Literally, Tyson Fury is calling anyone in the heavyweight division since he ducked his own plan of hanging up gloves earlier this year. As a result, it has created an atmosphere of chaos in the division. Now, he is facing a backlash from his rivals and opponents, whom he called out in the recent past.

IFL TV reported it on Twitter. It shared the video clip of the German and wrote, “And now Mahmoud Charr has accused @Tyson Fury of ducking him.”

In the self-filmed video, Charr took a shot at Fury with a harsh remark.
He said, “Fury, you are the same sh** like Anthony Joshua. A man is a man, when you say Joshua is out, he is out. You told everyone, you want to fight me now, you are like duck. Take the fight.”
Amid talks of a fight with the former unified heavyweight Anthony Joshua, Fury challenged Charr because he thought Joshua would not sign the contract of the contest.
Why did Tyson Fury create so much drama?
A few months back, everything was simple. Fury was most likely to make his return for the undisputed title clash with the winner of the rematch between Oleksandr Usyk and Anthony Joshua.

The rematch happened. Usyk scored a successive decision win over Joshua and called out Fury for the mega showdown.
However, Fury began to call out his former opponent Dereck Chisora for a trilogy. Before Chisora could decide, Fury offered a fight deal to his British rival Joshua. He gave an ultimatum to AJ to sign the contract. However, Joshua did not sign it.
This disappointed Fury and he called out Charr for the fight.
As of now, no one knows what’s going on with Fury definitively.
