British boxing stars Anthony Joshua and Tyson Fury finally look set to take each other on after Joshua's management company 258MGT confirmed that they had accepted a decision to make the bout a formality on December 3, 2022, likely to be in Cardiff's Principality Stadium.
The battle has been in the offing for years, with Joshua dominating the sport upon his burst onto the world title scene back in 2015 before Fury's comeback from mental health issues saw him sweep up every title possible, which he still holds to this day. Not since Carl Froch vs George Groves have fans eagerly anticipated a prospective fight as much as Joshua vs Fury, despite stars such as Dillian Whyte, Tony Bellew, Dereck Chisora and David Haye offering strong showings in the meantime.
But with Joshua having lost to Oleksandr Usyk last month, there is now a void in his calendar which Fury has looked to take advantage of since - and finally a score appears to have been settled, with Joshua's management making a statement about his future plans early on Tuesday morning.
