The much-anticipated fight between Anthony Joshua and Tyson Fury remains unsigned despite weeks of public posturing, renewed ringside confrontations and declarations from all sides that a deal is close.
According to BBC Sport, Team Fury claims they have already signed the contract. Joshua has not. The situation mirrors a pattern that has repeated itself over the past decade, with both fighters circling each other without ever sharing a ring.
The latest public encounter came after Fury’s April 11 stoppage of Arslanbek Makhmudov at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium, when Fury leaned over the ropes and beckoned Joshua — who was seated ringside — to come up. Joshua stayed in his seat. Backstage, Fury vented his frustration.
“He didn’t want the smoke. He came ringside to make the fight. If it was me, I’d have jumped in the ring. Ten years in the making and still there’s uncertainty if it’s going to happen next,” Fury said.
He added that if Joshua is not his next opponent, he is finished with boxing entirely. Related News Title-winning season with Celtic should be documented — Iheanacho Nigeria call-up boosted my confidence – Alebiosu Gala ponder Osimhen captain decision
