Tyson Fury versus Anthony Joshua has remained one of boxing’s most talked-about matchups for years. The two heavyweights have shared the same era but have yet to meet in the ring. Talks, delays, and shifting plans have kept the fight from happening.

Now, new comments from Kalle Sauerland have brought the matchup back into focus. Speaking in a recent interview, Sauerland suggested the fight could take place later this year. His remarks have created fresh attention, though no official confirmation has come from either fighter or their teams. The situation remains fluid, with fans still waiting for definitive details on whether the bout will finally take place.

Kalle Sauerland Shares the Latest on Tyson Fury vs Anthony Joshua

In a recent interview with iFLTV, Sauerland spoke about the potential fight and addressed ongoing discussions about the heavyweight division. He pointed to reports that the fight could take place in Dublin later this year.

“You also look at other fights coming up. Tyson Fury and Anthony Joshua are expected to fight later this year, possibly in Dublin around September or October,” Sauerland said.

He made it clear that this information is not confirmed.

“That’s what I’ve heard, but I’m not sure if it’s official yet… have I put my foot in it? Anyways, that’s what I’ve heard. Word on the street.”

His comments added to ongoing speculation about when and where the fight could happen.

Questions Remain Over Location and Timing

The idea of hosting the fight in Dublin has raised questions. Large UK venues such as Wembley Stadium have often been linked to the matchup due to their size and history of hosting major fights.

At the same time, recent boxing events have shown that major fights can take place outside traditional locations. Previous reports had also linked the bout to other international venues.

Despite the latest claims, no official announcement has confirmed a date or location. Both fighters are still active, and plans for their next bouts have not been fully detailed.

The Fight Still Awaits Official Confirmation

Fury and Joshua remain two of the biggest names in the heavyweight division. A fight between them would draw global attention and mark a key moment in the sport.

Sauerland also spoke about the wider picture in the division, noting that time is a factor for top fighters.

“What’s clear is that these icons can’t stay at the top forever,” he said.

As of now, the proposed fight in Dublin remains unconfirmed. No contracts or official statements have been released by the fighters or their teams.

For now, the matchup continues to be one of boxing’s most anticipated fights, with fans waiting for formal confirmation before it becomes official.
