Tyson Fury reveals he has lost an extravagant amount of money after Anthony Joshua was defeated by Daniel Dubois.
Triple D successfully defended his IBF heavyweight title after stunning AJ in front of 96,000 at Wembley in an all-British affair.
Not many had Dubois down for their winner on Saturday night, not least Fury, who was ringside.
“That’s cost me £150million,” he raged. “The silly c***.”
Many expected Joshua to fight Fury next but that might have all changed now after his latest defeat.
In a money-spinning event, a two-fight deal had been touted that would have been worth hundreds of millions each.
It is one of the biggest fights British boxing fans are desperate to see – though they might have changed following AJ’s defeat.
And the two-time heavyweight champion was swatted aside by Dubois, flooring him three times before he knocked him out in the fifth round.
Joshua’s promoter Eddie Hearn indicated that a rematch could be triggered, though it remains to be seen what decision will be taken.
He said: “We have another contracted fight with Riyadh Season that could include the Daniel Dubois rematch.
“I think we need time. I don’t think [Joshua] could have boxed much worse tonight but you have to give Dubois plenty of credit.
“He was brilliant tonight. He put the pressure on. We knew he would be dangerous in the early part of the fight, and the start couldn’t have been worse.
“AJ will believe that he can box much better and beat him, but Dubois will be full of confidence.
“We will have to see what happens [when Fury and Usyk fight] on December 21, if Tyson Fury wins or loses.
“There’s no immediate rush but I know what AJ is like, and he would love to have another crack at him [Dubois].”
