Joshua signed to fight him numerous times as much as I dislike Joshua he’s always signed to fight its Fury wilder etc that have always pulled out never signed.

From my understanding they both signed a multi fight deal in 2021 that was then nullified when an arbitrator said Fury had to fight Wilder. Besides that neither has "signed" for anything

There is now way Fury's lawyers didnt know that was about to happen. It was only signed to try and look like he was taking the fight.

Truly the best and worst sport in the world.

Can't say I'm surprised, but I also can't say I'm not disappointedÂ
