Hearn Sets 2025 Deadline for Joshua vs Fury Showdown.

Promoter Eddie Hearn insists the highly anticipated fight between Anthony Joshua and Tyson Fury must happen by the end of 2025, or it may never take place.

A long-discussed super-fight between British boxing stars Anthony Joshua and Tyson Fury has been in the works for years but has faced repeated delays. 

Joshua, 34, will challenge Daniel Dubois for the IBF title, while Fury, 36, is set for a rematch with Oleksandr Usyk in December.

Promoter Eddie Hearn believes the Joshua-Fury fight will happen, regardless of Fury's result, but the scale of the bout depends on their upcoming performances. 

Joshua has urged Fury to face him while they’re still in their prime, but says he won’t wait forever. With growing Saudi Arabian interest in boxing, hopes for the fight remain high.
