The fight that boxing fans have been waiting for is nearing confirmation as Anthony Joshua and Wladimir Klitschko are set to collide for the world heavyweight title.

As a result of Tyson Fury vacating his WBO and WBA heavyweight belts due to being medically unfit to compete amid battling depression, it's set to pave the way for this super-fight.

The Telegraph report that the bout is to be held on December 10th and will be made official by promotion Matchroom Sport early next week. What's more, the fight is set to be a lucrative one. How lucrative? We're looking at a £30 million fight!

While Joshua was scheduled to fight on November 26th, the date will now be pushed back to accommodate the new clash. As for the destination; the IBF titlist was set to fight at the Manchester Arena, though Manchester could still land the fight.

The boxing calendar, hell the sporting year, is about to go out with a bang!
