"He is adamant about that" says Ben Shalom over Tyson Fury's quick return

Promoter Ben Shalom had a ringside talk with WBC Heavyweight Champion Tyson Fury “Tyson Fury does want to fight in February or March, whether it’s against Dillian Whyte or not,” revealed Tyson is eager to resume his career.

Further, it has been revealed that Tyson desires to continue his legacy of being WBC Heavyweight Champion as he told promoter Ben Shalom “he will definitely be fighting,” in early 2022 though has no selected opponent yet.

The WBC Heavyweight Champion Tyson Fury came to cheer up his cousin Hosea Burton who suffered a battling defeat to Dan Azeez in their British title fight. BOXXER Promoter Ben Shalom joined Tyson at ringside on Saturday Night’s Fight.  

After two demolitions of Deontay Wilder, Fury has risen to the top of the heavyweight rankings, but the WBC has yet to choose Dillian Whyte as his mandatory challenger, leaving him without a confirmed opponent for a quick return.

“He told me that he will definitely be fighting in February or March but doesn’t know who it will be against,” Shalom stated to Sky Sports.

“He is adamant about that,” Shalom added.

Anthony Joshua has lost the IBF, WBA, and WBO title to Oleksandr Usyk after a unanimous decision loss in September. Joshua has triggered a rematch clause in an attempt to reclaim his lost titles.

Fury's options have been narrowed as a result of this, who spoke to Sky Sports on Saturday: “I’m not really interested, because to be honest, it doesn’t really make much sense who I want to fight at this moment.”

“Hopefully now he’s got no chance. What’s he going to do? Throw the belt in the bin and run away from more money than he got to fight Wilder?” Dillian added to chase down Fury.

Arum suggested Britain’s undefeated contender Joe Joyce as an opponent.

The WBC Heavyweight Champion Tyson Fury shared his intimacy to resume his career and he is “adamant” to fight in upcoming days though to whom it’ll be against, that’s still a mystery. Many fighters showed up after the sole statement of Tyson Fury, Anthony Joshua, Dillian Whyte, Joe Joyce might be the considered choices.
