After the Queen's funeral on Monday, September 19, local time for the discussion will resume.
"We're delaying everything for now," Warren told talkSPORT quoted by Marca. "(Recustoming a duel plan) is definitely inappropriate. That's how we feel."
"We have postponed it and will continue it next week or more. From our point of view, we feel it is inappropriate and more respectful of what has happened."
Fury and Joshua can meet in England at the end of this year. Joshua will fight for the title after losing three to the previous five games and twice in a row to Oleksandr Usyk.
The big money duel in the history of British boxing will be divided by 40 percent between Joshua and his opponent. One of the locations being discussed is Cardiff, Wales Principalality Stadium.
