Fury vs AJ: Promoter Predicts Boxing's Biggest Showdown This Year

According to manager Spencer Brown, Tyson Fury is set to face Anthony Joshua in a highly anticipated boxing match this year. Brown, who is also promoting Fury's upcoming bout against Arslanbek Makhmudov, believes a victory for Fury will pave the way for the long-awaited showdown with Joshua. Brown describes the potential fight as the 'World Cup final of boxing,' emphasizing that it's time for the match to happen. Fury and Joshua have previously come close to fighting, but the bout has yet to be made. The wait could be extended if Joshua decides to take a tune-up fight first, as he is currently recovering from a car accident. Brown notes that Joshua has two options: to take a warm-up fight or to go straight into training to face Fury. He emphasizes that Fury is ready whenever Joshua is, and it's up to Joshua to decide the next step. The outcome of Fury's fight against Makhmudov will be crucial in determining the path forward. Brown has invited Joshua to attend the event at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium, where he expects both Joshua and Usyk to be in attendance.
