On the other hand, Mayweather has the title of the best -earning combat athlete in history, he generated 890 million pounds of earnings during his career. His reported net value 296 million pounds significantly overshadow the Tyson.

However, he will have to be ready to fight when he faces Tyson, who said TMZ about the fight: “This fight is not something that neither the world, nor I thought that it would happen.

“However, the boxing entered a novel era of unpredictable – and this fight is as unpredictable as possible. I still can’t believe that Floyd wants to do it. It will be harmful to his health, but he wants to do it, so he is signed and happens!”

Mayweather also issued a statement about the upcoming duel, warning Tyson: “I have been doing it for 30 years and there was no one warrior who can destroy my legacy. You already know that if I intend to do something, it will be substantial and it will be legendary. I am the best in business in boxing. The exhibition will give fans.”

Warren showed up Sun‘s Corner Talk show to discuss the blockbuster fight and believes it’s only six months away. He said: “Tyson signed the contract a few months ago. He’s registered and ready to go. We thought AJ had signed the contract but he didn’t. But now we’ve been told he has.

“I would be thinking about October because it’s starting to get too frosty to build a football stadium in the UK.

“I think it will be a huge fight because of the fighters involved, the money they generate and how long people have been waiting for it.”

Warren predicted that the fight would likely take place at Wembley Stadium and would break box office records for any fight. He added: “I think it will be a gigantic, gigantic fight and it may turn out to be the biggest one.

“Wembley’s biggest gate right now is Tyson and Dillian Whyte, who have broken every box office record for any type of event.

“There is a lot of demand for this one, so if it goes to Wembley I will be surprised if it doesn’t break the record.”

The promoter also confirmed that Fury vs. Joshua is a one-fight deal at the moment, but things could change depending on the outcome. He said: “I have no idea what AJ is getting. We thought he had signed a contract and that we would announce the fight after Tyson’s last fight in the ring in Tottenham. But it turns out he hasn’t actually signed a contract.

“But now his warm-up has been announced, I’m sure everything is signed. And I’m sure there won’t be any slip-up.

“Right now it’s a one-fight deal.”

“You can’t be disappointed with something that never happened,” Finkel said Heavenly sports.

“Eddie never contacted us and Joshua obviously had no intention of fighting Deontay Wilder.

“Same antique story, just modern date.”

Joshua and Wilder were scheduled to fight in March 2024, but the American was defeated by Joseph Parker in December 2023.

“AJ” will fight for the first time since he knocked out Jake Paul in the sixth round in December.

Ten days later, the two-time world heavyweight champion was involved in a tragic car accident that killed two of his close friends and left him with minor injuries.

Saudi Arabian boxing boss Turki Alalshikh announced that Joshua and Fury have signed a contract for their mega fight in a post on the website X on Monday, which read: “To my friends in the UK – it’s happening. This is signed.

Moments later, Joshua’s return was announced against unknown Albanian Prengi.

“It’s no secret that I’ve taken some time to consolidate and rebuild to be ready to get back into the ring, and today is the next step in that journey,” Joshua said.

“I am delighted to have agreed to a multi-fight contract starting on July 25 in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia.

“I’m looking forward to competing and continuing where I left off.

“Like I said. The landlord will collect rent. That’s for sure.”

Fury defeated Arslanbek Makhmudov on points in his return to the ring following his retirement earlier this year.
