Legendary promoter Bob Arum believes talks over a huge Battle of Britain showdown between Tyson Fury and Anthony Joshua will be easy to complete.

The two heavyweights, who between them hold all of the world title belts, want to face each other in a mega-money bout to crown a unified champion.

Fury is currently preparing to take on Deontay Wilder in a trilogy fight, while Joshua will defend his titles against Kubrat Pulev later this year.

Arum is confident that the pair will finally get it on inside the ring in 2021, providing Joshua does not suffer a shock defeat to Pulev in their rearranged fight.

And the Top Rank chief, who looks after Fury's interests in the US, expects negotiations with AJ's promoter, Eddie Hearn, to be straightforward. 

'If Joshua beats Pulev, which I don't want because Pulev is my fighter, but if that happens then obviously we would go ahead and do a Fury vs Joshua fight sometime next year,' Arum told Sky Sports.

'I don't think the negotiations would be fraught with difficulty. I think we could negotiate a deal if we met in person within the course of one day. We could work it out.

'We are not known for playing games at Top Rank. We understand how to handle Eddie (Hearn).

'I worked for many years with his father Barry, who I consider a good friend. 

'Frank (Warren) will come to the table and we'll get it done and my prediction would be that we'd get it done in a day.' 

Warren backed up Arum's view earlier this week, admitting a huge fight between his client, Fury, and Joshua should be simple to agree.

'It's not a difficult fight to make. Whatever is on the table is 50-50,' he told Sky Sports.

'Fury is the No 1 heavyweight but we don't say 60-40. 50-50 down the middle.

'Once we get the offer that we're supposed to be getting, we'll be in a position to sit around the table and knock it into shape. 

'It's not about me or [Joshua's promoter Hearn's company] Matchroom. It's about getting this fight made.'
