IBF heavyweight champion, Anthony Joshua, has become embroiled in a war of words with Tyson Fury on Twitter in the build-up to his mega-fight with Wladimir Klitschko.
Later this month Joshua and Klitschko will compete for the WBA title that was vacated by Fury after he repeatedly pulled out of a rematch with Klitschko, with the bout set to take place in front of a post-war record crowd of 90,000 at Wembley.
However, Fury claimed that Joshua was a “poor man’s Frank Bruno” and a “paper champ”, coaxing the 27-year-old to hit back at the controversial former title holder.
