Organisers have yet to announce an undercard for the sold out Fury vs Joshua fight. However, rumours are circulating that former heavyweight champion, Deontay Wilder and current cruiserweight titlist, Jai Opetaia could meet in a heavyweight clash.
Manny Pacquiao, 47, has also been linked to a shock return on the card. The Filipino icon hasn’t fought since a contentious draw with Mario Barrios last July.
Netflix – the streaming giant that will air the event – are keen to draw in a large American audience. As a result, the long-awaited clash will begin at around 1am local time (8pm ET/5pm PT).
The WBA super heavyweight title will be on the line. Murat Gassiev holds the WBA ‘regular’ title and has questioned the WBA’s decision to overlook him.
“Nobody asked me or my team anything before this decision.
“I have defended this title in the ring, not in a press release. I am ready to fight anyone – Fury, Joshua, anybody – tomorrow, next month, whenever suits.
“That has never been a question for me. I would not accept the situation when champion’s future is decided on paper, not in the ring.”
