Anthony Joshua fight in Saudi Arabia date announced
A contest all four world heavyweight titles for the first time in the sporting history.
Tyson Fury confirmed the date for his all-British showdown against Anthony Joshua in Saudi Arabia.
The fight will take place on August 14 “100 per cent” Tyson said in a video posted on Twitter.
The WBC champion, added: “All eyes of the world will be on the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia.
“I cannot wait, I repeat, cannot wait to smash Anthony Joshua on the biggest stage of all-time.
“This is going to be the biggest sporting event ever to grace the planet Earth. Do not miss it.”
Joshua, is a year younger than Fury, and holds the WBA, WBO and IBF belts.
Joshua retained his three belts last December with a ninth-round knockout of mandatory challenger Kubrat Pulev but the unbeaten Fury’s planned trilogy fight against Wilder has failed to materialise.
