Agreement reached for the long-awaited Joshua-Fury fight

Joshua - fury

Anthony Joshua has signed a deal to box with Tyson Fury, promoter Eddie Hearn announced on Monday.

British heavyweight Joshua will first box with Albanian Kristian Prenga in Riyadh on July 25.

And then Joshua's long-awaited fight with another Briton, Tyson Fury, is expected to take place.
Fury and Joshua are two-time world heavyweight champions in professional boxing. They have been at the top for more than a decade, but have never fought each other.

Promoter Hearn has announced that the deal for the fight has already been signed, reports the BBC.
Fury has announced his retirement from boxing several times, but has returned again.
