On Sunday, Tyson Fury (30-0-1, 21 KOs) announced that his unification fight against Anthony Joshua (24-1, 21 KOs) "100 percent" will take place on August 14 in Saudi Arabia. The "King of the Gypsies" had previously received an assurance from the Prince of Saudi Arabia Khalid that the money promised in the contract would be paid. The Briton's statement in an interview with ESPN was commented on by his promoter Bob Arum.
“We do not have a final version of the contract yet, but we should receive it on Monday. Prince Khalid promised Tyson that there would be no problems, and anyone who has dealt with Prince Khalid knows that he keeps his word,” Arum said.
According to unofficial information, investors from Saudi Arabia will pay $155 million for the upcoming boxing event - Fury and Joshua will earn $75 million each, and the remaining $5 million will cover the rest of the expenses, including the undercard fights.
