Broadcaster DAZN is reportedly closing in on a deal that would see promoters Frank Warren and Eddie Hearn come under the same banner.
The streaming service is confident of sealing a long-term deal with Queensberry Promotions, according to The Times.
The report has suggested that Warren’s company could have the deal in place in weeks.
It is said that it would be a “seismic shift” in the world of boxing with Hearn’s Matchroom Boxing having a deal with DAZN since 2021.
Joshua is the star of Matchroom Boxing and has signed a career-long deal with DAZN as well as holding equity in the broadcaster.
Fury is promoted by Warren, meaning the deal would see the two boxers are aligned to the same service.
Queensberry had been contracted to TNT Sports but that deal will expire in 2025.
The new deal with DAZN would come into place once that has expired.
It would also make the streaming service the “home of UK boxing”.
DAZN has previously sub-licensed TV deals with TNT and Sky Sports in order to make the most from pay-per-view fights.
This was the case for bouts involving both Fury and Joshua in Saudi Arabia.
