This is a message to @anthonyjoshua.
My promoter Frank Warren convinced me to let Queensberry carry on negotiating with your team this week, despite me knowing that you were never going to do this fight… pic.twitter.com/XpcHOpZJzk

Fury has posted a video on Twitter calling for Joshua to give British fans what they want, setting a deadline for the end of today.
"Right, Anthony Joshua, where do we start?" he said.
"So, the deadline was Monday. Frank Warren asked me, and convinced me, to let it carry on for another couple of days - today is Thursday."
He continued, "Let the British fans have what they want.
"There's no more running, you have to fight me. You can not escape.
"The Fury is coming!"
Joshua has an important decision to make, following back-to-back defeats against Oleksandr Uysk, leaving his place in the division in jeopardy.
