with poor boxing and lost against Ukrainian fighter Oleksandr Usyk.

Fury had kind words for Joshua. Nevertheless, he was a fierce critic of AJ weeks ago.
