The highly-anticipated clash, which will be broadcast to a global audience on Netflix, could kick off in the early hours of Saturday morning in the UK, with organizers contemplating a later start to accommodate viewers in the United States. The two fighters will meet in London on Wednesday, 30 September, for a press conference heralding the start of an eagerly-awaited chapter in British boxing history. Joshua, 36, shared on Instagram that he aims to \"inspire a generation.\" Fury, 38, has yet to make any comments regarding the announcement.
