Details of Anthony Joshua, Tyson Fury deal for two fights revealed

Anthony Joshua Tyson Fury 1
Anthony Joshua and Tyson Fury have agreed a 50-50 split for their first fight in 2021, the Daily Mail reports.
There will, however, be a 10 percent jump going into the rematch.
That means the sharing formula will change to 60-40 for the second fight.
Joshua's promoter, Eddie Hearn and Fury's co-promoter Frank Warren have confirmed that progress has been made in talks over the double-header, especially the money part.
However, there is still a lot of work to be done in making the fight.
First, Fury and Joshua must first come through bouts with Deontay Wilder and Kubrat Pulev respectively.
There is also the political tangle of Dillian Whyte's status as mandatory challenger for Fury's WBC title and unresolved discussions about the venue and date.

"I didn't say much to the players after the game. I was angry and disappointed just like them, so at these moments it's best to stay silent."

LaLiga: Wenger reveals player Barcelona needs to buy

Image
Former Arsenal manager, Arsene Wenger, has said he is "convinced" Barcelona will sign another forward. Antoine Griezmann was signed last summer for €120million, but has struggled to hit top form in his first season, scoring 14 goals in 37 games. Barca are heavily linked with a move for Inter Milan star Lautaro Martinez, who is considered a long-term replacement for Luis Suarez. Wenger believes Griezmann will improve, but feels the LaLiga giants will add another forward this close season. "Barcelona has always bought the greatest players. Personally, I'm not sure that Suarez needs to be replaced," he told beIN SPORTS. "They can add another striker because it's true that Suarez and [Lionel] Messi are the main contributors and they might need somebody else who can score goals. "I still think Griezmann at some stage will start to score goals, he doesn't look completely adapted, maybe now after confinement he will be refreshed because...
