Anthony Joshua reacts to Tyson Fury outburst during infamous True Geordie interview

Anthony Joshua has told Tyson Fury to conduct himself in a ‘better fashion’ after The Gypsy King hurled insults at True Geordie during their recent YouTube interview. Geordie – whose real name is Brian Davis – grilled Fury on his upcoming contest with Derek Chisora, angering the WBC champion.

Fury faces Chisora for a third time on December 3 after two convincing victories over his fellow countryman in 2011 and 2014. Many fans have expressed their displeasure over the match-up with few giving Del Boy much of a chance.

Promoter Frank Warren has stated that Chisora was the best possible opponent for Fury. However, there is an ongoing debate in the boxing world as to whether higher-level opposition could have been explored for the same date.

Davis challenged Fury on this very subject and got an earful for his troubles. The Mancunian branded the YouTuber a ‘t***pot’ and told him to ‘kiss his b****’ as he shut down the video call.

Now, Joshua has given his opinion on the matter and has told Fury to set a better example for the younger generations.”Listen, there’s one thing being the champion of the ring and there’s another being the champion of the people outside of the ring,” he told SPORTbible.

“We need to conduct ourselves in better fashion because there’s youngsters that are watching us.

“I’m not the judge who can say what’s right or wrong, we just have to try and conduct ourselves in better fashion when we can, when we’re in front of the camera. When we can, just try. Try, try, try, that’s for the up-and-coming fighters.”
