I let him do his announcement,\u201d Fury said. \u201cSo, let\u2019s hope forward. It\u2019s an enormous, massive, massive announcement.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>When asked specifically about Joshua, Fury made it clear that the fight stays firmly on his mind.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cVery, very, very excited for this fight,\u201d Fury said. \u201cIt\u2019s been over a decade within the making. For whatever reason, it hasn\u2019t happened before. Let\u2019s hope it happens right away.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Fury then outlined the timeline that might bring the heavyweight showdown to life.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cPotential fight in August and possibly at the top of the yr it happens.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The previous heavyweight champion was also asked whether Dana White could have promotional involvement in a future clash with Joshua.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cOf course. Yes.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Any lingering doubt about what Fury was referring to disappeared when Turki Alalshikh posted a message directed on the British heavyweight shortly afterward.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cYou might be welcome my brother @tysonfury welcome back to America. Big announcement coming by us about your fight against @anthonyjoshua @ringmagazine @netflix.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Turki\u2019s post appears to substantiate that an official announcement involving Fury and Joshua is on the horizon, with Dana White expected to have a task within the promotion.<\/p>\n<p>Fury declined to discover his expected August opponent, although his comments suggest he intends to return to the ring before facing Joshua later this yr.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI\u2019ve got no details on the fight, but looking forward to fighting whoever they put in front of me and getting back to do what I do best, winning.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The potential for Fury and Joshua finally sharing the ring has hovered over boxing for greater than a decade. Each men have held world titles, headlined major stadium events, and grow to be two of Britain\u2019s biggest sporting attractions without ever meeting each other.<\/p>\n<p>Now, following Fury\u2019s White House appearance and Turki\u2019s public statement, fans may finally have reason to consider that boxing\u2019s biggest all-British heavyweight fight is closer than ever.<\/p>\n<div class=\"perfmatters-lazy-video\" data-provider=\"youtube\" data-src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/bs4FBchVzic\" data-id=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/bs4FBchVzic\" data-query=\"feature=oembed\" data-referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" onclick=\"perfmattersLazyLoadVideo(this);\">\n<div><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" alt=\"Youtube video\" width=\"480\" height=\"360\" data-pin-nopin=\"true\" nopin=\"nopin\" class=\"perfmatters-lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/i.ytimg.com\/vi\/bs4FBchVzic\/hqdefault.jpg\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"sabox-authors\">\n<div class=\"saboxplugin-wrap\" itemtype=\"http:\/\/schema.org\/Person\" itemscope=\"\" itemprop=\"author\">\n<div class=\"saboxplugin-tab saboxplugin-tab-about\">\n<div class=\"saboxplugin-desc\">\n<div itemprop=\"description\">\n<p><strong>Olly Campbell<\/strong> is a boxing journalist who has covered the game since 2014, providing ringside reporting and technical evaluation of major bouts.
