Tyson Furry may be in connection for a stunning homecoming after expressing a willingness to fight at Old Trafford.
Tyson Furry saved his WBC title with an eleventh round stoppage triumph over Deontay Wilder on Saturday night, and all eyes are now on the Gypsy King's upcoming fight.Manchester United's stadium hasn't featured a boxing match since Nigel Benn faced Chris Eubank in October 1993.
When talking about the possibility of a fight at the Theatre of Dreams, Tyson Fury, a Manchester United huge admirer, made a joke that the city would be unable to manage his and Cristiano Ronaldo's egos.
I only have 2 fights remaining here, and I'd love to bring a world champion fight back to Manchester "He said to the Sun a week ago.
PA: Tyson Fury with Frank WarrenFighting at Old Trafford has always been my dream. Almost 28 years ago, in 1993, the last and biggest fight was Chris Eubank Versus Nigel Benn.
"I feel good Cristiano is back at Old Trafford, but this place isn't much enough for the two of us!
"It would be difficult if I stayed in Manchester." And I'm in Morecambe, an hour up the highway, so he's got so much time.
Promoter Frank Warren is keen to make the potential of a fight on United Kingdom soil a reality, and he is convinced that another fight will draw a sell-out audience wherever it is hosted.
I'd want a homecoming above all else, for the sake of the British supporters and everything. "He is up there with the top heavyweights of his period," he said The Daily Star.

Take a look at his height, face, and heart to see how he keeps getting up off the ground. That was the most brilliant heavyweight match I've ever watched.
He would have been a star performer at any time. Tyson Furry can easily sell out any ground in the United Kingdom. The followers will come out in support of him.
Most things are easy to achieve, and we'll just sit down and figure out how we're going to achieve them.
PA: Dillian WhyteA mouth-watering all-British fight with Dillian Whyte might be on the board for a home fight, however the Body Stealer has a bout with Otto Wallin coming next month.
However, Tyson Fury is currently enjoying the success of his Saturday triumph and will spend more time away from the sport.
"I've merely earned a well-deserved break; I have been home in 6 months, so I'm gon na to take enjoy in this triumph before having thought about fighting other boxer."
"It was one of my biggest successes; I got up off the ground to do it, and I am the pit bull in this group.
