Fury-Joshua fight faces uncertainty over promotional dispute

Tyson Fury and Anthony Joshua’s announced heavyweight fight remains in doubt after Fury accused Joshua and his promoter, Eddie Hearn, of trying to withdraw, while Hearn said key arrangements were still unsettled. The accusation has not been independently established, and the fighters’ teams have not publicly confirmed that either boxer intends to pull out. The bout was announced for December 11 at Cardiff’s Principality Stadium, with Netflix named as broadcaster. Fury and Joshua are scheduled to appear at a press conference in London on Wednesday, September 30, but Hearn has said unresolved details could affect whether it goes ahead. The fight’s date and venue have been consistently reported, though its status remains uncertain amid the public disagreement. Fury said Hearn’s objections to Dana White’s involvement were driving the dispute. White was named as a co-promoter in the fight announcement, but Hearn has questioned that role and said Joshua’s camp had not agreed to the billing that put Fury’s name first. Hearn said there were still details to settle. The applicable contract terms have not been made public, leaving the parties’ accounts of White’s role unresolved.
