And it appears he is ready to walk away from a series of bouts with AJ worth a combined £500MILLION.
But Joshua’s promoter Hearn is not so convinced and claimed he has not even spoke to AJ about Fury’s bombshell retirement.
He told iFL TV: “I haven’t. Nope. Listen, one, we don’t really take it too seriously. Two, if it is serious there’s nothing we can do about it anyway.

He said: “He could have been doing it because he’s got the hump. He could have been doing it for some attention.
“He could have been doing it because it’s true. What’s the point in guessing?”
