Never one to shy away from the limelight, former undisputed heavyweight champion Tyson Fury has taken another swipe at Anthony Joshua.
No doubt wanting to keep his name in the media spotlight as the build up to Joshua’s bout with Klitschko gathers pace. Fury took took to Twitter earlier today to declare that Joshua was nothing more than a poor man’s Frank Bruno.

Fury, who currently has little option but to fight his battles online, didn’t have wait long for a reply.
In a quick witted retort, Joshua made light of Fury’s ballooning weight by offering his rival two free tickets to attend his April 29th fight at Wembley.
Typical @Tyson_Fury always tlking BS around fight time. Same offer as lst time. X2 ringside tickets dn't bring a plus 1 it's for ur fat ass🙃 https://t.co/pdExyUQTbd

In a welcome turn of events Frank Bruno entered the fray. Eager to have the last word, Bruno declared what most of us were likely thinking.
Namely, that Britain’s top the two heavyweights would better served by taking out the differences in the ring.
I reckon you boys should just save it for the ring…let the 👊🏽 do the talking @Tyson_Fury & @anthonyfjoshua
