Tyson Fury and Anthony Joshua set for Cardiff heavyweight bout

heavyweight boxing Tyson Fury Anthony Joshua Dana White Principality Stadium

Tyson Fury and Anthony Joshua are scheduled to face each other in a heavyweight boxing match on December 11 at the Principality Stadium in Cardiff. The bout is expected to be the richest in British boxing history, with a projected £150 million prize pot to be split equally between the two fighters.

However, the event faces potential cancellation due to a promotional dispute. Promoter Eddie Hearn has stated that the involvement of UFC President Dana White and his company, Zuffa Boxing, violates existing contractual agreements. While Turki Alalshikh has sought to include White in the organization of the event, Hearn maintains that such participation is not permitted.

Tyson Fury has accused Joshua and Hearn of attempting to withdraw from the fight due to the dispute. In response to the uncertainty, organizers are reportedly considering a replacement fight between Terence Crawford and Ryan Garcia should the main event fail to proceed.
