Fury and Joshua Agree to Fight This Fall in Dublin

Promoter Kalle Sauerland has announced that the highly anticipated boxing match between Tyson Fury and Anthony Joshua is confirmed for this fall in Dublin, Ireland, much to the excitement of boxing fans worldwide.

Promoter Kalle Sauerland recently made a significant announcement confirming that the match between renowned boxers Tyson Fury and Anthony Joshua has been agreed upon for this fall. According to Sauerland, the fight will take place in the capital of Ireland — Dublin, which has delighted boxing fans eagerly awaiting this event.

Sauerland shared this information during an interview with iFL TV, stating, "The Fury-Joshua fight is agreed upon, apparently, for the fall in Dublin. This is fantastic. This is what I’ve heard. The fight is agreed upon in Dublin. I think September, October." These words from the promoter have sparked great interest among boxing enthusiasts, as both fighters boast immense popularity and a large fan base.

It is worth noting that Tyson Fury, who last stepped into the ring in December 2024, suffered a defeat against Ukrainian boxer Oleksandr Usyk. Following this, in January 2025, Fury announced his retirement from boxing, but by early 2026, he made a comeback, demonstrating his unyielding desire to compete at a high level once again.

On the other hand, Anthony Joshua fought his last match in December 2025, where he achieved a knockout victory over American boxer Jake Paul in the sixth round. However, after this bout, Joshua took a break from his career due to a tragic incident — a car accident in Nigeria that claimed the lives of two of his trainers. This incident was a significant blow for Joshua, but he continues to prepare for his return to the ring.

Recently, Tyson Fury confirmed his readiness to fight Joshua after his scheduled match against Russian boxer Mahmudov, which will take place on April 11 in London. This information further fuels interest in the upcoming bout between Fury and Joshua, as both boxers have their own fan bases and ambitions.

Additionally, former Usyk opponent Tony Bellew has already expressed his predictions regarding the winner of the upcoming fight between Joshua and Fury, adding intrigue to this matchup. Fans are eagerly awaiting his comments and thoughts on which boxer stands a better chance of victory.

It is also noteworthy that Joshua recently visited Ukraine, where he met with Ukrainian heavyweight champion Oleksandr Usyk. During his visit to Kyiv, Joshua toured key landmarks in the city, including the memorial for fallen defenders of Ukraine, where he paid tribute to the soldiers who lost their lives during Russia's full-scale invasion. This act underscores his support and solidarity with the Ukrainian people during these challenging times.

Thus, the fight between Tyson Fury and Anthony Joshua, scheduled for this fall in Dublin, promises to be one of the most significant events in the boxing world. Fans are eagerly anticipating this encounter, as both boxers possess immense potential and are ready to showcase their best skills in the ring.
