Anthony Joshua vs Tyson Fury fight next year is still on, despite the coronavirus pandemic because there is a "gravitation to bring the titles together", says Top Rank president Todd duBoef.
Joshua and Fury have agreed financial terms on two fights in 2021 but must first come through defences which have not yet been finalised.
DuBoef of Top Rank, Fury's US-based promoters, told
Sky Sports: "There is a gravitation to bring the titles together, and that would be Joshua and Fury. Obviously we would have loved to do that before the end of this year, but for the pandemic.
"I don't think anybody is wavering from that objective. Both guys have great personalities, they can fight, and it is overdue. Let's get it done.
"It would be the biggest fight in the history of the UK, for sure. In order to be a really big fight you have to have a large gate; for example Floyd Mayweather vs Manny Pacquiao did $70m at the gate. I don't know what the world will look like in spring 2021.
"What will the economics look like? We need to see how things change. But it's as big a fight as anything I've seen in the sport."
