The heavyweight star has been heavily linked to White\u2019s expanding boxing operation, even as his long-discussed showdown with Anthony Joshua remains unresolved.<\/p>\n<p>Asked by Chris Algieri whether Fury\u2019s promotional situation could complicate the long-awaited Joshua fight, Garcia dismissed the idea.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cFans don\u2019t care. Fans don\u2019t care. As long as the fight happens, I don\u2019t care,\u201d Garcia said to Probox TV. \u201cAnthony Joshua obviously has been very, very loyal and has worked very well with Eddie and Matchroom, and that\u2019s perfect. I love that with fighters also. But Tyson Fury, if he says Turki Alalshikh is his promoter, that fight can still happen.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Garcia pointed out that the various parties involved in boxing\u2019s biggest events have worked together before, making the promotional wrangling less significant than some have suggested.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt\u2019s not like they\u2019ve never worked together. They continue working together. So it\u2019s a fight that has no business with the promoters. It\u2019s not like the promoters are going to prevent the fight or anything like that. The promoters can make it happen. Turki could make it happen.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The Mexican trainer\u2019s bigger concern was that Fury and Joshua continue taking interim bouts instead of finally meeting in the ring.<\/p>\n<p>Garcia previously stated during the discussion that neither heavyweight needs another stay-busy contest and warned that the longer they wait, the greater the chance that injuries, defeats or age diminish the appeal of one of boxing\u2019s most anticipated matchups.<\/p>\n<p>For Robert, Dana White\u2019s possible involvement is secondary. If Fury-Joshua can still be delivered, boxing fans are unlikely to care whose logo appears on the promotional material.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" alt=\"Youtube video\" width=\"480\" height=\"360\" data-pin-nopin=\"true\" nopin=\"nopin\" class=\"perfmatters-lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/1781664980_397_hqdefault.jpg\"\/><\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Tom Galm is a boxing journalist who has covered the global fight landscape since 2014, specializing in heavyweight analysis, industry trends, and fighter psychology.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Fury addressed the growing talk about his future at the UFC\u2019s White House event\u00a0over the weekend, where he&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":642772,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[41],"tags":[2560,101,56,54,55],"class_list":["post-642771","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-boxing","tag-boxing","tag-sports","tag-uk","tag-united-kingdom","tag-unitedkingdom"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/642771","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=642771"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/642771\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/642772"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=642771"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=642771"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=642771"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
