Anthony Joshua's Contract Delay Leaves Tyson Fury Fight in Uncertainty
AI Summary
Frank Warren reveals that Anthony Joshua has yet to sign the contract for the highly anticipated fight against Tyson Fury, leaving fans waiting for an official announcement. Fury hinted on social media that confirmation of this all-British showdown is imminent, sharing a mock-up image of himself facing Joshua with the caption “New York City.”
The expected venue is the iconic Madison Square Garden, as desired by Turki Alalshikh and the Saudi state-owned promotional company Sela. However, Joshua's camp favors Wembley Stadium, which would allow for a home crowd advantage.
Warren clarified that location is no longer a concern for Fury, who has already signed a contract that does not depend on the fight's venue. He stated, “Tyson's signed. Tyson's done.” Warren emphasized that it is now solely up to Joshua to finalize his part of the deal.
Warren noted:
- “The latest is Joshua's not signed yet.”
- “Tyson's done. He don't care when the fight takes place.”
Fury initially signed for the fight back in January, with plans for the bout to occur this month. However, a tragic car accident involving Joshua that resulted in the deaths of his close friends pushed the fight date back. Since then, both fighters have returned to the ring, with Fury winning against Arslanbek Makhmudov and Mariusz Wach, while Joshua narrowly defeated Kristian Prenga.
Warren concluded that complications arose from multiple contracts specifying different venues, stating, “I don’t do the contracts.”
