The Brits have been embroiled in a verbal back-and-forth for over a decade.
Tyson Fury and Anthony Joshua met in London tonight ahead of their long-awaited showdown on December 11.
However, there have been several doubts over the last few months about whether they will actually lace up their gloves.
Those concerns resurfaced over the weekend before Fury subsequently enrolled in VADA drug testing on Monday.
The pair have also endured several disputes over their lucrative contracts during the past three months.
Early discussions centred around staging the fight outside the UK, but Joshua and his promoter Eddie Hearn refused to commit to a bout away from home soil.
Reportedly, a clause in Joshua’s contract also reportedly stated that UFC president Dana White would have no role in promoting the fight.
It also prevented White from attending Wednesday’s press conference.
During the hour-long exchange, AJ suggested Fury was unwilling to sign the contract unless his name appeared first.
Joshua said: “I got a phone call the other night and they said ‘do you mind if Fury’s name goes first, because he’s unwilling to sign unless he does.
But the former two-time heavyweight champion was quick to dispute his comments.
Fury responded: “B******! B******! B******!
“Behind the scenes, you’ve been crying like little girls over A-sides and B-sides.
“I want this, I want that! You have tried everything to get out of this fight, every move in the book. And now I’ve checkmated you!”
