Fury Says Joshua Fight Is in Doubt Amid Promoter Dispute
Tyson Fury says his planned heavyweight fight with Anthony Joshua is in doubt, accusing Joshua and promoter Eddie Hearn of trying to withdraw over a disagreement involving Dana White. The allegation has not been independently confirmed, and neither a formal withdrawal nor cancellation is established in the available information. The bout was announced for December 11 at Principality Stadium in Cardiff, with Netflix set to stream it. One report gives December 12, but other accounts identify December 11; the supplied information does not clarify whether the discrepancy reflects a different event date or a timing difference. The fight’s current status remains uncertain. In social-media videos, Fury claimed Joshua and Hearn were trying to pull out. He linked the alleged problem to Hearn’s objections to White’s involvement in promoting the event. White had been named as a collaborator with The Ring, whose owner, Turki Alalshikh, announced the fight details. Fury’s account describes the disagreement as the reason the bout could be at risk, but the reports provide no independent confirmation of either the alleged withdrawal effort or its cause.
