Tyson Fury has ridiculed Eddie Hearn over boxing promoter’s claims that the Gipsy King ‘kicked out’ from an undisputed title fight against Alexander Usyk.
After defeating British Superstars for WBA, IBF and WBO belts in September, Usyk is currently signed to rematch with AJ.

But Middle Eastern supporters were leading the negotiations for the Ukrainian instead facing WBC champion Fury in a historic four-belt unification.
But Hearn has stated that Fury was not interested in facing Usyk further.
Now Fury has literally laughed at Hearn’s claims.
The WBC heavyweight king uploaded a video to Instagram tagging in the matchroom boss.
He said: “End up in the gym, I couldn’t be any happier boys and girls.
“I’m in a great mood, for so many reasons. That’s all I have to say”, before the winner laughed a big belly.

After defeating British Superstars for WBA, IBF and WBO belts in September, Usyk is currently signed to rematch with AJ.
And Fury is set to take on his WBC Essentials challenger, fellow Brit Dillian White.
ESPN is reporting that an agreement was reached for Joshua and White to ‘step aside’ – but it then fell ‘after the parties attempted to renegotiate at the 11th hour’.
Feuer, however, retweeted this train saying: “It’s called greed.”
Hearn told IFL TV: “The reality of the situation is that we would be inclined to see a longer-term deal with a plan for AJ.
“But we’re not even at that level. Tyson Fury had the opportunity to discuss – Fury doesn’t want to fight Usyk in my opinion.
“Because he had the opportunity to do it through these discussions and really, when it came down to it, he really didn’t want to.
“What Fury wants to do is go a little easier in March, that’s what he really wants to do.
“Now, he has to fight Dillian White, and by the way, after all this kerfuffle, he’ll lose to Dillian White, he’ll be out Dillian White.
“But the reality is that when it really came down to it, he never wanted to fight Oleksandr Usyk.
“Because he could go straight into a fight with Oleksandr Usik, but he didn’t want to go straight to a fight with Oleksandr Usik.
“But you’ll never hear it and the public will never hear it. You’ll only hear the fury on Instagram, screaming and screaming with a smoking mirror.”
