Tyson Fury has fired back at Anthony Joshua's "fraud" claim with the pair of world champions going back and forth in a heated Twitter war.

Joshua hit out at Fury, calling him a liar in response to reports suggesting their undisputed bout is off.

He tweeted: "The world now sees you for the fraud you are. You've let boxing down!

"You lied to the fans and led them on. Used my name for clout not a fight. Bring me any championship fighter who can handle their business correctly."

The self-proclaimed 'Gypsy King' wasted no time in responding, offering to fight 'AJ' this weekend in a bareknuckle fight.

He wrote: "Your more full of shit that Eddie, Spouting absolute shite! your full team knew there was an Arbitration going on, it was out of my hands! but i tell you what if i'm a fraud let's fight this weekend bare knuckles till 1 man quits? let's put up 20 mill each!!!"

Joshua responded: "If there was an arbitration going on, why announce to the world we are fighting! The fight was signed! UNDISPUTED

"Bare knuckle? You're a good kid, don't play with me Luke! I'll slap your bald head & you'll do nothing! Waste man."

Fury continued to respond, tweeting: "Not going in to the details on line! you'll slap me about will you dosser please come and try Bum, i'm waiting...

"Femi AKA Bottlejob! 24/7 365. Ready. i'll smoke wilder first then you will get yours aswell. #GK."

Once again, Joshua responded as he shared a clip of a brawl from the Canelo Alvarez vs. Billy Joe Saunders fight - which shows Fury trying to break it up from behind the barriers.

He wrote: "You're not about that bare knuckle life.

"A barrier held you back, not even a bouncer!"

All this hype for nothing with Joshua and Fury unlikely to be fighting each other this summer.
