Tyson Fury‑Anthony Joshua Fight Contract Mandates UK Venue

Boxing promoters confirm that the heavyweight showdown between Tyson Fury and Anthony Joshua is contractually bound to be held in the United Kingdom. Eddie Hearn reiterated that the agreement explicitly requires a UK location, with Wembley Stadium in London identified as the likely venue for a November bout. The contract also includes a clause protecting the fighters’ demand for a British site, and any relocation would require renegotiation with promoter Turki Alalshikh, who is financing the event.

Separate comments from John Fury, father of Tyson, suggested that mixed‑martial‑arts promoter Dana White could be considered for promotion, though no official change has been announced. Rumors of a U.S. venue have been dismissed, reinforcing the fight’s status as the biggest in recent British boxing history.
