Fury and Joshua Are Mostly Smiles as They Take Stage Together Ahead of Cardiff Bout

  • On Wednesday, September 30, Tyson Fury and Anthony Joshua are expected to hold their first face-to-face press conference at the British Airways Arc in London, keeping their December 11 fight on track.
  • A dispute arose when UFC CEO Dana White was named as a promoter by Saudi powerbroker Turki Alalshikh, prompting Joshua's promoter Eddie Hearn to challenge the involvement based on contractual terms.
  • Fury's manager Spencer Brown confirmed the boxer enrolled in the Voluntary Anti-Doping Association testing program, resolving a final hurdle after a 48-hour negotiation period brought both sides to a "good place."
  • Matchroom promoter Eddie Hearn insisted White "won't be at the presser," countering Netflix's earlier press release suggesting collaboration between the UFC CEO and event organizers.
  • Cardiff's 80,000-capacity Principality Stadium will host the December 11 showdown, marking the culmination of years of failed attempts to secure this British heavyweight clash.
