JAKARTA - Tyson Fury has determined his potential opponent for the remainder of 2021. In addition to facing Deontay Wilder, Gypsy King opened the door for an exhibition fight with Mike Tyson.

Iron Mike, after returning to the ring for an exhibition fight against Roy Jones Jr in November 2020, is thought to be interested in his next exhibition bout.

"You only have to see Holyfield against Vitor Belfort this weekend, Holyfield is 60 and the others are 45, why do we have to kill the dreams of these people getting fit?" Fury explained before Holyfield vs Belfort on Saturday.

"They are fighting and working towards a goal, I would love to see Mike come back and fight, you know.

"I'd love to play Mike Tyson in an exhibition, if Dillian Whyte is off then I'd love to see Mike in an exhibition, Tyson vs Tyson, then vs now, there's a lot of fun in that."

Meanwhile, the third fight between Fury and Wilder was previously scheduled to take place on July 24, 2021. However, it had to be postponed due to Fury contracting COVID-19.

Now, the long-awaited fight will take place on October 9 at the T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas. Fury will defend his WBC heavyweight belt in his third duel against Wilder.
