Anthony Joshua and Tyson Fury have agreed on financial terms on a two-fight deal, according to promoter Eddie Hearn.

The two world champions will likely meet next year assuming they both retain their titles.

Joshua is due to take on Kubrat Pulev later this year while Fury is scheduled to take on Deontay Wilder a third time.

The unification clashes would see the first undisputed heavyweight champion crowned since Lennox Lewis.

Fury is the unbeaten WBC heavyweight champion and Joshua holds the IBF, WBA and WBO titles. Whyte is due a mandatory shot at Fury’s belt by February 2021.

Before the undisputed title fight can take place, Fury is contracted to face Deontay Wilder for a third time and Joshua will meet mandatory challenger Kubrat Pulev.

Asked about a possible location for the Joshua vs Fury fight, Hearn added: “There are discussions with various sites.

“From a common-sense point of view and without knowing how a deal works, everyone will say Britain is the place to hold the fight. But it is the world heavyweight championship – there will be all sorts of offers from across the world, and there have been already.

“The venue is another obstacle to overcome.”

Fury’s UK-based promoter Frank Warren had previously told Sky Sports: “This is not a difficult fight to make.

“It’s not about me or [Hearn’s company] Matchroom. It’s about getting this fight made.”
