Queensberry Promotions and Matchroom Boxing

Zuffa Boxing frontman Dana White has no clue if Tyson Fury and Anthony Joshua will ever share the ring.

Fury vs. Joshua has long been viewed as the biggest UK boxing match that can be booked. The problem is, neither side has been on the same page to make the bout a reality. Many believe “The Gypsy King” and Joshua should’ve fought during the peak of their careers, and White is one of those detractors.

During the UFC 330 post-fight presser, White questioned if Fury and Joshua actually have a desire to fight each other (via MMAMania).

“Listen, this f–king saga, we’ll see how this whole thing plays out,” White said. “They either want to fight or they don’t. I don’t know.”

White said there is still a substantial amount of money to be made for a potential Fury vs. Joshua fight. Even so, the UFC boss said nothing can materialize if the fighters don’t actually want it to happen.

“To make a fight, two guys have to want to fight,” White said. “Period. End of story. Contracts and this and that? There’s a lot of f–king money for grabs in this fight. Do you want to fight or do you not want to fight? I don’t give a s–t one way or the other. I’d be happy [if the fight was in the UK]. I don’t give a s–t. Do you want to fight or do you not want to fight?”

White agrees with those who feel Fury vs. Joshua is long overdue, and he hopes the stars align to finally pull the matchup off.

“The fight should have happened ten years ago, is it going to happen now? We’ll see.”

Both Fury and Joshua recently had tune-up fights prior to their potential matchup. Fury traveled to Pattaya in Thailand to score a seventh round corner stoppage over Mariusz Wach. Joshua had far more difficulty in his clash with Kristian Prenga, surviving two knockdowns before turning the tide with a second-round knockout win.
