Sign fight contract by Monday or I’m moving on, Tyson Fury tells Anthony Joshua

Tyson Fury has set Anthony Joshua a deadline of Monday to sign a contract for their fight – or forget about facing him for the world heavyweight title.

Negotiations between the fighters’ camps have been rumbling on for several weeks and it seemed Joshua agreed to a 60-40 purse split in Fury’s favour for the all-British blockbuster bout, set to be held before the end of the year.

Fury’s promoter Frank Warren said last week a contract had been sent to Joshua’s camp, with Eddie Hearn subsequently revealing there were still some minor terms to be resolved.

"If it’s not done by Monday, I’m moving on!""He is an invited guest at my party. My rules. So you want to play the game. Come to the banquet and take your seat!"@Tyson_Fury's message to Anthony Joshua
