**Saudi Arabia is determined to make the highly anticipated heavyweight clash between Anthony Joshua and Tyson Fury a reality in 2025.** The two British heavyweights have been on a collision course for years, with their first attempt at a fight in 2021 being scuppered by contractual obligations.
Despite their previous failed attempts, the fight is now back on the table thanks to a renewed commitment from Saudi Arabia, who are eager to host this “Battle of Britain” for all the belts.
**However, a couple of key fights will need to happen before Joshua and Fury can finally meet.** Joshua must first defend his IBF title against Daniel Dubois, while Usyk and Fury have their rematch scheduled. The ultimate matchup depends on the outcome of these fights:
* **If both Joshua and Fury win**, the undisputed heavyweight title will be on the line.
* **Even if one of them loses**, the Saudi boxing head, Turki Alalshikh, has confirmed that he is still determined to make the fight happen.
**Joshua, fresh off a series of impressive victories, is eager to fight Fury soon.** “I can’t wait until I’m 50 to fight Fury,” he said, emphasizing his desire to secure this fight while both fighters are at their peak.
**Fury, despite his recent defeat to Usyk, is also keen on the fight, but his future in boxing is uncertain.** Alalshikh acknowledged that Fury might retire after the Usyk rematch, but he is willing to offer him the fight even then.
**With the financial backing of Saudi Arabia and the growing excitement among fans, the world is holding its breath to see if Joshua and Fury will finally go head-to-head.** This potential clash could be the biggest fight in heavyweight history, attracting a global audience and crowning the undisputed heavyweight champion.
