Boxing fans seem happy about Tyson Fury and Anthony Joshua finally putting their heavyweight title fight on papers, as they are scheduled to meet in two back-to-back clashes. However, Queensberry Promotions Kingpin Frank Warren isn’t pleased with the announcement.

While Eddie Hearn single-handedly broke the news from his end, Warren clarified that he prefers a joint announcement. He is happy that the heavyweight matchup is finally taking the right turn. But Warren seems to have expected a different type of confirmation from the recent scenario. He connected with Talk Sport and bashed Eddie Hearn for revealing the news this early.

“Everybody signed an agreement that there would be no announcements unless they were joint announcements and that came out the blue yesterday,” said Frank Warren.

Meanwhile, the official fight date, venue, and many more factors surround the heavyweight title unification fight. As nothing has been fixed by now, Warren has hesitated to confirm Fury vs Joshua officially.

Speaking on it, Warren added, “We are all not happy, but it is out there now – there is nothing we can do about that. But there is a long way to go yet in as much we have to sort out venues. We have a couple venues we are looking at and that is where we are.”

But the fight seems to be happening this year with an immediate rematch on the line. So, it’s legitimate to hype the matchup, especially when it is finally on the line after years of advertisement.

“I believe it will happen when they get in the ring. We’ve still got a way to go. But everybody is on the same page to make this work. We are all collectively working to get a venue sorted now. It is the biggest fight ever in British boxing, bar none,” said Warren.

Meanwhile, Tyson Fury and Anthony Joshua haven’t spoken regarding the issue. We can expect them to open up, only after there’s an official fight date. Do you think the fight is going to happen anytime sooner?
