TYSON FURY HAD CALLED EX-CHAMP A 'CLASSLESS LOSER' FOR REMARK

ANTHONY Joshua says boxers have a “licence to kill” as he prepares to go head-to-head with Jake Paul in Miami in the early hours of tomorrow morning.

The YouTuber-turned-boxer and former world heavyweight champion faced off at a final pre-fight press conference before last night's weigh in.

The comments come after Tyson Fury labelled Joshua a “classless loser” for his reference to killing in the boxing ring during open workouts, where Joshua declared: “If I can kill you, I will kill you.”

Asked to respond to yesterday's comments, Joshua said: “That’s my job. We fight. We have a licence to kill. Many people don’t understand it, but this is what my job is.”
