Anthony Joshua almost faced Tyson Fury in December but talks collapsed
Fury now has his sights set on a historic undisputed heavyweight clash with fellow undefeated boxing star Oleksandr Usyk.
And the Gypsy King insists he has “no interest” in facing off against AJ in the near future.
Fury said: “I don’t even go there anymore.
“No interest in any AJ questions. Zero. Man’s dead in my eyes.
“There’s no business between me and him to be done. Finished.”
Joshua has also turned his attention elsewhere as he is looking to rebuild his career following two consecutive losses to Usyk.
The 33-year-old is set to face off against Jermaine Franklin in his April 1 return.
But the British star’s promoter Eddie Hearn insists his client will be ready to face Fury in the summer if the Gypsy King’s talks with Usyk collapse.

“How about that? Stick that in your pipe and smoke it. He will.”

But if the attack comes in the back, he will stand straight and block the kick using his foot.
Elbows
Elbow strikes are very powerful because they inflict great pain. An elbow strike can be delivered directly or indirectly. Directly refers to hitting your opponent with the forearm, while indirect means you hit him using another part of your arms.
Hands
Boxers use their hands as a shield against incoming punches. They raise their fists high above their heads and point them in the direction of an attack. The attacker’s fist is then in their face.
Knees
Boxers who are subject to a punch to their stomachs, abdomens, or chests should bend at the knees to absorb the impact. Knee strikes are often used for defense purposes.
Feet
If he is being attacked, a boxer must take a step back and counter-attack. This way, he can gain distance between himself and his opponent. Boxers should also keep their balance when counter-attacking.
Stances
Boxing effectively requires a boxer to have a good stance. The way he defends himself will be determined by his stance. It is how he positions himself and where he faces the opponent. Boxers have many options for stances. These are the most popular:
