The long-awaited heavyweight showdown between Tyson Fury and Anthony Joshua will take place “where the money is”, says Dana White.
White, who founded the UFC and new promotion Zuffa Boxing, is a major figure in combat sports. He revealed that he knows where Fury vs Joshua will take place.
“We’re the ones that have done all the deals for this fight. I did the deal for the venue, that’s why I know where the venue is. I did the deal. We at TKO (the company which owns UFC, WWE and Zuffa Boxing) did the deal for television and we did everything,” White told Sky Sports.
There has been much speculation that Fury vs Joshua could take place in the United States rather than Britain, with Eddie Hearn, Joshua’s promoter, claiming: “I really feel strongly that this is something that should happen in the UK and we’ll do all we can.”
White told Sky Sports: “At the end of the day, here’s the truth, you’re going to go where the money is.”
