Anthony Joshua has shared a very promising update on a proposed heavyweight title fight with fellow Englishman Tyson Fury.<\/p>\n

Joshua and Fury currently stand atop the heavyweight boxing landscape, as Joshua holds\u00a0 the WBA (Super), IBF, WBO, and IBO titles, and Fury holds the WBC title and is the lineal heavyweight champ.<\/p>\n

Ever since Joshua defeated Kubrat Pulev<\/a> earlier this month, the boxing world has been drooling over a potential clash involving him and Fury.<\/p>\n

According to the man himself, it’s going to happen\u2014it’s just a question of when.<\/p>\n

\u201cHow close is the Fury fight? I promise you it\u2019s happening,\u201d Joshua wrote in a guest column in the recent issue of Boxing News (via Boxing Scene<\/a>). \u201cBut until you hear it from me, don\u2019t buy into anything. I\u2019m serious about the fight so when I announce it you\u2019ll know it\u2019s real.<\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019m taking my time because there has been a lot of back-and-forth for years,” Joshua continued. “I\u2019ve been chasing this road to ‘undisputed’ and when the time is right I\u2019ll announce it and I\u2019ll have my mind fully focused on the job at hand.<\/p>\n

\u201cWhen it was Deontay Wilder in my way, that was my focus and he admitted we gave him lucrative offers that he turned down,\u201d Joshua continued. \u201cNow it\u2019s Tyson Fury that\u2019s my pure focus. The offers will be made, substantial offers.<\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019ve fought many champions before so it\u2019s obvious to see we\u2019ve done business with world champions before. It\u2019s no different with Fury, he should take this fight with both hands. The money will be split down the middle.\u201d<\/p>\n

While Anthony Joshua is confident this fight with Tyson Fury will happen, it seems there’s still plenty of negotiating to be done before it becomes reality.<\/p>\n

Do you think the two boxing stars will meet in 2021?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
