Tyson Fury has expressed skepticism regarding the highly anticipated heavyweight bout against Anthony Joshua, suggesting that Joshua's team has been attempting to withdraw from the agreement since its inception. Fury's comments come amidst reported frustration and confusion from promoter Dana White concerning the ongoing negotiations for the December 11th fight in Cardiff.
This uncertainty casts a significant shadow over the potential clash, with speculation mounting about its possible cancellation. Meanwhile, in other boxing news, Gerome Warburton successfully defended his WBA Continental Middleweight title in a rematch against Nathan Heaney, and Takuma Inoue retained his WBC bantamweight title against Tenshin Nasukawa in their respective rematches. Separately, Tommy Coyle and Derry Mathews are set to compete in a charity bout to support boxing clubs.
