Where you at? Cleared Fury calls out Joshua image

Tyson Fury wasted no time in calling out heavyweight champion Anthony Joshua after agreeing a resolution with United Kingdom Anti-Doping (UKAD).

UKAD on Tuesday announced it had agreed to bring an end to proceedings against Fury, who had his licence revoked in October 2016 amid allegations of anti-doping violations.

A two-year period of ineligibility has been backdated to match a provisional suspension imposed on the 29-year-old and will be lifted this week.

Should Fury regain his licence from the British Boxing Board of Control, he is likely to target a bout with Anthony Joshua, who this year followed his compatriot's November 2015 example by defeating Wladimir Klitschko.

Despite gaining a significant amount of weight during his hiatus, Fury has regularly goaded would-be opponent Joshua on social media and did so again on Tuesday.

In a Twitter post directed at Joshua, Fury wrote: "where you at boy? I'm coming for you punk ent no1 blocking my path now!"
