Oleksandr Usyk has responded to Tyson Fury’s latest calls for a trilogy.

Fury, despite having signed to face Anthony Joshua next, has recently been expressing his disappointment that the fight has not yet been announced.

Telling fans that he believes ‘AJ’ is scared to fight, ‘The Gypsy King’ has instead targeted a third fight against Usyk.

Despite his team saying that he was no ‘back up plan’, and also representing the interests of Joshua, the former undisputed champion himself has now shown his interest, posting footage of himself on a treadmill saying:

“Hey Tyson, I’m coming for you, my brother.”

The video was alongside a caption reading, “Are you still thinking about me, Tyson Fury?” and the Brit quickly responded.

“Oleksandr, you’re a real man. I love that about you. You’re my brother from another mother. A proper fighting man. You’re still a rabbit, and I’m the Greedy Belly, 100%. But, at the end of the day, you’re a fighting man and I respect that to the hilt.

“This man’s fought me twice, let’s do the trilogy. Let’s get it on like Donkey Kong. Two real men who will fight at the drop of the hat. Proved it a thousand times.

“I am sick to death of s**thouses, making a million demands and promises and delivering absolutely nothing … [Usyk and I] will meet again in the trilogy, coming very soon. I need it all back.”

Usyk has beaten Fury twice, winning and then defending all four heavyweight titles, first by split decision and then unanimously in the rematch.

He recently vacated all belts and is understood to be in negotiations for a farewell fight against former WBC champion Deontay Wilder.

Despite this back and forth, Fury’s most likely next fight remains Joshua. However, the hold-up, due to a dispute on the targeted location, does not yet seem resolved.

Joshua’s team are standing strong on their signed agreement for it to take place in the UK, while the backers of the event – Saudi Arabia’s Sela and Netflix – want a new contract for it to happen in New York.
