Tyson Fury faces Oleksandr Usyk in Riyadh on Saturday night
Frank Warren doubts the eagerly awaited all-British showdown between Tyson Fury and Anthony Joshua can be staged before February next year.
READ MORE:Tyson Fury vs Oleksandr Usyk press conference and weigh-in times confirmed ahead of huge fightSince losing his WBA, IBF and WBO titles to Usyk in September 2021, Joshua has steadily rebuilt by compiling wins against Jermaine Franklin Jr, Robert Helenius, Otto Wallin and Francis Ngannou in less than a year.
"There's a lot of money involved and I can't see whoever loses the fight on Saturday will walk away from the second one. It would take a lot of money to make Usyk step aside to make the Joshua fight happen. A lot of money because it's a huge purse. If it doesn't happen then the winner will fight Joshua in February next year."
"Tyson will be gunning for Usyk," Warren said. "He will take the centre of the ring and will impose himself. And that's what he has to do. Daniel Dubois did that when he caught Usyk to the body and then there was all that nonsense with the referee. Daniel then lost his way in the fight.
