ANTHONY JOSHUA has accepted terms for a proposed world heavyweight title fight with Tyson Fury, his management team announced today.

Fury, the WBC champion, made the offer to his British rival last week, saying he would accept a 60-40 purse split in order to seal the contest.

Joshua’s management team, 258, said today that they had accepted Fury’s offer on behalf of Joshua and his promoter, and are awaiting the champion’s response.
