FURY V JOSHUA will be announced next Wednesday to be

Tue Sep 13, 2022 11:48 am

announced next Wednesday to be in Cardiff. It will be the biggest grossing fight in the history of British Boxing. Cardiff will be the centre of the sporting world on December the 3rd with both boxers likely to earn over £25m. Massive credit to AJ for taking the fight( contracts signed after the Queen's funeral) . Hearn tried to persuade AJ to wait until next year and have a warm up fight and desperately wanted it to happen in Saudi where both boxers would have made £50m each. Press conference expected to happen next Wednesday to announce the fight.

If Wales go through the group as runners up, they will in likelihood be playing The Netherlands in the R16 that afternoon. Cardiff would be carnage. Hopefully I'll still be in Qatar where it'll probably be easier to get a pint.

It will be a mad one in the City that night if we can get 2nd in the group. I'm there for the first two games and will be home for that one if we make it.

Not doubting your word but your saying something that national news outlets are not? When this was muted on talk sport weeks ago Saudi was the favourite given its money power...
