The bizarre stipulation that was set by Turki Al-Sheikh will not be expected to be met.
Earlier this week it was once more confirmed that the long-awaited fight between Tyson Fury and Anthony Joshua will finally happen later this 12 months on Netflix.
Before the 2 British behemoths step foot within the ring to fight one another, Joshua will return to the ring in July to tackle Kristian Prenga, in a fight that has been criticised by boxing fans.
And even though it seemed inevitable that the historic heavyweight clash would happen within the UK, a bizarre stipulation was placed on that by Turki Al-Sheikh.
Now that Anthony Joshua vs Tyson Fury is finally signed, how excited are you?

Fury vs Joshua set to be relocated after Dua Lipa rejected offer
Al-Sheikh bizarrely stated that the fight between Fury and Joshua would only happen within the UK if popular popstar Dua Lipa accepted his offer to perform on the event.
But now, it has been reported by the BBC that Lipa will not be expected to perform on the event, meaning it likely won’t happen within the UK.
Eddie Hearn believes Al-Sheikh would really like Lipa to perform on the event due to it being an enormous show on Netflix, wanting an iconic UK act on the show.
Wembley and the Tottenham Hotspur stadium were the 2 stadiums that were the likely venues for the mega-show.
And now it has been reported by Sky Sports that event organizers are in search of a substitute for Dua Lipa, with the likes of Robbie Williams and Noel Gallagher being mentioned.

It continues to be unclear whether the fight will happen on UK shores, or if like many big fights up to now few years, it should land within the Middle East.
Earlier this week it was reported that ‘The Gypsy King’ is taking one other fight before his clash with Joshua within the fourth quarter of this 12 months.
Joshua hasn’t fought since his controversial fight against Jake Paul last December when he broke the YouTuber-turned-boxer’s jaw within the sixth round.
Not long after that fight, Joshua was involved in a tragic automobile accident while on holiday in Nigeria that claimed the lives of two of his friends.
