Tyson Fury vs Anthony Joshua: No confirmed venue for heavyweight super-fight but no danger of collapse, says Frank Warren

Tyson Fury’s heavyweight super-fight with Anthony Joshua is not in danger of collapse, insists Frank Warren.

Fury and Joshua are both former world champions and long-time rivals who have been on the brink of boxing before, only to see previous efforts come to nothing.

The British stars have agreed to box later in 2026 but no date or venue has been confirmed, with mounting speculation that the contest could be held in the US rather than the UK.

But Fury vs Joshua could still potentially take place in a British stadium. "Nothing's been decided yet," Frank Warren, Fury's promoter, told Sky Sports.

"Sela, who the contract's with with Tyson, and I assume the same with AJ, they obviously have their preference where it will go. Netflix, who will broadcast it, they're going to have their preference. At the end of the day everybody has got to agree and be satisfied."

Regardless of location, Warren is adamant that Fury-Joshua will go ahead this year, as long as both Fury and Joshua win their respective warm-up bouts.

Joshua is taking a tune-up bout in Jeddah against Kristian Prenga on July 25. Fury is looking to box again himself before meeting Joshua, but there is as yet no confirmed date or venue for that, either.

Fury and Joshua must win their warm-up bouts, but then they should fight each other, potentially in November

"It's on, the fight is on - unless either of them get beaten in these two fights, they're going to have the fight is on, no problems," Warren said.

"The one thing is they've both signed up for a fight. AJ's got his fight in July, and Tyson I believe will have a [warm-up] fight, I don't know where it will be yet or the date for it and once they're out the way their fight will go late autumn.

"I don't see any problems in getting this fight on. Everybody will get satisfied," Warren added. "Let them get their respective fights out the way - once that's done, then there will be an announcement."
