Tyson Fury’s promoter, Bob Arum, has announced a new date for the fight between his client and fellow British boxer Anthony Joshua as Coronavirus (COVID-19) continues to disrupt sporting events worldwide.

Anaedoonline.com had reported that Fury and Joshua are both on course for a unification fight after their next contests against Deontay Wilder and Kubrat Pulev, respectively.

Fury knocked out American fighter, Deontay Wilder, in the 7th round at the MGM Grand Garden Arena in Las Vegas, USA, in their rematch last February to regain the WBC world heavyweight title.

Joshua defeated Mexican-American boxer, Andy Ruiz Jr, in their rematch last December. But Arum believes both Fury and Joshua will contest against each other.

“Joshua and Fury are the winners,” Arum told IFL TV. No great catastrophe, they will fight sometime next year in January or February 2021.”

Former heavyweight champion, Mike Tyson, has predicted that a heavyweight unification contest between Tyson Fury and Anthony Joshua would be a ‘good money fight.’

Anaedoonline.com had reported that both Fury and Joshua are on course for a unification fight after their next fights against Deontay Wilder and Kubrat Pulev, respectively.

“I don’t know who will win between Fury and Joshua, but I would like to see that happen though,” Tyson told Sportsman.

“That would be a great money fight too.”

Tyson Fury’s promoter, Bob Arum, has insisted that a heavyweight unification fight between his client and Anthony Joshua cannot hold because Joshua will lose his next contest against Kubrat Pulev.

Anaedoonline.com recalls that Fury and Joshua are both on course for a unification fight after their next contests against Deontay Wilder and Kubrat Pulev, respectively.

But Arum doubts Fury will ever fight Joshua, who he expects to lose to Pulev at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium on Saturday, June 20.

“Fury-Joshua is never going to happen,” Arum told The Times.

“Pulev is going to knock Joshua out, so why would I talk to his promoter, Eddie, who I love dearly, about a Joshua-Fury fight?

“I think Pulev wins, and then I negotiate with myself to do a Pulev-Fury fight.

“Let us make this crystal clear, I am co-promoter of Tyson, and the other co-promoter is Frank Warren.

“I would not talk to Eddie about a fight without Frank’s participation. Frank’s never even talked with Eddie.”
