The greatly-anticipated collision of\u00a0Anthony Joshua<\/a>\u00a0and\u00a0Tyson Fury<\/a> could be on our screens next summer, with promoter Frank warren<\/a> hoping to stage the mega fight at Wembley Stadium.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Joshua publicly challenged his old rival after his sixth-round knockdown of YouTuber Jake Paul<\/a> in Miami last weekend.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Neither heavyweight has a place at the top table any more, having both been schooled by Ukraine’s brilliant\u00a0Oleksandr Usyk<\/a>.\u00a0However, there is a little doubt such a battle of Britain would be an all-time box office smash hit.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Joshua is expected to fight in Riyadh, Saudi, in February next year but that comes too early for the Gypsy King, who will be away on holiday with his family.\u00a0<\/p>\n

But his promoter Warren told the Sun: ‘For him now to go on holiday and to come back and be ready to fight in February is going to be an impossibility.\u00a0<\/p>\n

‘And I\u2019m told AJ\u2019s definitely fighting in February, so it\u2019s tight and if you\u2019re going to put it on either Wembley or Riyadh, that\u2019s where it would go.<\/p>\n

\"Anthony <\/p>\n

Anthony Joshua is expected to return to the ring again in February with a fight in Riyadh<\/p>\n

\"That <\/p>\n

That will however come too soon for Tyson Fury, who will still be on holiday with his family<\/p>\n

‘And I believe Wembley\u2019s the home for it. And if it\u2019s Wembley you\u2019ve got to wait till summer anyway. So Tyson is not going to sit around waiting seven months before he steps back in the ring having been out for nearly a year anyway.\u00a0But he won\u2019t be fighting a YouTuber!’<\/p>\n

Joshua has been mocked within the sport for lowering his sights when taking on Paul, with many refusing to take the clash seriously.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Joshua, 36, has now been linked with a crossover clash against the kickboxer Rico Verhoeven, also 36, for his Saudi Arabia return.<\/p>\n

The Watford man’s four defeats down the years, twice on points against Usyk sandwiched between knockdowns by Andy Ruiz and Daniel Dubois, would provide a more realistic guide as to his chances of matching Fury.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The 37-year-old Fury could fight again by April in what would be used as a tune-up before facing AJ. He retired in January following consecutive losses to Usyk, but few believed they had seen him in the ring for the last time.<\/p>\n

\"Joshua <\/p>\n

Joshua has been mocked within the sport for lowering his sights when taking on Jake Paul, with many refusing to take the clash seriously<\/p>\n

Warren said: ‘That would give him time to prepare and get ready providing all the financials are OK.<\/p>\n

‘I spoke to him a couple of weeks ago, because he\u2019s been travelling and it\u2019s simplistic with Tyson, “You know, what my requirements are, if they get met, I\u2019ll be there on the night”.\u00a0<\/p>\n

‘He\u2019s said he wants to. I know he\u2019s sort of been he training, not training to fight, but he\u2019s been ticking over and keeping himself fairly well.’<\/p>\n
