Anthony Joshua (24-3, 22 KOs) has been waiting for a week for a contract to fight with Tyson Fury (31-0-1, 23 KOs). The two-time world heavyweight champion accepted all the conditions for a fight for the WBC heavyweight belt at the end of last week.

“I spoke with Fury’s representatives, they promised to send the contract on Thursday. Of course, no one is avoiding anyone, we are constantly in touch and communicate all the time, ”said Eddie Hearn.

“In parallel, negotiations are underway with our TV partners, they are also very important in this process, but the most important thing is the agreed financial section of the fee and the date of the fight,” the British promoter added.

The fight between Joshua and Fury is tentatively scheduled for December 3 at Cardiff's Principality Stadium, where nearly 80,000 fans will be able to watch the event live.
