Boxing Highlights

Anthony Joshua accepts the challenge offered by Tyson Fury for the 3rd December fight.

British heavyweight boxer, Anthony Joshua finally accepts the terms set out by the team of WBC champion Tyson Fury ahead of a potential fight on 3rd December.

Anthony Joshua's team reported that communication had been halted due to the passing of Queen Elizabeth II.

Fury recently challenged Joshua to a long-awaited all-British showdown and offered the two-time world champion a 60-40 purse and a December fight date after it emerged a prospective undisputed clash against Oleksandr Usyk.

The response from the champions means that the super-fight between two of the biggest British heavyweights has moved a step closer in what has been years in the making.
