However, the Brit duo has accused Eddie Hearn and his team of denying to take the last call. That said, there’s only one way to prove them wrong, which is materializing AJ vs Fury for the fans.

Warren believes that Anthony Joshua is eager to fight ‘The Gypsy King’. Well, it wasn’t a firm statement, but he tagged Matchroom Sport as the only obstacle in the path of this heavyweight showdown.

Speaking with IFL TV, Warren said:

“So let’s just try and make it happen. I mean, we want it to happen. Tyson wants it. I think AJ might want it. I think he does. I just don’t think Matchroom do but then I may be wrong. There’s only one way to make [prove me wrong]. Make it happen.”

There’s no denying AJ vs Fury will be a modern-day classic and a fight for the ages. They are two of the biggest heavyweight boxers from the UK and have been considered as elites throughout. However, to retain the hype and possibility, Fury and Joshua need to surpass their upcoming rivals in Deontay Wilder and Kubrat Pulev.

Though the date is still not official, the heavyweight gladiators might lock horns in December.

Meanwhile, Anthony Joshua will put his WBA (super), IBF, WBO, and IBO titles on the line against Pulev. Like Fury, Joshua is yet to know the last date for his bout. Although Joshua holds the favorite spot in the fight, he has witnessed a shocking upset before. Nevertheless, there’s no doubt that boxing fans will get to see some heavyweight fireworks shortly.
