Fury’s plan outline plans for three bouts in 2018, with his first professional fight since dethroning Wladimir Klitschko and ending his nine-year tenure as World Champion planned for April.

Fury plans to “be ready to fight in April 2018 in a great fight,” before making an abrupt return only a couple of months later and a final bout coming as 2018 approaches its end “again in the summer in a mega fight and again in back end of year. Three big fights in 2018.” Fury stated when he took to social media on Thursday.

The latest tweet from Fury, follows soon after he had tweeted the week before, that he would not be reapplying for a British boxing board of control and intended on “taking his money elsewhere”. The former world heavyweight champion is still serving a suspension after a UK Anti-Doping investigation confirmed he had tested positive for the banned substance benzoylecgonine, the primary component in cocaine. The failed test led to his licence being revoked by the British Boxing Board of Control.
