Tyson Fury sends contracts to two new opponents as Anthony Joshua talks stall

Eddie Hearn has claimed Tyson Fury has sent contracts to Manuel Charr and Derek Chisora as talks with Anthony Joshua hit a roadblock.

Heavyweight champion Fury outlined his plans to come out of retirement by offering Joshua the chance settle their feud on December 3 despite having lost his past two fights to Oleksandr Usyk. 'AJ' accepted terms offered by Fury but missed a proposed deadline to sign a contract and the fight was seemingly off, but Fury backtracked by stating his promoter Frank Warren had convinced him to extend the deadline for the fight to be finalised.

Joshua's promoter Eddie Hearn has since vented his frustration at Fury for putting an unrealistic timeframe on the fight being signed. The Matchroom Boxing boss has claimed that Fury, who played down a clash with Joe Joyce, has sent contracts to both Charr and Chisora for the December date at the Principality Stadium in Cardiff.
