However, The Sun can reveal the former world champion has told pals: “It’s not over.”. And a £250million Battle of Britain mega-fight with rival AJ is already being discussed for next year, with Wembley Stadium touted as the perfect venue. Speaking after the fight, AJ’s ­promoter Eddie Hearn said the clash has to finally happen after being mooted for years.

He added: “There’s only one fight for Tyson Fury and that’s Anthony Joshua. It’s the biggest fight probably in the history of British boxing. “Everyone will always want to see it. For me, AJ against Fury is the one, it’s the one at Wembley. It will be a huge global event.”.
