Tyson Fury training camp: Warren says Fury ‘wishes the fight was tomorrow’

Tyson Fury training camp news is good for the Gypsy King’s fans. His promoter Frank Warren says Fury is in great shape and cannot wait to face Anthony Joshua. Speaking exclusively to DAZN News, Warren revealed that Fury told him he wishes the fight was tomorrow. The two British heavyweights meet at the Principality Stadium in Cardiff on 11 December, just over four weeks from now.

It is a big message to send so close to fight night. After more than a decade of talk, failed deals and public rows, the rivalry is finally heading to the ring. Fury’s camp clearly want everyone to know he is ready for it.

Tyson Fury training camp: what Frank Warren said

Warren has stayed in close contact with Fury while he prepares. He told DAZN News that the reports from the camp have been glowing. “The last time we spoke, and also speaking with people who are there, he’s in great form,” Warren said. “He’s really looking good.”

The Hall of Fame promoter then shared the line that will excite Fury’s supporters. “When I did last speak to him, he said to me, ‘I wish the fight was tomorrow.’ He’s so much on the money. He’s really up for it.”

According to DAZN News, Fury is based in Florida for this camp. The report says heavyweights such as Jarrell Miller and Joe Joyce have helped him prepare. Joyce has already made his own view clear, as he backed Fury and questioned Joshua’s chin earlier this month.

Warren backs Fury in the “battle of the chins”

Warren is Fury’s promoter, so his pick will surprise nobody. Even so, he explained his reasons in detail. He believes the age of both men will shape the fight, and that Fury’s ability to take a shot could be the difference.

“It’s going to be a tremendous atmosphere there and the anticipation of it after all these years is going to be something special, and I think it’s going to be a good fight,” Warren said. “They’ve both changed as fighters. They’re both older and in the autumn of their careers. If it’s the battle of the chins, I’ve got to back Tyson. They’re both big punchers, but I just feel that it’s Tyson’s fight.”

Questions about Joshua’s punch resistance have followed him for some time. DAZN News noted that he was floored twice in the first round against Kristian Prenga in July, before he rallied in the next round. That night is sure to be studied closely in the Fury camp.

How Fury and Joshua arrive in Cardiff

Fury goes into the fight with two wins in 2026. He beat Arslanbek Makhmudov in April and Mariusz Wach in July. Those wins gave him much-needed rounds after a quiet 2025, which followed his two defeats to Oleksandr Usyk in 2024.

Joshua has made a big change of his own. He is working again with Ben Davison, the coach who guided Fury through his comeback and his first fight with Deontay Wilder. Fury has played that down, saying he has no hard feelings. You can read more on why Fury is happy Ben Davison is in Joshua’s corner.

Warren’s latest words also follow his firm response to injury talk last week. On 5 November he denied claims that Fury was hurt and insisted the fight goes ahead on 11 December. Today’s update is the clearest sign yet that the camp is on track.
