Fury: Joshua quit once, he'll do it again

Shortly after the defeat of Anthony Joshua (22-1, 21 KOs), Tyson Fury (27-0-1, 19 KOs) in social media turned to him with words of encouragement, but after a weeks radically changed his opinion, and advised his countryman to end his career .

According to Gypsy King, his compatriot quit rather than was hurt. On June 1 Andy Ruiz, Jr. (33-1, 22 KOs) stopped the Englishman in the seventh round, sending him to the canvas a total of four times. Thus, Ruiz became the new owner of IBF, WBA and WBO heavyweight titles.

"If someone gives up once, he'll do it in the next battle. It's difficult to recover. Joshua looked as if he didn't want to be in the ring that day. In my opinion, he quit. In the gym he can show better results than any other boxer, he can beat each bag or use all the treadmills, but ultimately it does not matter. Boxing is something else. Today, some people are trying to bring boxing under the scientific component. But the only truth is that when you do not have a strong chin, or suddenly start to panic, no exercise or diet will help you", said Fury.

"Best of all it confirms that the two greatest heavyweight athlete of recent years, Wladimir Klitschko and Anthony Joshua, gave up  to such fat guys like me and Andy Ruiz", added the Englishman, who crossed his gloves with Tom Schwartz (24-0, 16, KOs) this Saturday.
