BOXING fans have been warned Tyson Fury will NEVER fight Anthony Joshua… and his return against Derek Chisora is “poor for the sport”.
Fury and AJ were engaged in shock talks over a December 3 Battle of Britain at Cardiff’s Principality Stadium.
Tyson Fury failed to negotiate a fight with Anthony Joshua
Fans have been warned Anthony Joshua and Tyson Fury may never fight
But alas, the negotiations were short lived and opposing promoters soon went back to pointing the finger.
The all-too familiar story leaves boxing trainer Dave Coldwell fearing the nation’s two biggest stars may never settle the score in the ring.
Coldwell said in the Daily Mail: “Unfortunately, we’re now left with what appears to be a Ricky Hatton vs Junior Witter situation, though obviously on a much bigger scale.
“At the time in Britain we all wanted to see that, but it never happened.
“We all wanted to see Joe Calzage vs Carl Froch; that never happened either. I think this is the next one in that line.
“I don’t think it will happen. I think we’ve missed the window for it, I really do.”
Fury, 34, turned his attention to Chisora, 38, after talks with Joshua, 32, broke down.
That is despite twice already beating the heavyweight veteran in one-sided fashion, in 2011 and 2014.

It leaves Coldwell – who formerly coached Chisora – criticising Fury’s decision, having seemingly also snubbed Joe Joyce, 37.
He said: “It’s poor for the division and it’s poor for the sport.
“And what it shows is that Fury obviously isn’t bothered about who he’s fighting.
“If he was, Mahmoud Charr – another joke of an option – would not have been considered.
“There are plenty of other fighters out there – you only have to look as far as Queensberry stablemate Joe Joyce.
“I’m not saying Joyce would beat him; I’m not saying anyone would beat him, but at least it would be more interesting.
“But if you’re not getting Joshua or Usyk, and you’re simply looking for a fight to tide you over, you’re not going to take on an absolute terminator who just keeps coming, like Joyce.
“He’s gone for the easy option.”
