Joshua Delays Signing Contract for Fury Fight

Anthony Joshua is yet to sign the contract for his proposed heavyweight fight against Tyson Fury, as reported by British promoter Frank Warren. Fury has already signed his side of the agreement, but delays are attributed to disagreements over the venue and other contractual details, jeopardizing the long-awaited all-British showdown.

Joshua's original contract favored a UK venue, with Wembley Stadium as a potential location, while organizers and broadcasters, including Netflix and Saudi-backed Sela, are advocating for Madison Square Garden in New York. Warren stated that conflicting contracts must be amended before finalizing the bout, emphasizing that it is now up to Joshua's team to resolve the outstanding issues.

Fury signed his contract in January when the fight was initially set for September, but the date was postponed due to Joshua's involvement in an accident. The fight was later rescheduled for November, but discrepancies in venue agreements remain unresolved.
