In Cardiff, United Kingdom, British boxer Tyson Fury said that he estimates the likelihood of a fight against Anthony Joshua at only 1%. The heavyweight bout, as announced, is scheduled for December 11 at Principality Stadium.
Doubts about the fight
According to Sky Sports News, Fury expressed doubts about the agreement being implemented in an interview on his Furocity YouTube channel. He said that Joshua allegedly does not want to go ahead with the fight, which is why he put the chances of the bout at 1%.
Fury also said that during his career he has had nearly 40 professional fights, faced other champions and fought for titles. According to him, arrangements for a fight with Joshua repeatedly failed to reach the stage of the bout taking place.

Contract and venue
The boxer said that he initially signed a contract to hold the fight at Croke Park in Ireland because he wanted to box there. He stressed that he agreed to all the conditions necessary to arrange a meeting with Joshua.
At the same time, at the end of the interview, Fury suggested that the fight could still take place. According to him, he had heard that payments had already been made, so the bout should happen. Earlier, Fury also claimed that Joshua and promoter Eddie Hearn were allegedly once again trying to pull out of the planned fight.
