Fury vs Joshua Fight Not Happening in Dublin, Hearn Confirms
Eddie Hearn, the promoter for Anthony Joshua, announced that the highly awaited heavyweight showdown between Tyson Fury and Anthony Joshua will not occur at Croke Park in Dublin. Hearn's comments came after Katie Taylor's farewell fight, which took place at the venue with a capacity of 82,000.
Despite Tyson Fury's recent victory after a 15-month hiatus, and his immediate call-out to Joshua, Hearn clarified that there are no plans for the fight to happen in Dublin later this year. He emphasized that Katie Taylor deserves to be the star attraction for a significant event at Croke Park, and that there is no other agenda apart from her match.
Hearn also mentioned that discussions regarding the venue will continue, but the focus remains solely on Taylor's legacy and her recent fight.
