Tyson Fury’s fight for the undisputed world heavyweight championship is heading for Wembley Stadium on April 29.
Fury advises rival titleholder Oleksandr Usyk to agree on the London date, as Saudi Arabia cannot confirm that construction of their new stadium in Jeddah will complete in due time.
The Gy*sy King’s choice for the venue has always been Wembley for his British fans even though richer mega-millions purses for both fighters are on offer in the Saudi Kingdom, where Anthony Joshua lost to Usyk for a second time.
Both camps are aware of the chance to become the first undisputed heavyweight champion since Lennox Lewis is in danger of losing if there is further delay to a fight scheduled for February.
Fury and Usyk are currently negotiating terms for an undisputed heavyweight title fight.
