Anthony Joshua to face Christian Prengi in July; Tyson Fury bout confirmed

Anthony Joshua (29-4, 26 KO) will return to the ring on July 25 in Saudi Arabia against 35-year-old Albanian fighter Christian Prengi (20-1, 20 KO). The bout serves as Joshua's next step in his comeback campaign. More significantly, it has been officially confirmed that Joshua versus Tyson Fury has been agreed upon and will take place in the fourth quarter of 2026, between October and December. The Fury-Joshua fight has been years in the making and represents one of the biggest potential heavyweight matchups in boxing. Joshua's July fight appears to be a tune-up before the mega-fight with Fury later in the year.
