Promoter Eddie Hearn doubts whether Tyson Fury is serious about his offer to face Anthony Joshua for the WBC heavyweight title, but will aim to make the ...

“Fury’s outstanding at getting the public to believe absolute nonsense,” Hearn said on talkSPORT. “We didn’t expect this opportunity, but it’s a great opportunity to fight for the world title in the biggest fight in boxing and we will definitely look at it.” Fury’s promoter Frank Warren said they were set to send a “written offer” across to Hearn on Tuesday, with the proposed bout to take place “in the UK and hopefully in November.” “We had plans after the Usyk defeat to come back in December and then go again in March, get active and get the rhythm going again and then try and fight for the world heavyweight title. “The message is quite clear from AJ, we don’t want to get involved in a backwards and forwards, we want the fight, it’s the fight he’s wanted for a long time. Matchroom chairman Hearn continued: “I would love to get really excited about this, because it’s the fight that I get stopped in the street for more than any fight that could be made and it’s a fight that AJ has wanted for a long time.

Tyson Fury vs Anthony Joshua will happen in the UK if the fight can be made, Frank Warren confirmed to talkSPORT.The Gypsy King surprisingly offered A.

You are leaving a huge amount of money behind to do it in the UK. “The point is Tyson wants to fight here, that’s what he has said. He continued: “How we make it work is that Tyson insists the fight is in the UK. Free Bets available upon settlement of the qualifying bet. New UK customers only. I personally think it could hit two million buys.

Anthony Joshua's promoter Eddie Hearn has not completely dismissed the idea of his fighter facing WBC world heavyweight champion Tyson Fury later this year.

“Personally, I don’t believe Fury is serious about this, but if he is, which I said to the Warrens last night, 100 percent we will sit down and make the fight.” As expected, this back and forth has whipped British boxing fans into a frenzy, and there is a chance a fight between Fury and Joshua could be made according to Hearn. With a fight against Oleksandr Usyk for the undisputed title delayed until 2023, Fury has turned his attention to his British rival by issuing a challenge on social media this past Monday.

Fury proposed the fight to Joshua who told his British rival that he will be ready for a world title showdown in December.

The message is quite clear from AJ, we don’t want to get involved in a backwards and forwards, we want the fight, it’s the fight he’s wanted for a long time. But, I know having spoken to AJ, if that fight is there and they’re serious, which I have my doubts about, but for the good of trying to make it happen let’s believe Tyson Fury and I said to George Warren last night, get the details and the offer over to us and I’ll take it to AJ, he’s ready to go. He later claimed he wanted to fight Chisora before claiming his rival turned down £2million for a trilogy fight. That deadline came and went when Usyk ruled out a December date. For me and the cynic in boxing, this smells of, ‘Oh, we couldn’t agree the AJ deal so I’m fighting this bloke you’ve never heard of instead, but no one else was available.’ Fury insists he wants to fight again in 2022, however, and called out Joshua for a Battle of Britain.
