The much anticipated showdown between Tyson Fury and Anthony Joshua may hold in Saudi Arabia on August 14 barring, Checkout Magazine learnt.
The prospect of the match was uncertain earlier this week after Fury had cast doubt over the fight taking place at all when his promoter Frank Warren revealed he was unhappy with the terms of the deal.
That forced Joshua to speak out and demand a resolution – and although negotiations are continuing, Warren is now confident an agreement will be reached.
He told talkSPORT: “It definitely won’t be on August 7 because that’s when the Olympic games are on and that’s gonna be a problem for TV. “Besides that, you’ve got a UFC PPV in the States and UK so if it goes on, it’ll be on August 14.”
