Cardiff's Principality Stadium Considered for Joshua-Fury Fight

The anticipated heavyweight boxing match between Anthony Joshua and Tyson Fury is being considered for Cardiff's Principality Stadium as a potential venue. This development arises amid uncertainty regarding whether the fight would occur in the UK or the US, with Madison Square Garden in New York previously favored for its commercial appeal.

Cardiff's venue would allow the fight to remain in Britain while addressing a significant issue: the event's start time. The Principality Stadium typically enforces a 10:30pm curfew, which poses a challenge for scheduling.

However, organizers are reportedly seeking an exemption to extend the event into the early hours, with the main fight possibly starting around 2am UK time. This timing would be unusual for British fans but aligns better with the evening broadcast window in the United States, making it more appealing for Netflix to present the Joshua-Fury fight to American audiences.
