John Fury has called out Carl Froch for a fight at Wembley Stadium after butting heads with the former world champion online.
The dad of heavyweight champion Tyson was unhappy with comments Froch made about his son's boxing resume. Froch questioned Fury's against the likes of Deontay Wilder and Wladimir Klitschko, claiming they weren't as great as fans made them out to be. John now wants to settle the score with Froch by fighting him in front of 93,000 people.
"Video to Carl The Snake Froch. You have plenty to say mate on your little podcast channel," John said. "You know, John Fury’s rung the bell for you again. Got you plenty of content, plenty of viewing figures that you was after. Listen, your mate George Groves said something very interesting.

"You and me, Wembley Stadium, 93,000 crowd. I’m up for that, my friend. Let's put it this way, you’ve had plenty to say. I have. I stand by every word I’ve said. You don’t like me. Let’s see what you can do what about it. Hater vs top father, that's what we'll call this, but it's got to make business sense.

"It's a business, let's not forget that. So get your people to contact me directly, just me. I'm a one-man band. Let's talk about the business side of it and get the contracts drawn up and I will fight you at Wembley Stadium this year, don't worry about that. John Fury will not back out of a fight with you my friend, or nobody else either on this planet."
John has been called out for a fight by former boxer Joe Egan in recent weeks but he took a subtle dig at the Irishman by adding: "Other people don't generate any money but you do, an ex-world champion. People still love you, let's see what you can do. I will fight you at Wembley Stadium, get your people to contact me."
Froch believes Fury's heart isn't in boxing anymore after pulling out of his undisputed heavyweight world title fight with Oleksandr Usyk. The fight has been rescheduled for May 18th and Froch wants Fury to win despite his comments about the Brit so an undisputed clash with Anthony Joshua can be kept alive.
