Tyson Fury Responds To Michael Buffer's Controversial Tweet

Legendary MC Michael Buffer is getting plenty of grief for his Tweet about Anthony Joshua vs. Tyson Fury.

And the self-proclaimed 'Gypsy King' has even responded.

Joshua successfully defended his IBF and WBA (super) world titles on Saturday after beating Carlos Takam. Following his 20th professional victory, Team AJ now plot his next move ahead of a potentially huge 2018.

While unification clashes against WBC holder, Deontay Wilder, and WBO titlists, Joseph Parker, are on deck, a bout against the former world ruler, Tyson Fury, remains the most intriguing and lucrative option.

If Joshua vs. Fury comes to fruition, it'd easily be the biggest fight on British soil. But Buffer believes it could even be the biggest contest in boxing history.

Fury caught wind of his Tweet, and replied.

Though Buffer was subject to plenty of stick following his original message:

What's your take? Let us know.
