Oleksandr Usyk has urged Tyson Fury to come out of retirement and fight him for the undisputed world heavyweight title.

He had the chance to fight him and chose not to. “I wanted to win for Great Britain because I know they want me to fight Tyson Fury,” Joshua said. You wanted to fight the elite. You never had the easy fights because you wanted to complete a résumé. “I saw in the eighth round, I saw in AJ’s eyes that he was feeling victorious already. “He’s too good and there’s no shame in it,” he said. Turning to Joshua, he said: “You’ve had to step up to carry the sport in our country. “It was one of the worst heavyweight title fights I have ever seen,” he said. In the later press conference, Usyk dedicated his victory to the people of Ukraine. “I am convinced he wants to fight me. His promoter, Frank Warren, said this month that Fury was showing signs of “itchy feet” and was keen to get back into the ring. I want to fight him.

Fury revealed his cousin had been murdered in an emotional post just hours after Anthony Joshua's defeat to Oleksandr Usyk.

Hopefully, he gets one of them — Usyk — to see if he can unify the heavyweight crown, and if he wins, Fury’s claim that he is the greatest gets a little more credance.

Most believed Fury would return despite his insistence and that appears to be the case once more (at least for now). I want to fight Tyson Fury, if I'm not fighting Tyson Fury then I'm not fighting at all," said the Ukrainian during his post-fight interview. His message comes after Fury told boxing fans that he would once again be stepping away from the sport following a very brief retirement U-turn.
