Fury compares Joshua’s reaction to Dubois’ power with Usyk, Hrgovic, Miller, and Wardley
Tyson Fury took another shot at Anthony Joshua after Daniel Dubois stopped Fabio Wardley in Manchester on Saturday night. Fury argued Joshua reacted worse to Dubois’ punching power than every other recent heavyweight opponent he has faced.
“Dubois fought Big Baby Miller, stopped him but never put him down,” Fury told Mike Coppinger. “Then he fought Hrgovic, stopped him, but never put him down.
“He fought Wardley in an unbelievable fight, stopped him, but never put him down. He hit Usyk with some big bombs, but never put him over. He fights Anthony Joshua, pummels him, and puts him to the floor five times.”
Fury then mocked Joshua’s punch resistance while laughing during the interview.
“I’m not saying Anthony Joshua is chin-less, but they’re the facts. Take that as you wish and as you will,” said Fury.
“Everyone else never went over. Not a singular person. Big Baby Miller, Hrgovic, Usyk or Wardley. But Joshua goes down five times. Chinny, get up, plank.”
Joshua was dropped multiple times before being stopped in the fifth round by Dubois in their heavyweight fight in September 2024.
Tyson Fury makes a great point here. Will he put Anthony Joshua way too inside the distance? pic.twitter.com/VJ9Kjbt2Lh

Fury and Joshua are still expected to meet later this year in one of boxing’s biggest all-British heavyweight fights.
‘The Gypsy King’ Fury has continued taking public shots at Joshua while the two heavyweights move closer toward their long-awaited fight later this year.
Both fighters are still expected to take tune-up bouts first, with Joshua already scheduled to face Kristian Prenga in July and Fury likely returning during the summer before their reported Netflix showdown later in 2026.
The Fury-Joshua fight is expected to take place in November as part of a Riyadh Season event following years of failed negotiations.
