“I think I’m going to let Dana do the speaking,” Fury said during the UFC Freedom 250 broadcast at the White House. “I’ll let him do the speaking, but it’s a massive, massive, massive announcement.”

Fury, 35-2-1 (24 KOs), has become a regular presence at Riyadh Season events in recent years. He headlined the first undisputed heavyweight championship fight of the four-belt era against Oleksandr Usyk in May 2024 and returned for their rematch later that year.

After announcing his retirement earlier this year, Fury resumed his career on April 11 and defeated Arslanbek Makhmudov by unanimous decision at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium in London.

Attention has since shifted toward a long-discussed clash with Anthony Joshua. The two British heavyweights have reportedly signed agreements for a fight later this year, although both are expected to compete once before meeting.

Joshua is scheduled to face Kristian Prenga on July 25 in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia. Fury has also been linked to a summer return, though no opponent has been officially announced.

Dana White and Alalshikh launched Zuffa Boxing in 2025. Among the fighters who have signed with the promotional venture are cruiserweight champion Jai Opetaia and British welterweight Conor Benn.

Fury has worked with Hall of Fame promoter Frank Warren throughout much of his professional career, including his victories over Wladimir Klitschko and Deontay Wilder. Fury did not provide additional details regarding how his latest announcement could affect that long-standing relationship.

Before any meeting with Joshua can take place, Fury must first navigate his expected summer return.
