Fury says Joshua fight scheduled for 2018

By Daily Sports on May 10, 2017

Tyson Fury is saying that IBF/WBA heavyweight champion Anthony Joshua’s promoter Eddie Hearn has already set aside April 2018 for a fight between the two giant heavyweights next year.

Fury is presently working to get his boxing license with the BBBofC and to be cleared with the UK Anti-Doping Agency.

Fury had a meeting with UKAD on Monday to see if he can get clearance to fight. He’s still waiting for the results of that hearing. UKAD will likely make an announcement soon.

“Eddie Hearn has already booked Wembley Stadium for next April,” Fury said to the Daily Telegraph. “There isn’t another stadium where it should take place. I would fight Joshua in October but I believe Klitschko will take the rematch.”

Fury, 28, hasn’t fought since November of 2015 in beating Wladimir Klitschko by a 12 round unanimous decision.
