Kubrat Pulev has once again insisted he will refuse to step aside to allow Anthony Joshua to fight Deontay Wilder.
The 39-year-old Bulgarian was scheduled to meet Joshua on June 20 but the fight was postponed due to the COVID-19 outbreak with promoter Eddie Hearn floating the idea for the two Brits' unification bout in the event of a long postponement.
Joshua has also said that a blockbuster fight with Fury, who is set to meet Deontay Wilder in a rematch later this year following a seventh round stoppage win in February, was needed to determine a single dominant figure in the division.
But with Wilder and Fury set to clash later this year, Pulev has reaffirmed his desire to take on Joshua.
"I wouldn't accept it," said Pulev. "I did it once when I didn't have to do it for him (Joshua) to have his second match against Ruiz Jr. Everything was against IBF's rules, but I compromised."

Joshua, 30, defeated Mexican-American Andy Ruiz Jr in a December rematch in Saudi Arabia to win back his IBF, WBA and WBO titles.
"Enough is enough," Pulev said. "I can't understand why we are still postponing instead of fixing a date and venue and getting to work? I can't wait to win this fight."
Former European amateur super-heavyweight champion Pulev, who was due to meet Joshua at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium in London, said Joshua was not acting like a real world champion.
"I see how people are afraid of me and are trying to face someone else before me," Pulev said. "That's not how a real world champion should act.

"Even Mike Tyson and Evander Holyfield are coming back to the game to show that they are real warriors, not like him. A year has passed, and they always have a reason to postpone, not to fight against me.
"There are two options. You either fight or vacate the title."
Joshua was initially due to fight Pulev at Cardiff's Principality Stadium in October 2017 but the Bulgarian withdrew after suffering a shoulder injury in sparring.
Pulev, one of Bulgaria's most popular sportsmen, challenged for the IBF world heavyweight title in 2014, losing to Wladimir Klitschko in Hamburg on a fifth-round knockout.

Scientists studying penguins in Antarctica were in for a surprise , after they accidentally got high off fumes from the birds ’ poo .
Researchers from the University of Copenhagen found that penguin guano ( poo ) contains huge amounts of nitrous oxide , better known as laughing gas .

“ It is truly intense – not least @ @ @ @ @ @ @ polluting than CO2.
” Besides having an effect on the climate , nitrous oxide can also act as a sedative in humans , slowing down your brain and your body ’ s responses .

Gunners legend Wright believes Mikel Arteta will lead Arsenal 'into the promised land' - but he's not sure whether Aubameyang will stick around to be a part of it

Arsenal are in a period of transition under new manager Mikel Arteta, and are ninth in the Premier League with a battle on their hands to qualify for European football next season.
Wright said he believes Arteta will turn the North London side into contenders once again - but is not sure whether the change can come quick enough to tempt Aubameyang to stay.
"You look at Arsenal and the current plight, you have to say we’re going through a transitional period, coming off of Wenger, coming off of Unai Emery and now getting the coach that I believe is going to take us to the promised land," said the former England striker.

EXCLUSIVE: Top scientists and health professionals warn that lessons must be learned from the handling of the deadly disease before a second spike hits the UK
Top scientists and health professionals are calling for an urgent public inquiry into the Government’s response to the coronavirus pandemic.
They warn that lessons must be learned from the handling of the deadly disease before a second spike or thousands more lives will be needlessly lost.
The experts branded the death toll in care homes a “scandal” and attacked the Government for failing to deal adequately with the first wave of Covid-19.
More than 100,000 people have signed a petition calling for an independent inquiry launched by campaign group March for Change.
Ministers have not yet agreed to a public inquiry but have accepted that there will have to be a moment where they have to look back.
At the No 10 briefing, Culture Secretary Oliver Dowden said: “Of course in any public health crisis there will be a time for lessons to be learned afterwards.”

But Justice Secretary Robert Buckland added: “It would be very difficult now to judge what happened in March, bearing in mind the change in our knowledge.”
Labour leader Keir Starmer has said it was “inevitable” there would be an official inquiry but the party has not yet called for one.
However, it has demanded a probe into Covid-19 deaths in care homes, saying staff and residents had been tragically let down.
Dr Kailash Chand, former deputy chair of the BMA Council, said: “The UK is a world-leader in the fields of science and healthcare, and our NHS is the envy of the world.

“Despite this, we now have the highest number of deaths in Europe and the situation in our care homes is nothing short of a scandal.
“Governments and media from across the globe, from Australia to Germany, are using the UK as an example of how not to tackle the crisis.
“It is time that we, the public, hold this government to account by demanding an urgent and independent public inquiry.”
His concerns were echoed by Professor Dame Anne Glover, President of the Royal Society of Edinburgh who said: “More than 1 in 10 of coronavirus deaths worldwide have been in the UK. The UK government has struggled to deliver an effective response.
“Faced with the potential of a second wave this winter, compounded with seasonal flu, we now need an urgent and independent public inquiry to ensure we all learn the lessons while we still have time to prepare.”
Professor Martin McKee, professor of European Public Health at the London School of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine, added: “We clearly failed in the first wave and, with the possibility of a second wave come winter, we must make every effort to learn the lessons and be better prepared.
“The public inquiry must be fast, independent and transparent to ensure we never again allow our NHS and care workers – and all key workers – to fight this battle without the adequate support and protection.”
