IFL TV<\/a> that he would compete in a warm up bout in July or August. Fury had previously claimed that he would compete on August 1 in Dublin, Ireland, where his long term promoter Frank Warren already has a show. However, Fury recently teased a team up with Zuffa Boxing head Dana White and declared recently that Saudi boxing financier Turki Alalshkih would be his promoter until the end of his career, casting doubt over that date. <\/p>\nThere was speculation that Fury could take on former unified heavyweight champion Andy Ruiz Jnr \u2013 who has recently signed with Zuffa Boxing \u2013 but Fury has put an end to those rumors.<\/p>\n
\u201cAndy Ruiz has been contacted as a warm up fight, because that is all he is the little fat bum dosser,\u201d said Fury. \u201cAlthough he knocked out [Anthony Joshua] he wouldn\u2019t come close to me. I\u2019d punch his head right in. But they asked for ridiculous numbers, numbers that they can\u2019t generate. This isn\u2019t a stadium show, this is a keep busy fight. Andy Ruiz priced himself out, as did a few other people. We\u2019re still searching for an opponent.”<\/p>\n
There is also talk of Fury facing the 24-0 (22 KOs) Nelson Hysa who is signed with Warren\u2019s Queensberry Promotions.<\/p>\n
\u201cNelson Hysa is one of the guys that has been spoken about,\u201d said Fury. \u201cHe’s a highly ranked, undefeated knockout artist. He is one of the guys that has been spoken of as well.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Tyson Fury has shed some light on his next opponent ahead of his long awaited clash with Anthony…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":742019,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[447],"tags":[703,711,710,49,48,10359,82,5513],"class_list":["post-742018","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-boxing","tag-boxing","tag-boxing-news","tag-boxingscene","tag-ca","tag-canada","tag-dana-white","tag-sports","tag-tyson-fury"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/742018","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=742018"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/742018\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/742019"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=742018"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=742018"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=742018"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
