TYSON FURY destroyed the drilling machine challenge, sending a clear message to Anthony Joshua.<br /><br />The WBC champion was filmed hitting the target with his weaker left arm, but still scored a record 993.<br /><br />By comparison, when AJ attended Graham Norton's show in 2017, he scored 848.<br /><br />Although it must be said, each machine is different, which makes any comparison difficult to measure.<br /><br />Whatever the pair scored on the punching machine will count for little if they end up sharing the ring this year.<br /><br />Fury, 34, surprisingly turned his attention to AJ after Oleksandr Usyk, 35, ruled himself out of an uncontested fight to heal an injury.<br /><br />And Joshua has since conceded a 60/40 split for a title shot on December 3 in Cardiff, with the official paperwork to send him.<br /><br />Fury promoter Frank Warren told talkSPORT: “Contracts are on the way.<br /><br />“But I'm not going to go into detail about this because we saw what happened last time with people making statements and all of that and it all fell apart.<br /><br />“This fight won't start until it's signed, but everyone wants it to happen.<br /><br />“There is no bump in the road, so hopefully we can get through it very quickly, but until it's signed, it's not in place.<br /><br />“When you are a promoter, you are optimistic. That's what you do. You're in the business of trying to make events happen, so we're all excited about that.<br /><br />"I'm excited about that as a fight because I always felt like Tyson got the beating from AJ and now we're going to find out if we get through this."
