Will Anthony Joshua vs Tyson Fury Be Announced This Week?

The thread title says it all.

Why this week?

Qatar or Saudi Arabia?

Qatar or Saudi Arabia?

Qatar or Saudia Arabia or anywhere.

I don't know how true, but some report was out last week that the major networks involved in Fury/Joshua were required in writing to state that Kinahan was not involved in making the fight. Maybe that took/takes Dubai out of contention to house the fight?

No matter what they try to do Daniel is and would be involved in this fight. He would be what Tom Brown is for Al Haymon.

In this case Daniel would be Haymon and TR/Warren would be the TGB of the promotion.

I'll guess they get something done in Saudi Arabia by the end of the week.

Yep agreed on the comparison, not saying Haymon has been accused of anything like that. Just how he operates as a promoter in the background via Brown, like how Daniel is now operating quietly in the background via whoever it is.

I think Saudi are the "Frontrunner" Arum has left it in Hearn's hands to get as much money as possible for the fight, since he had a pre-existing relationship with the saudis, at the end of the day money talks, and Hearn loves a pound note (Like i do) and am sure if anyone else comes up with the proof of funds then they would get that fight.

Personally am hoping the second fight can happen in the UK, just to see the fever grip in the weeks leading up to the fight here, lockdown would probably be over at that point, and that rematch (Depending on how the first one goes) would make the British economy a lot of money.

I've always said June/July didn't make sense.

• Fury needs a fight due to being inactive
• Joshua needs another fight more generally
• The fight needs a crowd or big site fee
• You can't guarantee a big crowd in June/July
• Middle East in June/July is too hot

My money has always been on November or December and I'm keeping it there.

The only reason to have it earlier would be the risk that Fury's ticking time bomb goes off. That and the mandatory situation which I'm sure they could overcome.

So I think we'll hear that both are having another fight.

I don’t even think it happens this year if I’m honest.
