Fury vs. Joshua: Promoter Predicts Blockbuster Fight This Year

Tyson Fury's manager, Spencer Brown, has revealed that a highly anticipated showdown with Anthony Joshua is on the horizon, potentially taking place later this year. Brown, who is also promoting Fury's upcoming bout against Arslanbek Makhmudov, believes a victory over Makhmudov will set the stage for the long-awaited Fury-Joshua fight. Describing the potential matchup as 'the World Cup final of boxing,' Brown expressed his eagerness to make the fight happen, saying, 'It's now time.' However, the timeline may be influenced by Joshua's plans, as he considers a warm-up fight following his recent car accident. Brown acknowledged that Joshua has a decision to make, either taking on a tune-up fight or diving straight into training to face Fury. The promoter emphasized that Fury is ready whenever Joshua is, stating, 'Whenever you're ready, I'm there. Not a problem.' Brown also extended an invitation to Joshua to attend Fury's upcoming fight at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium, speculating that he will likely be in attendance. With the boxing world eagerly anticipating the Fury-Joshua matchup, Brown urged that the time has come to make the fight a reality, saying, 'We've had the starter, let's have the main course now and let's get it done.'
