The World Boxing Council (WBC) allowed Tyson Fury to drop out of the Deontay Wilder match to unify the heavy boxing championships.
“Tyson Fury is the champion, it’s our pride. While Anthony Joshua is holding the rest of the prestigious titles, and is the great legacy of the sport. Watching Fury vs Joshua will be a huge gift. the same meaning as all boxing fans. We fully support this idea, and see no barrier to finding the absolute champion of the heavyweight, “said WBC President Mauricio Sulaiman with Sky Sports on November 29.

Joshua will defend four IBF, WBA Super, WBO and IBO belts against Kubrat Pulev on December 12. By mid-2021, British boxers did not have any court schedule.
The biggest hurdle for the Fury – Joshua match is currently on the world WBC champion side. Fury has not settled well with Deontay Wilder. The American boxer had activated a third match clause between the two, but because of Covid-19, this match could not be held as expected. Wilder’s side asked to reschedule, while Fury said the terms were expired and would rest until 2020.
Besides the match with Wilder, Fury also has an obligation to protect the World WBC Belt, if the WBC specifies. However, this is also on a dead end. Dillian Whyte, who qualified for the challenge, just lost to Alexander Povetkin and wants to rematch in January 2021.
“We are considering the possibilities. Currently, Fury is not obliged to take advantage of any opponents. The only thing WBC is concerned about is the terms between Fury and Wilder, but we do not know the details,” Sulaiman said continued. “Wilder held the World WBC title for five years, with unbelievable knockout and win rates. He gave Fury the chance to challenge him, and deserves the same opportunity. Hopefully, both sides will find out soon. speak out in general “.
Joshua boss Eddie Hearn is also excited about the prospect of an all-English ring game. “Fury doesn’t want to worry about small games. So give him a lot of money to get into the biggest fight of his career. Get all of the stuff out of Fury’s head, let him come see Joshua next year. “, he expressed.
