Frank Warren reacts after Tyson Fury teases ‘big announcement’ with Dana White

Frank Warren has shared his reaction after Tyson Fury revealed that a ‘big announcement’ with Dana White was imminent.

Warren has spent several years as the promoter of Fury, helping to guide him back towards the world heavyweight title during an epic trilogy with Deontay Wilder, before title defences in UK stadium fights against Dillian Whyte and Derek Chisora.

Fury’s last few fights have been facilitated by Turki Alalshikh, and that will be the case again later this year when ‘The Gypsy King’ is set for a long-awaited showdown against countryman Anthony Joshua.

A new twist emerged this week when Fury appeared at the UFC White House event and teased potentially signing with Zuffa Boxing chief White, despite Eddie Hearn claiming that the contract for the Joshua bout states that White can’t be the promoter for the fight.

It has also been recently reported that Las Vegas is the current frontrunner to host the fight, causing anger amongst UK fight fans.

Warren has now spoken to TalkSport about all of the recent drama, insisting that is still involved with Fury and that nothing has been decided yet in terms of where the fight will take place.

“Tyson hasn’t signed for anybody. At the moment in time, I have my arrangement with him which I’m very comfortable with, and we have a business relationship which has worked very well and continues to work well. I have no problems whatsoever.

“The last few fights have been promoter by [Turki], that’s where the money has come from to promote the shows, nothing has changed. Life goes on as normal.

“We don’t know yet [where it will be]. Nothing has been decided yet. It would be lovely to be in Britain, it’s where it should be, it’s two Brits.”

Before their match-up later in the year, Joshua must first overcome Kristian Prenga in July, while Fury is also set to compete in August, with full details on that bout expected soon.
