Tyson Fury and Anthony Joshua could finally meet.

A target date has been set for the proposed showdown between Tyson Fury and Anthony Joshua.

Fury has arrived in Saudi Arabia for his undisputed clash against Oleksandr Usyk, which is slated for May 18.

He landed in the Middle East without a key family member in his team.

Joshua, meanwhile, is coming off a devastating win over former UFC champion Francis Ngannou and looks set to return to action in September.

Providing the self-proclaimed ‘Gypsy King’ beats Usyk, then Joshua could finally meet his heavyweight rival in an all-British dust-up.

Saudi Arabia chief Turki Alalshikh is the mastermind behind a potential Fury vs. Joshua fight as he’s eyeing it for March 2025, per ESPN.

A monstrous clash between Fury and Joshua could take place in Saudi Arabia or England.

As for the contracted rematch between Fury and Usyk, Alalshikh is lining up the rematch for October 12 or October 13.

But their second meeting will be without the IBF world title as the governing body ruled that Filip Hrgovic’s mandatory title shot as No.1 contender is overdue, meaning he could fight for the vacant belt when he takes on Daniel Dubois on June 1.

However, Hrgovic has been linked with a fight with Joshua, who could enter a potential fight against Fury with undisputed status on the line should he beat the Croatian star if they fought this year.

What’s more, if Fury and Usyk split the two fights, the rubber match could take place later in 2025 after Fury vs. Joshua.

On Fury vs. Usyk, Joshua is predicting a win for his former foe, who has two wins over him.

“I’ve fought Usyk so I can only speak on what I’ve experienced with him – phenomenal fighter, I would say he’s gonna do a really good job,” he said.

“I’ve never fought Fury, so I can’t speak on what it’s like to face him. Only speaking on what I know, I have to say Usyk will be victorious.”

Frank Warren has told talkSPORT that a major boxing event is coming to Wembley Stadium this year.

Earlier this week, Turki Alalshikh, the chairman of Saudi’s General Entertainment Authority responsible for staging boxing in Riyadh, first disclosed the possibility of a huge show at the national stadium.

The idea would be to use the event as an advertisement for more boxing to follow in Saudi Arabia as part of Riyadh Season.

“I’m talking, thinking and studying with Frank Warren and Eddie Hearn to do something huge in Wembley in September as a commercial for Riyadh Season,” Alalshikh said.

On Thursday, Warren joined talkSPORT Breakfast and added additional context.

“As you know there have been some fabulous events in Saudi for the Riyadh Season,” he began.

“And they’re events that to be quite honest we could never put on here.

“They’re just too expensive, it would not work, the books wouldn’t balance.

“But obviously for Riyadh Season it’s part of the multi-cultural events that take place there – sporting events, music events, etc.

“And what we’re putting on at Wembley is basically gonna be an advert for the start of the Riyadh Season next October.

“But it will be based upon a Riyadh type of event.

“So it’s gonna be a super, super boxing event. It’s gonna be something extra, extra special.”

When asked if the show could be headlined by Tyson Fury vs Anthony Joshua, Warren confirmed that this would not be the case.

However, most would expect that – in order to sell out the 90,000-capacity national stadium – one of the two will be involved.

Anthony Joshua comprehensively beat Francis Ngannou earlier this month.

A date has been identified for a potential fight between British boxing icons Anthony Joshua and Tyson Fury.

Joshua silenced his doubters with an emphatic second-round KO win over former UFC heavyweight champion Francis Ngannou earlier this month, to put himself firmly back in contention for a world title shot.

The former unified champion must wait to get his chance at a belt, however, with Fury set to face Ukraine’s Oleksandr Usyk for the undisputed title in Saudi Arabia on May 18.

WBC champion Fury was due to fight WBO, WBA and IBF belt-holder Usyk on February 17 but the bout was postponed following a cut the British boxer in sparring.

It has already been confirmed there is a rematch clause inserted into the contracts for Tyson vs Usyk, meaning Joshua may need to bide his time before getting his chance at a title.

Asked whether or not Fury’s planned two fights for this year will both be against Usyk, his promoter Frank Warren told Sky Sports: “One of them is, definitely! These guys are getting massive, massive purses for these fights.

“The loser I’m quite sure will trigger the rematch clause because of the finances that are involved.

“Next March if Tyson does what I believe he’ll do and AJ continues to win, I’m sure that’ll set up a big fight.”

Joshua is likely to seek an fight in the interim while he waits for the winner of Fury vs Usyk.

This could potentially feature a world title shot if one or more of the belts is vacated after the first edition of the undisputed bout in Saudi Arabia.

Joshua could face the winner of Filip Hrgovic and Daniel Dubois, who are expected to fight each other in June.

AJ dropped a cryptic post on Friday, suggesting he may have already been offered his next opponent.
