BOB ARUM stated that the agreement on the page online of Anthony Joshua and Tyson Fury to fight in Saudi Arabia a mirage that can lead to discussions with Deontay Wilder.
Heavyweight superstars are still in negotiations for an undisputed name manufacturer this summer, which he first signed in March.
Eddie Hearn revealed that the two champions had reached an agreement on the site, possibly Saudi Arabia, with three places for the weekend.
But Fury’s American promoter, Arum, now has doubts about the Saudi deal and the fight for super unification.
He told The Ring, “If I had to bet whether Tyson Fury’s match against Anthony Joshua would or wouldn’t, I’d say no. “
Negotiations between Fury, 32, and Joshua, 31, took a position when Wilder, 35, brought his to redemption with the gypsy king to court.
The American smashed the WBC belt in February 2020, but already had a quick rematch included in the contract.
But Fury’s team argued that it had expired in October, allowing him to start conversations with AJ, which Arum appears to have blocked.
The legendary promoter traveled with Fury to California to make paintings about mediation with Wilder.
But former lawyer Arum is ready to turn the case into a trilogy fight, the Battle of Britain will collapse completely.
He said, “A transition to negotiation is possible. “
Hearn has maintained that they never had a replacement for Joshua Bar fighting Fury.
And he warned that Arum’s comments are all a master plan for accelerating conversations between opposite sides.
Hearn told the Mirror, “Bob’s looking to push, that’s how he works.
“He’ll think it’s a little slow now, give an interview thinking he’ll speed up the Middle East. “
“We don’t want to play this game, everyone is on board, let’s just go through the procedure properly.
“Time is running out and if we are on a stage where the site agreement has not been signed in less than a week, we will have to start working.
“But no one has a plan B, which is a smart sign. Bob can report that Tyson is fighting Wilder, but he probably wouldn’t fight Wilder, it’s a fight of nothing.
“I don’t have any other plans, I have plans A, B and C, but it’s all about this fight and it’s going to happen. “
