I do not respect Tyson Fury: Joshua

BBC Online :

Heavyweight champion Anthony Joshua says he does not respect Tyson Fury, but that the former world heavyweight champion is “welcome to enter a ring” with him. Fury accepted a backdated two-year ban for testing positive for a banned steroid in February 2015 and can fight again pending a return of his licence. “What we are achieving as heavyweight champions is phenomenal,” Joshua told BBC Radio 5 live’s Sportsweek. “But for someone in my own industry to discredit it, I can’t respect that person.” Fury’s last fight saw him beat Wladimir Klitschko in 2015 to claim the WBA, IBF and WBO titles.
It came before a legal battle with UK Anti-Doping (Ukad) for a positive test he blamed on eating uncastrated wild boar.
