Anthony Joshua vs Tyson Fury is all but confirmed.
Tyson Fury vs Anthony Joshua is back on, and this time it might actually happen. After Fury declared the fight dead just weeks ago, branding Joshua and his team "cowards" over money and venue disputes, momentum has swung sharply in the other direction. Sources now point to Friday, December 11 at Cardiff's Principality Stadium as the target date, with Eddie Hearn all but confirming the deal is close to being finalised. A decade of near-misses, collapsed contracts and social-media sniping has brought British boxing's most-wanted domestic showdown to what could finally be the real deal.

Where is Joshua vs Fury?
Principality Stadium, Cardiff, is the expected venue. Cardiff has become the frontrunner after Joshua’s UK-venue clause scuppered a near-done New York plan, with the retractable roof solving a December weather problem and a late finish easier than Wembley’s curfew. Capacity is just under 74,000 seated, with boxing configs historically larger. Joshua already packed the stadium against Carlos Takam and Joseph Parker.
