Joshua’ll lose to Usyk again unless I coach him- Fury

Tyson Fury has suggested that Anthony Joshua’s new coach, Robert Garcia, will not help ‘AJ’ beat Oleksandr Usyk this summer, insisting he’s the best man to coach Joshua.

World heavyweight champion Usyk beat Joshua in front of a sell-out crowd in London last September to claim the WBA, WBO, IBF and IBO belts.

Joshua is set for a rematch with Usyk this August, and the Briton has recruited Garcia to work alongside Angel Fernandez, while the 32-year-old’s long-time trainer Rob McCracken has stepped away from the camp.

“Unless Anthony Joshua gets his a** up to Morecambe and lets me train him for this fight, Robert Garcia and 10 men like him will not make him beat Usyk,” Fury said in an interview on Queensberry Promotions’ YouTube channel.

“Because one, they don’t know him; two, they don’t know what he’s got in his engine; and three, he’s not a little Mexican who can go toe to toe with someone for 15 rounds. If he gets on Usyk from Round 1 and tries to push and be aggressive, he’ll be gassed out after four rounds and get stopped in seven.

“But if he comes to Morecambe Bay and I teach him how to be a real fighting man for 12 rounds and how to deal with these little middleweight people, then he will get a win. But other than that, I see him getting beaten again. Two in a row, baby, and it’s over.

“But if he wants to resurrect his career, please come up to the man who’s never lost a fight in his life, been undefeated for 13 years and retired as only the second heavyweight in history to be on top of the game – won every belt in history there is to win.”
