Fury vs Makhmudov: London venue in mix after Manchester explored

Former champion Tyson Fury makes his comeback against Arslanbek Makhmudov in April, live on Netflix from the UK

Tyson Fury makes his comeback against Arslanbek Makhmudov on April 11, with Tottenham Hotspur Stadium in London reported – but not yet officially confirmed – as the venue. The heavyweight showdown airs live on Netflix, marking the first boxing event streamed on the platform from the UK.

Britain’s former two-time WBC champion Fury (34-2-1, 24 KOs) returns to the ring for the first time since facing Oleksandr Usyk in their rematch in late 2024. Montreal-based Makhmudov (21-2, 19 KOs) comes off a unanimous decision victory over David Allen last October.

According to Talksport, Old Trafford in Stretford, Manchester, had initially been explored as a potential venue for Fury’s homecoming fight. However, on Wednesday, The Sun reported that Tottenham Hotspur Stadium in North London would host the bout.

The official announcement, including event details, is expected to be made during a launch press conference on Monday in London.
