Promoter Bob Arum says Tyson Fury will be fighting next on either September 7th or 21st in New York at “Madison Square Garden”, according to Mike Coppinger @theathleticBox.
Arum will be meeting with MTK Global reps to talk about Fury’s opponent for September.
Lineal heavyweight champion Fury(28-0-1, 20 KOs) is coming off of a second round knockout win over Tom Schwarz on June 15 in Las Vegas, Nevada. It wasn’t much of a fight, but it wasn’t meant to be. Top Rank Boxing promotion wanted to introduce Fury to USA casual fans to get them ready to see him against Wilder in early 2020.

It’s important for Top Rank to match Fury against a good heavyweight for his next fight in September. Schwarz looked really poor in offering up very little resistance before getting stopped in the second round.
