Boxer and reality star Tommy Fury is reportedly set to fight World’s Strongest Man winner Eddie Hall.
Fury, 26, the brother of former heavyweight champion Tyson, first rose to prominence on the UK edition of Love Island seven years ago.
He then returned to the ring for bouts against YouTubers Jake Paul and KSI in 2023 – beating Paul by split decision and KSI by unanimous decision.
Since then, his only fight came in May last year when he defeated Bosnian Kenan Hanjalic in a low-profile affair.
But now, according to talkSPORT, he is set to return to the limelight on June 13 in Manchester, England when he takes on Briton strongman Hall at the AO Arena.
Hall, 38, won the World’s Strongest Man competition back in 2017.
He then fought and lost to Hafthor Bjornsson in 2022 – the Icelandic giant famous for playing Thor in Game of Thrones.
Hall’s fighting weight has been well over the 300-pound mark, while Fury has always been under the 200-pound cruiserweight limit.
It has not yet been confirmed what the weight limit will be for the contest between the two.
Hall teased an announcement last weekend, saying: “I’ve got a fight coming up on June 13 in Manchester that’ll be announced very, very soon.
“I want to get in there, of course [as soon as possible]. I’ve got a big fight coming up. It will be on Misfits…”
He also revealed a potential clash with MMA star Dillon Danis could be on the cards in the future.
He added: “I’ve been told the Dillon Danis fight will happen before the end of the year, so let’s make it happen.”
