There is no rematch clause in the Fury vs Joshua contract, so the December 11 fight in Cardiff is a one-off. Fury’s manager Spencer Brown confirmed the deal covers a single fight, which leaves the loser facing a major decision about his future.
“Contractually, there’s one fight,” Brown told Sky Sports News in early October. Joshua’s promoter Eddie Hearn left the door open, saying a second fight could follow if the first one lives up to the hype.

Fury Says Joshua Is Chasing a “Final Payday”
Speaking from his training camp in Miami in late October, Fury said Joshua is getting a “final payday” in Cardiff. He insisted his own career will carry on after December 11, with a trilogy fight against Oleksandr Usyk still his main goal.
Joshua has fired back in his own way. He has predicted a quick knockout win over Fury, a sign of the confidence he has carried since stopping Kristian Prenga in July.
Why No Rematch Clause Raises the Stakes
Most big fights include a rematch clause to protect the loser. Without one, defeat could end either man’s hopes of another world title run. Fury is 38 and Joshua is 37, so neither has much time to rebuild.
The winner, by contrast, takes the WBA “Super” heavyweight title and the strongest hand in the division. Murat Gassiev already wants a shot at that belt, and Fury has made clear he wants Usyk again.
Could a Fury vs Joshua Rematch Still Happen?
Yes, but only through a fresh negotiation. Given how long the first deal took, that would not be quick. A close or controversial result would make a second fight far more likely than a clear knockout.
