TYSON FURY claims that Anthony Joshua is in complete disarray, which casts doubt on the likelihood of their much-anticipated British showdown.
This is primarily because the Gypsy King is currently focused on a trilogy against Oleksandr Usyk.
The Ukrainian fighter holds a 1-0 advantage after unexpectedly triumphing over Fury to seize the undisputed world heavyweight titles in May.
Nonetheless, Fury is confident that a victory against Usyk in Riyadh on Saturday will pave the way for an eagerly awaited trilogy.
He declared: “When I come out on top on Saturday, I firmly believe there will be a trilogy next year, without question.”
“Joshua’s in tatters.
“He needs to rebuild after his last fight.
“But getting to face Usyk on Saturday, and potentially again, would be phenomenal for me.”
AJ was expected to win against Daniel Dubois to secure a match with the Gypsy King in 2025.
However, the Watford star suffered a devastating fifth-round knockout and declined a rematch.

Fury expressed his anger, labeling the London 2012 champion a “silly c***” for costing him £150 million.
Now, he aims for the Usyk trilogy to be remembered as one of the great matchups alongside Muhammad Ali vs. Joe Frazier.
Fury told Al Arabiya: “This isn’t about seeking revenge; it’s just me dominating him.
“There’s no way I’m backing down from this.
“All great rivalries feature trilogies. That’s a fact.”
In August, Francis Ngannou warned both fighters to think twice before facing each other.
He asserted that neither fighter truly wants the confrontation, as he couldn’t determine a winner in their hypothetical bout.
Meanwhile, Fury’s upcoming rival Usyk bizarrely called out Arsenal legend Thierry Henry.
The Frenchman humorously replied, stating: “Sometimes you need to stay in your lane, and I will stay in my lane.”
