Frank Warren has called for patience when it comes to the ongoing Anthony Joshua vs. Tyson Fury saga. The fight will happen, says the promoter.
Both have signed contracts but both still have unfinished business with other opponents before the all-British super-fight can be formally announced - presuming Fury does indeed secure a warm-up bout.

Joshua is set to fight Kristian Prenga on July 25 in Saudi Arabia whereas Fury has teased a bout in August.
Presuming both win then all parties - expected broadcaster Netflix, the various promotional groups, and the fighters themselves - will agree on a date and location. There's an awful lot of people involved but there's also an awful lot of money on the table. So, in short, nobody panic. There is too much for everyone involved to lose for this contest not to happen.
"Sela, who the contract's with with Tyson, and I assume the same with ‘AJ’, they obviously have their preference where it will go,” Warren told Sky Sports. “Netflix, who will broadcast it, they're going to have their preference. At the end of the day everybody has got to agree and be satisfied.
"It's on, the fight is on - unless either of them get beaten in these two fights they're going to have, the fight is on, no problems.
"The one thing is they've both signed up for a fight. AJ's got his fight in July, and Tyson I believe will have a fight, I don't know where it will be yet or the date for it and once they're out the way their fight will go late autumn.
"I don't see any problems in getting this fight on. Everybody will get satisfied," Warren added. "Let them get their respective fights out the way - once that's done, then there will be an announcement."
