TYSON FURY would get brutally sent into "retirement" if he were to ever fight Anthony Joshua.<\/strong><\/p>\n Or so says AJ's promoter Eddie Hearn after watching the Gypsy King's scare against Francis Ngannou. <\/p>\n Fury was knocked down in the third round of his controversial crossover clash with the former UFC heavyweight champion Ngannou last weekend but narrowly eked out a decision victory.<\/p>\n Undefeated Fury looked a shell<\/span> of the fighter who scored sensational back-to-back stoppage wins over the feared Deontay Wilder.<\/p>\n And, after seeing the WBC heavyweight champ toil in the Riyadh Rumble, AJ's promoter Hearn is adamant his man would knock him "spark out".<\/p>\n The Matchroom Boxing chief told iFL TV: "I'm telling you and I say it with a big chest and all my heart and now all my brain, Anthony Joshua beats Tyson Fury every day of the week, he knocks him spark out.<\/p>\n "And you can go around and say he's frozen<\/span> out, he's a dosser, I'm a dosser, whatever.<\/p>\n "We saw on Saturday night, we know the weaknesses, there [points at head] and there [points at chin] aren't what they used to be.<\/p>\n "Make the fight, AJ against Fury\u2026 You have to make the AJ fight, you cannot retire without fighting Anthony Joshua.<\/p>\n "But, he'll do the job for you because he'll put you into retirement, I promise you that."<\/p>\n <\/span><\/p>\n <\/span><\/p>\n <\/span><\/p>\n <\/span><\/p>\n FREE BETS – BEST BETTING OFFERS AND BONUSES NEW CUSTOMERS<\/strong><\/p>\n Boxing novice Ngannou shocked the world with his virtuoso display against Fury, so much so that Hearn wants to see The Predator face AJ in a clash of African-born titans.<\/p>\n He told talkSPORT: "I can't believe I'm even saying this, but Francis Ngannou vs Anthony Joshua becomes a huge fight.<\/p>\n "If I'm Francis Ngannou I'm looking at it saying give me the biggest fight possible and that's two fights, it's Anthony Joshua or Deontay Wilder.<\/p>\n "They're the two massive fights for Ngannou, two huge men. But, we'll see, I can't even believe we're talking about this."<\/p>\n Ngannou, 37, will likely hold out for a rematch with Fury – who is set to throw down with Oleksandr Usyk in an undisputed heavyweight title fight early next<\/span> year.<\/p>\n AJ, meanwhile, is still on the hunt for a long-overdue grudge match with Wilder.<\/p>\n
