Tyson Fury in Miami to train for fight vs. Anthony Joshua despite venue dispute
Despite the venue dispute, Tyson Fury's promoter Frank Warren said the boxer arrived in Miami and began training for bout against Anthony Joshua.
Tyson Fury has begun training camp in Miami, Florida, as he prepares for a showdown against fellow British heavyweight Anthony Joshua, according to Fury's promoter Frank Warren.
The status of the fight remained in limbo, especially after Fury recently said it "doesn't look like it is going to happen," following ongoing disagreements over the venue. Although both teams have agreed in principle to a November date, the dispute over location continues.
Both British former world champions have made it clear they would prefer to stage the fight in London, ideally at Wembley Stadium. However, the ongoing delay stems from the preference of Saudi-owned fight organizer Sela to host the event in the United States.
"I genuinely think it will happen," Warren told Sky Sports . "I think they both want the fight at Wembley, but it's out of their hands now. Well, that's not quite right, they could refuse to fight. But then we don't get the fight that everyone wants to see.
"They are professional boxers; I'm not going to make any excuses about it. Would I like to see it, would all the fans like to see it at Wembley? Of course they would. But they're in the hands of another broadcaster who wants the fight in America," Warren said.
