Details of the time and location of the “classic British boxing civil war” between Tyson Fury – Anthony Joshua have just been revealed by famous manager Frank Warren.
The highly anticipated fight, the “classic British boxing civil war” between Anthony Joshua and Tyson Fury, has just revealed more details about the time and location of the fight. This time, the person who spoke up to share was famous manager and promoter Frank Warren, owner of Queensberry Promoter.
When will the “classic boxing civil war” between the two best boxers in British history, Tyson Fury and Anthony Joshua, take place?
According to Frank Warren, the ideal all-British heavyweight match between Joshua – Fury will take place and most appropriately “in March”. Of course, this year is impossible, so Frank Warren’s target time is March 2025. The reason the timeline for the Joshua – Fury fight has been pushed so far is because it depends on the classic heavyweight title unification match between Fury – Usyk on May 18.
“The Fury – Usyk fight is tied to huge financial terms and that’s why the loser will definitely trigger the rematch clause. Fury and Usyk will fight 2 matches this year, that is reality. Thus, the Joshua – Fury match will reasonably take place in March 2025,” Frank Warren declared.
In addition to pointing out the timeline, Warren also confidently affirmed “at least Joshua and Fury will have to fight one match in West Asia and the venue will almost certainly be Saudi Arabia.”
“Looking back at history, the classic matches between Muhammad Ali – George Foreman took place in Zaire, Africa, or between George Foreman – Joe Frazier in Jamaica, Central America. That’s what happened. They fought in places that bring in tons of money. The Joshua – Fury match is the same, they will fight at least one match in Saudi Arabia. The tradition of fighting 1 match in New York and then 1 match in Las Vegas in some casino has been established. change,” the head of Queensberry Promoter, the unit representing Tyson Fury himself, shared.

Before Frank Warren, famous manager Eddie Hearn also revealed similar information. The head of the Matchroom Boxing promotion unit, which represents Anthony Joshua, said that the Joshua – Fury match will be bet on 2 matches, with 1 match in Saudi Arabia and the remaining match brought back to England as the venue. The venue is Wembley Stadium.
Obviously, both Warren and Hearn are very excited with the “2 best fighting cocks” scenario they manage: Joshua – Fury will fight 2 matches. If the time frame is March 2025, Joshua will have a lot of time to prepare as well as prepare his opponent for the next match while Fury is busy fighting Usyk.

After knocking out Ngannou in the second round of the fight on March 9, Joshua is being recruited by a series of powerful fighters such as Filip Hrgovic, Joseph Parker or another fellow countryman, Daniel Dubois.
It’s almost certain that in June or July, Joshua will have a fierce match. Currently, the 34-year-old two-time world heavyweight champion is on a streak of 4 consecutive wins. Joshua’s goal is to regain all the prestigious belts he lost after two losses to Usyk.
