Anthony Joshua has insisted his amusing meeting with Tyson Fury in the holiday resort of Marbella was not planned and came moments after laughing with his rival’s fans.<\/p>\n
Joshua told Sky Sports News <\/em>about the chance meeting with his fellow world heavyweight champion: “I bumped into Fury last week.<\/p>\n “It’s funny because I was at a pool party, chilling with a couple of my boys, some of my mates live out there.<\/p>\n “Fury fans were there. There was a healthy, sporting divide – Fury and AJ. They were shouting ‘Tyson Fury’ as I walked off. I gave them a gesture to let them know that I’m still here, I’m one of the lads as well!<\/p>\n “On my way back they tried to do it again so I confronted them.<\/p>\n “I said: ‘I’m here for the banter but let’s not make it a disrespectful thing. We’re all just here for a good time’.<\/p>\n “That calmed that situation down.<\/p>\n “Next minute, I bumped into Fury!<\/p>\n “It’s only right me and him will bump heads soon. We’ll put on a great show for the British public and the world. It’s going to be a massive fight.”<\/p>\n IBF, WBA and WBO heavyweight champion Joshua and WBC title holder Fury have agreed financial terms to decide an undisputed ruler of the division in 2021.<\/p>\n First Joshua will defend his titles against Kubrat Pulev and Fury will meet Deontay Wilder for a third time.<\/p>\n But Joshua was all smiles when he came face to face with Fury in the Spanish sun: “He couldn’t get out of the car and offer me a drink! He was just driving down the strip and I was walking.<\/p>\n “I don’t know how he saw me because I had my mask and hat on.<\/p>\n “He’s probably following me around! He blew his cover!<\/p>\n “All respect to him and his wife.”<\/p>\n Joshua appeared earlier this year wearing a knee brace and with a crutch when attending a Black Lives March matter.<\/p>\n He said about his injury: “How am I physically? I’m on my feet doing my 10,000 steps. I’m in the gym smashing the heavy bag, smashing the pads.<\/p>\n “The knee is good.<\/p>\n “I’m around good professionals. My pain threshold is quite high so I’m ready to crack on and do things my way.<\/p>\n “What’s an injury? There is no mental weakness, I only know mental toughness. But when the people above tell me: ‘We want you to get better in this way’, I have to follow orders from the professionals.<\/p>\n “I speed up the process because I live good, I eat good, I don’t drink. I’m back on my feet now. It’s a blessing because I’ve missed boxing.<\/p>\n “It has been a difficult period of my life and I need to channel my focus into being the best I can be – live good, sleep good, punch up Kubrat Pulev in a few months.<\/p>\n “I don’t have solid date so it has been difficult.”<\/p>\n Tags:<\/b> James Dielhenn<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" <\/div>\n\n\n\n\n\n <\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/figure>\n<\/div>\nSummary: <\/strong>
