Ever since Anthony Joshua‘s win over Kubrat Pulev, his fans have started aligning him with fellow Brit Tyson Fury. It is set to be the most cracking battle of this decade, and predominantly the best battle of the heavyweight division. Both their promotions are already in talks to stage this event in the best possible way.
In a recent Ringside Toe2Toe boxing podcast, Joshua’s promoter, Eddie Hearn talked about the probable dates of this fight.
“To make this fight, we need to go somewhere that’s realistic,” he said.

“We need to go somewhere where there’s going to be enough money on the table to make both guys say, ‘Yeah, let’s go!'”
Hearn acknowledged the importance of this fight and knows what responsibilities he carries to make it come to life. He asserted that Joshua has already started training for the ‘Gypsy King’ and his eyes keenly set on the pot of gold. The Matchroom supremo is in intense discussions with Fury’s promoter, Bob Arum, and he has already hinted at a positive outcome for this fight.
“We are drafting contracts and we don’t have a signed agreement yet. But I’m confident and, May (or) early June, you will see that fight,” Hearn concluded.
