Tyson Fury, the WBC heavyweight champion from Britain, revealed on Friday that a contract had been issued to Anthony Joshua for a match at Wembley Stadium in September.
Since stopping fellow Briton Derek Chisora in the 10th round to retain his title in December, Fury, 34, has not engaged in combat.
Last September, Fury canceled his scheduled “Battle of Britain” fight with 33-year-old two-time world champion Joshua, claiming that his countryman had missed the deadline for executing the contract.
Unbeaten Fury wrote on Instagram on Friday, “…it’s a fight that everyone wants to see, including myself.” “This time, I’m not going to create a ton of videos and keep applying pressure. the game’s on.
Oleksandr Usyk, the champion of the IBF, IBO, WBO, and WBA, was to have faced Tyson Fury earlier this year in a unification bout, but talks broke down in March.
While Joshua has 25 victories and three defeats in his 28 professional fights, Fury has 33 victories and a draw from 34 contests.
Joshua, who in April defeated American Jermaine Franklin in London on points, has fallen to Usyk twice.
