Joshua's deal included the stipulation that the clash must take place in the UK with Wembley the frontrunner. But Netflix and the showdown's Saudi Arabian backers want the fight - which is pencilled in for November 20 - moved to New York. Joshua is prepared to back down if a series of demands are met.‌But no deal has been agreed - and Fury claims he is running out of patience. "There is still no deal done and it's getting quite tiring," he said. "I've been down to fight in every location that's been mentioned; England, Ireland, Vegas, New York, back to England, back to Ireland, back to New York.‌"I've said yes every time with zero stipulations. The facts are, I feel like you're being a coward. I feel like you don't want to fight and you're just conning everybody. I feel like you've been doing that for years. You've had many opportunities to fight me, but deep down you never really wanted it. So let's see if you're going to man up the final time."Let's f***ing fight. It's a boxing match; you've been banjoed before plenty of times. You've been knocked spark out a few times, so what? What's the worst that can happen? I'm going to f***ing chin you, 100 per cent, but it's nothing that hasn't been done before!"Joshua's promoter Eddie Hearn revealed earlier this week that one of Joshua's key demands - payment of his purse for his win over Kristian Prenga in July - had been met. "We're all good from the last fight, and we're all moving forward amicably," he said. "We don't want to do the fight in the US, but we also understand it has to work for everybody.“We've been banging our head against the wall on that for the last two months. We've set out our position, mainly in concern to the tax situation that will deplete his net purse by going to America, which can be rectified. There's nothing unreasonable in there. If they want it in the US, they'll sign it. If not, we'll be very happy, and we'll do it in the UK."We are speaking multiple times a day but we are running out of time if they want to do the fight on November 20. We will need to make a decision this week."Choose Daily Mirror as a 'Preferred Source' on Google News for quick access to the news you value.‌Anthony JoshuaTyson FuryAnthony Joshua vs Tyson FuryEddie Hearn
