Tyson Fury snubs Eddie Hearn’s invitation to watch Anthony Joshua vs Kubrat Pulev at ringside… and have a Sunday roast

TYSON FURY has turned down Eddie Hearn's invitation to watch Anthony Joshua fight Kubrat Pulev ringside this weekend.

The Matchroom boss was happy for the Gypsy King to scout out prospective opponent Joshua as he puts his world titles on the line against the Bulgarian.

Hearn even extended the invite to take in a Sunday roast at his house.

But Fury has turned down a trip to Wembley Arena as he will be too busy 'working and grafting as usual'.

The 32-year-old uploaded a video to Twitter saying: "This is Tyson Fury, the Gypsy King.

"Just a quick one guys, I will not be attending any boxing this weekend.

"For all the rumours this weekend that I'll be attending some boxing, I will not be.

"Don't expect fireworks, don't expect any action from the Gypsy King because I'll be grafting, I'll be working as usual, always staying fit and ready.

"Good night and god bless."

Despite Fury announcing back in March that two fights against Joshua had been 'agreed', there has yet to be any confirmation.

And Joshua seems sceptical that the Battle of Britain will happen next year.

Speaking to , the 31-year-old said: "When I look at Fury, great talent, but I don't know whether he's coming or going.

"He announced he was going to fight me, then the deal didn't get signed and we're not fighting.

"I don't know what will happen in 2021 but if I was to bet all my money on it I would say Usyk because he is with Matchroom."

Fury is also fuming at Joshua's cheeky offer to turn him into a 'superstar' and raged: 'I'm only interested in smashing your face in'.

AJ recently urged his rival to sign with Eddie Hearn's Matchroom promotion stable and his own 258 Management group.

In response, Fury - who has starred in an ITV documentary about his family and released an Xmas song with Robbie Williams - said: "Anthony Joshua, has it ever dawned on you I’m not interested in being a superstar, or famous?

"I’m a fighting man & only interested in smashing your face in, u keep the stardom, I’ll stay real, #youbigdosser I’m coming for u superstar, tick tock tick tock."
