ANTHONY JOSHUA blasted Tyson Fury in a blistering rant simply hours after his obliteration of Francis Ngannou.
The former two-time unified heavyweight champion knocked the MMA man mountain out cold in the second round of their crossover conflict in Saudi Arabia early on Saturday morning.
AJ's demolition of Ngannou has put him on target for an extended overdue Battle of Britain with The Gypsy King, who was ringside for the Riyadh rumble.
However he wasn't in the temper for discussing a domestic dust-up with the WBC heavyweight champion as a result of his pre-fight putdowns of himself and Ngannou.
The fired-up Watford warrior advised iFL TV: "F**okay Tyson Fury.
"I don't like trash-talking individuals, however I heard him say, 'Oh, I'm here to do commentary about these two sausages.'
"Or something like that.
"Bro, that guy that I fought and that he fought is an ex-UFC heavyweight champion [and has] an outstanding story and someone who has changed their life around.
"[He's] simply too disrespectful. So overlook something about him right now."
Before Joshua can consider sharing the ring with Fury, he must first anticipate his Brit rival to have back-to-back undisputed heavyweight title fights with Oleksandr Usyk.
