Discussing the situation, Simon Jordan questioned whether White\u2019s involvement would actually help get the fight over the road.<\/p>\n

\n

\u201cDo we expect Dana flapping his gums helps the fight that also appears to be somewhat bit up within the air?\u201d Jordan said on talkSPORT Boxing while debating Fury\u2019s future and the growing influence of Zuffa Boxing.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

The broadcaster suggested the situation has turn into increasingly complicated due to the varied parties already attached to the fight, including Riyadh Season, Queensberry, and TKO.<\/p>\n

Jordan believes the most important concern will not be whether Fury and Joshua want the fight, but whether the business interests surrounding it could delay or derail progress.<\/p>\n

\u201cMy worry is the politics get in the best way of this fight happening,\u201d Simon said.<\/p>\n

Despite concerns that Fury could move away from longtime promoter Frank Warren, Jordan argued that existing contractual and industrial arrangements may prevent a clean break.<\/p>\n

He suggested that Queensberry could still remain involved behind the scenes, particularly if Fury takes a tune-up bout before facing Joshua.<\/p>\n

Others on the panel raised questions on how a move to Zuffa could affect existing agreements and where the fight would ultimately happen. There has already been speculation that a Fury-Joshua fight may very well be staged outside the UK despite previous suggestions that Wembley Stadium was the popular destination.<\/p>\n

While Jordan acknowledged the growing uncertainty, he stopped wanting predicting the fight would collapse.<\/p>\n

\u201cThere\u2019s an excessive amount of money on this fight for it to not occur,\u201d Jordan said.<\/p>\n

Fury is anticipated to return in a warm-up contest later this summer before pursuing a fight with Joshua, which stays considered one of the most important attractions in world boxing.<\/p>\n
