Carl Froch Says He Accepts John Fury’s Challenge for Tyson Fury’s April 11 Undercard

No bout is officially agreed as questions over promoters and format persist, with many expecting any meeting to be an exhibition.

Overview

  • John Fury posted a social video offering to fight Carl Froch in eight weeks on the Tottenham undercard and urged Netflix to contact him.
  • Carl Froch replied on YouTube that he accepts the challenge, vowing to face Fury Sr on the proposed April 11 bill.
  • Froch has indicated any return should be arranged through Misfits Boxing and figures such as Mams Taylor rather than informally.
  • Tyson Fury is slated to face Arslanbek Makhmudov on April 11 at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium, the event targeted for the proposed bout.
  • Reporters note Fury Sr is 60 and a sanctioned competitive fight appears unlikely, making an exhibition the more probable route with no agreement yet in place.
