Fury and Joshua Set for Boxing's Ultimate Showdown This Year
According to manager Spencer Brown, Tyson Fury is on track to face Anthony Joshua in a highly anticipated bout later this year. Brown, who is also promoting Fury's upcoming fight against Arslanbek Makhmudov, believes a victory for Fury will pave the way for the long-awaited showdown with Joshua. Describing the potential fight as the 'World Cup final of boxing,' Brown expressed his enthusiasm, saying it would be 'phenomenal.' The two boxing giants have come close to facing each other before, but the fight has yet to materialize. If Joshua decides to take a warm-up bout first, the wait could be extended. However, Brown remains optimistic, stating that the fight will happen this year. Joshua is currently recovering from a car accident and has recently beaten YouTuber Jake Paul in a December bout. Brown acknowledges that Joshua has two options: to take a warm-up fight or to go straight into training to face Fury. The promoter has invited Joshua to attend Fury's upcoming fight at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium, saying, 'We've invited him, he'll be there probably.' With the stage set for a thrilling showdown, boxing fans are eagerly awaiting the ultimate clash between Fury and Joshua.
