Though Top Rank president Todd DuBoef told Sky Sports: "I have not personally had any conversations about that. It is not on my radar.
"I am working with Wilder's representatives on coming up with new potential dates in late-summer or early-fall for the Fury fight. We are speaking about potential venues too.
"That fight breaking up as a result of [Joshua vs Fury] fight? I have not been privy to any conversations about that. I have not heard that they are willing to step aside. Nobody has communicated that.
"We are contractually obligated to Wilder at this point. Pulev and Joshua are contracted.
"There is too much uncertainty across the board, with everything, to speculate on [Joshua vs Fury] happening.
“In a perfect world without this virus then I could possibly see a path [to Joshua vs Fury] but right now I don't see it.”
