LONDON — Promoter Frank Warren expects the long-awaited heavyweight clash between Tyson Fury and Anthony Joshua to happen this November, though final details remain under wraps.
Initial plans favored a homecoming bout at Wembley Stadium, but complications over scheduling start times for a lucrative global audience have heavily tilted momentum toward a United States venue, with New York’s Madison Square Garden emerging as the frontrunner for a targeted November 20 date.
However, venue logistics continue to see friction. While organizers and Netflix have explored a major US spectacle, Joshua’s camp—led by promoter Eddie Hearn—maintains that a strict UK-venue clause was inserted into their contractual agreement, setting up a potential tug-of-war over location.

Warren noted that the ultimate authority on timing and venue rests with His Excellency Turki Alalshikh, who will formally make the announcement.
Despite debates surrounding location and recent warm-up performances, Warren insists there is no reason for a delay into 2027. Both fighters will enter full training camps by early September, setting the stage for an explosive encounter between two of Britain’s most iconic modern heavyweights.
