Tommy Fury to make boxing return against former World's Strongest Man Eddie Hall in June

Tommy Fury will make his boxing return against former World's Strongest Man Eddie Hall in Manchester on June 13.

Fury - the half-brother of Tyson Fury - has not fought since a unanimous-decision win over Kenan Hanjalic in May 2025 took his unblemished career record to 11-0.

The 26-year-old's bout with fellow Englishman Hall will have a vast weight disparity with Hall - crowned World's Strongest Man in 2017 - weighing up to 433 pounds in the past.

Fury weighed in at 208 pounds ahead of his fight versus Hanjalic.

Hall, 38, has only boxed once before, losing to fellow strongman Hafthor Julius Bjornsson of Iceland in 2022.

He defeated another strongman, Mariusz Pudzianowski of Poland, in an MMA fight in 2025.

Tyson Fury will return to the ring for the first time since a second successive defeat to Oleksandr Usyk in December 2024 when he meets Arslanbek Makhmudov at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium on April 11.

"You can't beat it, can you?

"It's been four years since I was last at Tottenham, when I was last in the UK doing a fight.

"I'm looking forward to getting back there and soaking up some of that atmosphere. There's nothing like a UK football stadium to get you going.

"All I can say is Makmudov's in some serious bother. He's in trouble. Let's throw down. May the best man win."
