The highest category of world boxing could witness the first face-to-face meeting of two of its greatest exponents in the contemporary era. British boxer Anthony Joshua extended a public invitation to his compatriot Tyson Fury to attend his next presentation on July 25 in Saudi Arabia, with the aim of officially starting promotions for his future fight in the ring.

The proposal of the former unified champion was made through his official digital platforms, where he directly addressed the nicknamed “Gypsy King.”

The English boxer justified this call after confirming the existence of previous agreements to hold the confrontation in the last months of this year.

"Come to Saudi Arabia on July 25. I will receive you in the ring if you really want. Now that I know the fight is signed, you are more than welcome to get in the ring," Anthony Joshua published on his social media profiles, seeking to reverse the situation of his last public meeting.

The current invitation represents a turn in the attitude shown by the London 2012 Olympic medalist.

On April 11, during the card held at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium in London where Fury defeated Arslanbek Makhmudov, Anthony Joshua was asked to enter the ring to have an improvised confrontation after finishing the main actions. On that occasion, the Watford boxer decided to leave the facilities without making direct statements in front of the television cameras.

A major deal in the UK

The expectation about the clash between both British giants increased after confirming that the legal teams managed to unify criteria to schedule the contest during the fourth quarter of this year.

According to information shared by journalist Mike Coppinger through his digital broadcast channels, the event is shaping up to be a historic event for European sport. "Tyson Fury vs Anthony Joshua is already a fact! I am informed that the fight will take place in the fourth quarter of this year, in an event that will be broadcast on Netflix," detailed the ESPN network reporter when analyzing the commercial scope of the transmission project.

The feasibility of the billboard has the logistical and financial support of the Department of Entertainment of Saudi Arabia, whose main director ratified the signing of the mandatory documents by both corners.

Anthony Joshua's focus remains focused on first overcoming the physical challenge against the dangerous Kristian Prenga on July 25, a commitment that will serve as the ideal setting for the formal reunion and the beginning of verbal hostilities with his historic rival.
