Tyson Fury has responded after being called out by Oleksandr Usyk following the Ukrainian's victory over Daniel Dubois.
Usyk, 38, produced yet another boxing masterclass as he stole the show inside Wembley Stadium, London, against Dubois, 27.
The Ukrainian was a class above and unleashed a powerful left hook in the fifth round to send Dubois onto the canvas.
Dubois was visibly stunned and failed to beat the count as the referee waved to signal the end of the bout.

As a result, Usyk is now an undefeated, three-time undisputed heavyweight world champion.
Speaking immediately after the fight, Usyk called out Fury and three other fighters, he said: "Nothing is next. It's enough, next, I don't know. I want to rest. My family, my wife, my children, I want to rest now. Two or three months, I want to just rest.
"Maybe it's Tyson Fury. Maybe we have three choices, Derek Chisora and Anthony Joshua. Maybe Joseph Parker. Listen, I cannot now say because I want to go back home."

"They came for a good tear up. So, congratulations to both men. But, Oleksandr Usyk knows there is only one man who can beat him. I did it twice before and the world knows it. I have been f*****."
Fury continued: "I took it like a man. Here is me... not f****** around at some boxing match. I am out on the road running. I am running tonight. I came home. I did my job and I got myself back.
