Promoter Eddie Hearn has clarified speculation that Anthony Joshua is close to accepting a £15moffer to step aside from his rematch with Oleksandr Usyk to allow Tyson Fury a shot at unification.
The 42-year-old confirmed that his fighter has indeed received an offer but that negotiations over a deal are not as advanced as some have reported.
He also stated that the money on offer is not £15m, although told the DAZN Boxing Show: “I’m not saying there’s no truth in some of the articles in terms of the process.”
