Warren, promoter of the also British heavyweight Tyson Fury, has no doubt about the result of the fight.\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\"><p>It&#8217;s a great moment for him [Paul]. He&#8217;s a big loser, everyone will think it&#8217;ll be a formality. He has a car accident written all over him.<\/p><cite>Frank Warren<\/cite><\/blockquote>\n\nWarren believes that, despite the controversy, the fight will attract a large audience.\n\nPeople will see it. It&#8217;s a great fight, a fight that will have big viewing figures.\n\nWarren also suggested that Joshua is opting for a &#8220;safe option&#8221;.\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\"><p>He&#8217;s taking the money and it&#8217;s a safe option. I&#8217;d prefer he was fighting Moses [Itauma].<\/p><cite>Frank Warren<\/cite><\/blockquote>\n\nDespite this fight, Joshua is still expected to face Fury in an anticipated showdown next year.\n\nJoshua&#8217;s promoter, Eddie Hearn, revealed that they are working on a deal with Turki Alalshikh, chairman of Saudi Arabia&#8217;s General Entertainment Authority, to finalize the fight between both boxers.\n\nAlalshikh indicated that Joshua will fight in February before aiming for Fury in 2026.\n\nHearn has stated that the agreement between both parties is almost closed, but Warren claims that Fury will have the last word.\n\nTyson will make his decision about what he wants to do.\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\"><p>It all depends on whether Tyson wants to do it and how much [money]? There are ongoing conversations. The one who has to decide is Tyson, whether he wants to do it or not.
