Anthony Joshua made the startling revelation that he has joined forces with Tyson Fury’s uncle, Peter, ahead of their eagerly-anticipated super-fight in Cardiff in December. Never has the calling of a sporting press conference agitated as much, if not more, attention than the event itself. Without putting Fury and Joshua into the same room in London on Wednesday evening there would have been no chance of them sharing a ring in Cardiff two months from now. Never has a promo prompted so many startling revelations, either. We might never have known that Fury’s estranged uncle is advising AJ on how to prevent Tyson beating him. Traveller families are usually bonded by such fierce loyalties that we can only wonder about the tensions around the camp fire.‘Not to worry,’ said the Gypsy King about the defection. ‘I haven’t spoken to him for years.’ Nor might we have learned that Joshua took a mind-blowing pay cut in order to haul the Battle of Britain back home from the clutches of New York. Even though the ritual stare down was lengthy the chatter was amicable and ended in smiles When they took to the stage there were very few of the histrionics which are the trademark of most of Tyson Fury’s ticket-selling appearancesHow much of a purse deduction? ‘Twelve figures’ declared his promoter Eddie Hearn. That’s £10million at least.AJ shrugged and cited another fringe benefit picked up during the maelstrom of doubt as to whether this fight between a pair of British world heavyweight champions would ever take place. He also added Fury’s former trainer Ben Davison to his team.Joshua said: ‘Ben’s pinpointing details which will make the difference on the night.’Fury replied: ‘Ben can’t put muscles on that suspect chin.’ He could not resist reminding everyone that Davison has just returned from Las Vegas where he presided over Conor Benn’s two-round devastation by America’s great Latin hope, Ryan Garcia.When they took to the stage there were very few of the histrionics which are the trademark of most of Fury’s ticket-selling appearances.Instead he advertised ‘probably the greatest fight boxing’s ever seen if you factor in the commercial aspect’.Which includes the US$150million split equally between the two of them as they put an end to 12 years of public waiting for this fight. Joshua said: ‘Both of us want to do British boxing proud.’Even though the ritual stare down was lengthy the chatter was amicable and ended in smiles with Fury inviting Joshua to ‘a pint of Guinness as soon as the fight over, win lose or draw’. Well, they are ten weeks away from them putting on their fight faces.
