Tyson Fury has thrown his highly-anticipated fight against Anthony Joshua into doubt as he posted a video ripping into his oppenent and promoter Eddie Hearn.
Sharing a one-minute-long video to social media, Fury slammed Hearn for "wanting more money".
In the video, Fury says: "Quick update for you. It doesn't look like they're going to sign the fight, and it doesn't look like it's going to happen.
"All because Eddie and that want more money.
"They've already had that much money off of Turki [Saudi promoter Turki Al-Sheikh] in the last few years. Eddie and AJ—they've had boxing deals, they've had darts deals, they've had snooker deals, they've had everything.
"And yet they've got the audacity and cheek of flea-bitten rats to ask for more money from old Turki, who has given us everything combined in the last couple of years.
"I tell you what, it's disgusting, money-thirsty pieces of sh*t.
"It is what it is - same old cliché a decade later. Keep running, you little cowards."
A response is yet to be given by Hearn or Joshua.
The fight was expected to be held in November with a contract reportedly being signed for the bout to happen in the UK, however, Saudi organisers are pushing for it to be moved to the US.
