Tyson Fury and Anthony Joshua's long-awaited heavyweight grudge match could be set for Las Vegas, according to reports.
The British duo are set for a much-hyped super-bout later in 2026, but major questions continue to linger over their contest.
Yet with the pair set to meet in the final quarter of the year, hopes to hold the bout at Wembley Stadium have faced issues.
Speculation has run rampant over potential alternates, with Los Angeles previously floated as a potential fight destination.
Joshua's promoter Eddie Hearn previously suggested that a contracted clause ensured the fight must be held on British soil.
But now, The Athletic have reported that Vegas has emerged as the frontrunner, with the MGM Grand Arena one option.
Any bout outside of the United Kingdom would be a bitter blow to fight fans, who would have hoped for a domestic contest.
Both Joshua and Fury are set to take tune-up bouts between July and August, with the former facing Kristian Prenga in Jeddah.
Another week, another rumour - and still no end in sight for the Fury-Joshua hype train, even as it threatens to come off the rails.
The former stoked fires again over the weekend when he popped up at the White House, and now he may be back in the USA.
But if Matchroom boss Hearn is right, then there will have to be another round of discussions to even get this bout overseas.
For fight fans, it will feel like a sucker-punch that the biggest heavyweight contest of their lives is not held on home territory.
Money talks, in the end. Fury is no stranger to Sin City - and Joshua, if taken there, will do more than merely gamble his legacy.
