Tyson Fury has sent a message to Anthony Joshua ahead of today's meeting on whether he'll forego his rematch with Oleksandr Usyk and step aside.
The Gypsy King is seemingly frustrated with the heavyweight situation, as ongoing disputes prevent him from finding out who he'll face, with his fight date rumoured to be just eight weeks away.
According to reports, Joshua has been offered £15million to step aside from his rematch with Usyk, so that Fury can face the Ukrainian in a unification bout for the heavyweight titles.
And while Joshua played down the reports, a meeting with Eddie Hearn is set to be held today with proposals to be considered by all parties.
It was reported on Sunday evening that his decision would lead to a unification bout between Fury and Usyk, with AJ then facing off against the winner.
Fury has been in training for over a month, helping Joseph Parker in his rematch with Derek Chisora whilst also training half-brother Tommy Fury for his cancelled bout with Jake Paul.
This morning, Fury sent out a frustrating message to not only Joshua, but Dillian Whyte, who is the mandatory fighter for Fury's belt, but faces an ongoing arbitration with the WBC - while failing to come to agree terms with Fury's camp for a fight.
A frustrated Fury posted this video on his Twitter.
He said: "Another gym session done, Tuesday morning smashed.
"Tick, tick, f'ing tick, tock - that's the subject of today.
"Is Dillian Whyte gonna fight me? Is Anthony Joshua gonna step aside?
"Let me know. I am sick of listening to these bums - I am sick of listening to these excuses.
"The time has run out the bottle. Cowards."
