ANTHONY JOSHUA took aim at Tyson Fury in an impromptu FaceTime with his long-time rival.
AJ was put in touch with The Gypsy King on Wednesday, just hours after the announcement of his September showdown with Daniel Dubois.

Joshua, 34, wasn’t finished ridiculing Fury for his loss to Oleksandr Usyk last month and labeling him an “idiot” when Saudi boxing boss Turki Alalshikh decided to FaceTime the former heavyweight champion of the WBC.
And he didn’t mince words after Alalshikh told Fury the Watford warrior was waiting for him.
Joshua said, “I’m waiting for you, I’m waiting for you.”
Fury, 35, promptly responded: “Go ahead, I’ll do it. I’ll do the f***ing work.”
Amidst all the laughter, Joshua replied sternly, “No, you won’t – but either way, I’m waiting for you.”
Fury, who will try to get the better of Usyk the second time he asks on December 21, responded defiantly: “I’ll finish the job.”
Joshua reemphasized the pot of domestic gold that awaited the warrior Wythenshawe, saying, “Anyway, I’m waiting for you.”
“Look,” Fury said in response to Alalshikh’s excitement about the long-awaited Battle of Britain. “I’ll do that first and then I’ll fight him there.”

Joshua apparently grew tired of Fury’s repeated promises to avenge his first professional defeat, saying: “Stop using this [points to mouth] and using this raises your fists].”
Fury, who is now back in the gym preparing for Usyk, responded: “I’ll use them both on your face, you big, ugly doser.”
Shut up, former two-time unified champion Joshua responded. “You look like a tomato.
“Put on sunscreen, you idiot. You look like a tomato.”
Alalshikh proceeded to end the call by promising to see Fury on Thursday, which prompted AJ to say, “Hi, see you tomorrow [too].
“I’ll be waiting here too.”
Boxing fans around the world have waited nearly a decade for a Battle of Britain between Joshua and Fury to come to fruition.
And AJ admits he will keep his fingers crossed that Fury gets revenge on Usyk in their end-of-year mix-up in Riyadh.
He said: “I want him to win the rematch, in a way.
“I don’t care anymore if he wins or loses. I just want to fight him.
“It’s dragging on. Fury avoids a lot of people, he doesn’t fight a lot of people, a lot of top class people.
“He needs to move on and come fight me and stop wasting my time.
“I don’t want to wait until I’m 40, 41, 42 to fight him.”
