Fury vs Joshua Nears Finish Line for 2AM Friday Cardiff Fight

Tyson Fury and Anthony Joshua are reportedly close to finalizing an agreement for their highly anticipated heavyweight fight. The bout is targeted for Friday, December 11, at the Principality Stadium in Cardiff. While other dates in late November and early December were discussed, Cardiff has emerged as the preferred venue after Joshua insisted on keeping the fight in the United Kingdom.

To accommodate American prime-time viewers on Netflix, the main event is proposed to start at 2:00 AM local time in Cardiff. Joshua reportedly rejected higher financial offers to stage the fight in New York. Tyson Fury is expected to approve the final terms, which could lead to an official announcement and press conference later this month.
