Story summary

Tyson Fury accused Anthony Joshua and his promoter Eddie Hearn of trying to pull out of their scheduled heavyweight boxing match set for December 11 at Cardiff's Principality Stadium. The fight, which was announced earlier this week with the involvement of Saudi boxing powerbroker Turki Alalshikh's The Ring and UFC president Dana White via Netflix, is now in jeopardy due to a row between Hearn and White over contract terms. Fury claims that Hearn's reluctance to work with White has put the bout at risk. A replacement fight between Terence Crawford and Ryan Garcia, or potentially another match featuring Fury, could be lined up if the Joshua vs. Fury event is canceled.
