Tyson Fury offers Anthony Joshua 40 per cent of purse for heavyweight showdown

Tyson Fury has offered Anthony Joshua 40 per cent of a multi-million-pound purse as talks continue over a heavyweight showdown.

Fury called out his British rival yesterday after insisting he won't wait until the new year to make his return to the ring against Oleksandr Usyk. Joshua responded by accepting the offer in principle, telling his rival he will be ready in December, just over three months after his defeat by Usyk in their rematch.

Fury's promoter Frank Warren has since confirmed he will make an offer for the fight to take place in the UK in November while Fury has outlined the deal in a video posted to social media. "I'm being bombarded with messages about how much I'm going to pay AJ," he said.
