Fury vs Joshua fight jeopardized as arbitrator rules Fury must face Wilder,

The highly anticipated third bout between Fury and Wilder was pushed back last year due to the COVID-19 pandemic.

Eddie Hearn: 'The razzmatazz is important,' says boxing promoter

The Briton stopped Wilder in the seventh round of their February 2020 match to remain undefeated through 31 fights.

After months of arbitration between the two, Judge Daniel Weinstein has ruled that the pair must have their rematch before Sept. 15, the Daily Star reported.

Attempts to reach Weinstein were not successful.

The ruling jeopardizes a long-awaited title showdown between Fury and Joshua, the world’s top two heavyweights, which was announced last week for Aug. 14 in Saudi Arabia.
