Tyson Fury and Agit Kabayel are in the process of finalizing an agreement for a heavyweight bout on Dec. 5, sources told Mike Coppinger of The Athletic.

The fight is expected to take place at Royal Albert Hall in London and broadcast on ESPN and BT Sport Box Office.

Fury was slated to face off against Deontay Wilder in a trilogy bout scheduled for July 18. That fight was postponed to October after a Wilder injury, and the coronavirus pandemic later spoiled those plans.
