JAKARTA - One month ago, Tyson Fury and Anthony Joshua signed a contract for a two-fight deal. However, an official announcement regarding the time and location of the fight has yet to be made.
Promoters Eddie Hearn and Frank Warren struggled to stage their first bout of the summer. But, they still sort out the finer details.
Meanwhile, Fury gave a deadline Tuesday - yesterday - regarding the certainty of the time and location of the fight. If not, he threatened to back off.
However, in the lead-up to training with Jorge Capetillo in Las Vegas recently, Fury barely gave the impression of being frustrated that there was no progress regarding his fight with Joshua.
The 32-year-old filmed himself sunbathing in a Vegas pool at a hotel, praising sponsor Wow Hydrate for arranging his trip to Sin City.
"I would like to take this opportunity to thank Wow Hydrate for looking after us and bringing Gypsy King to Vegas", he wrote in the video caption.
"Live like a true rockstar, big praise for Wow Hydrate, the best sponsor of the game, the best drink of the game, pushing to be the best".
The Gypsy King was also filmed performing on stage aka inside his hotel room over furniture - as he played air-guitar with ACDC's You Shook Me All Night Long blaring in the background.

However, that doesn't mean that Fury keeps having fun. In his latest post, he trains hard with Capetillo to prepare to fight Joshua.
The confirmation of his fight against Joshua was temporarily forgotten. But Fury wants that clarity as soon as possible.
Saudi Arabia is believed to be leading the race to host the fight. The kingdom in the Middle East previously held a Joshua rematch against Andy Ruiz Jr in 2019.
