Tyson Fury and Anthony Joshua have agreed to financial terms for two fights next year, according to multiple reports.
However, the heavyweight titleholders must get past other opponents first before the all-British heavyweight title-unification bout could become a reality.
Fury is expected to fight Deontay Wilder a third time while Joshua will defend against Kubrat Pulev. Both of those fights are expected to take place before the end of the year, although the sites have not been determined.
In this episode of Boxing with Chris Mannix, the DAZN commentator and guest Lance Pugmire of The Athletic discuss the Fury-Joshua agreement and the magnitude of the obstacles.
Here’s what they had to say.
