The financial structure for a heavyweight title unification fight between Anthony Joshua and Tyson Fury has been agreed to, Joshua’s promoter, Eddie Hearn, told SI.com.
The fight will be the first of a two-fight deal and is tentatively slated for the summer of 2021.
Fury confirmed a deal was in place in a social media post on Wednesday morning.
A clash between Fury and Joshua is the biggest fight in boxing—and one of the biggest heavyweight fights in boxing history. Fury (30-0-1) is coming off a career-defining knockout win over Deontay Wilder in February.
