Follow usBritain’s WBC world heavyweight champion Tyson Fury revealed on Friday that a contract had been sent to compatriot Anthony Joshua for a Wembley Stadium showdown in September.
Fury, 34, has not fought since retaining his title with a 10th-round stoppage of fellow Briton Derek Chisora in December.
Fury called off his proposed ‘Battle of Britain’ bout with two-time world champion Joshua, 33, last September, saying his countryman had not signed the contract before the deadline.

“…its a fight that everyone wants to see including myself,” unbeaten Fury said in an Instagram post on Friday. Fury was supposed to fight Oleksandr Usyk, but the two sided didn’t come to an agreement over the prize money and the clash fell through.
