Mike Tyson’s Son Names Tyson Fury’s Perfect Return Fight That Would “Shut Down the UK”

Former WBC heavyweight champion Tyson Fury remains cold to the idea of returning to boxing. Yet that hasn’t stopped fans—and some high-profile names—from urging ‘The Gypsy King’ to lace up the gloves one last time. Among them is Amir J. Tyson, son of legendary heavyweight Mike Tyson, who believes Fury’s comeback should be for nothing less than the biggest fight the UK has to offer.

But who would that opponent be? If you haven’t already guessed, it’s former unified heavyweight champion Anthony Joshua. The long-rumored showdown between Fury and Joshua has been discussed for years, but the fight has never come to fruition. Interestingly, ahead of Fury’s second bout with Oleksandr Usyk, he appeared more receptive to facing ‘AJ’.

However, after suffering back-to-back losses, Fury has seemingly slipped back into retirement. Though he’s walked away from the sport before—only to return when the right offer came along—this time, a comeback has yet to materialize. That’s why a recent training clip posted by The Ring sparked excitement among fans, reigniting hopes of Fury stepping back into the ring.

Among the first to react was Amir Tyson, who shared the clip with a bold prediction. “Him vs. Joshua on Netflix would shut down the UK lol.” While a bout of that magnitude would undoubtedly captivate fans, it’s worth noting that Joshua and his promoter, Eddie Hearn, have consistently expressed interest in making the all-British clash happen. The only wrinkle? 

Hearn’s ongoing partnership with DAZN, which would likely secure streaming rights—unless, of course, something seismic changes.
