There is no rematch clause in the contract for Tyson Fury vs Anthony Joshua, both camps have confirmed.

"No rematch clause. It's one fight, one-off. Listen, if it's a blockbuster, I'm sure they'll do it again," Joshua's promoter Eddie Hearn told Sky Sports News. "Go in there, end this guy and on we go."

Fury's manager Spencer Brown said the same. "Contractually, there's one fight. There's one big fight. It was designed for that," he said. "I'm not saying there can't be a second fight. But, if Tyson wins, we'd like to resume things with Usyk as well."

Brown said the fight could decide more than the winner. "They're all close to the end of their careers. Whoever loses here, where do they go? That's a tough one," he said. "Whoever wins, the journey continues. Whoever loses, they've got to think about what they're going to do and when they're going to do it."

Fury told Sky Sports he has no intention of retiring after Joshua and wants Oleksandr Usyk in New York. Hearn expects a dramatic night: "Both guys could be down in this fight but they're so desperate to win you can guarantee they'll be climbing and crawling off that canvas to win the fight."
