Boxing news: Tyson Fury threatens to 'slap' Eddie Hearn unless they call a truce

Tyson Fury has called for a truce in his war of words with Eddie Hearn - and threatened to "slap his teeth in" if their feud continues.

The promoter has taken shots at Fury's decision to fight unknown German prospect Tom Schwarz in Las Vegas on June 15 rather than fight either Anthony Joshua or Deontay Wilder for a world title.

Hearn has slammed Fury for backing out of a rematch with Wilder after their dramatic December draw - but Fury says the Matchroom Boxing supremo has no right to talk.

The Gypsy King believes they should "call a truce" to bring their games to an end - otherwise he has threatened to take matters into his own hands.

"I understand that he’s a promoter and he has to try and run me down to make his fights look better, but come on, it is what it is," Fury told Behind the Gloves.

"I’m sick of all the bullsh*t games. I say we call a truce. The next negative word you say about me I’m gonna slap all your teeth in for you."

"You know what, it’s jealousy. Eddie Hearn can’t fight. Tom Schwarz would hit Eddie with one jab and a left hook and he’d put Eddie out for a week.

"When you get people like Eddie Hearn saying negative stuff about me, I look at it and I think, ‘You know what Eddie? You’ve never had a fight in your life.’

"How can you call me and say ‘you’re sh*t’ or whatever because you can’t fight and if you could, you’d be a world champion and I wouldn’t."
