Tyson Fury has a number of possible massive fights lined up for him in the upcoming months. Despite that, Fury teases a crossover fight with Drew McIntyre every now and then. This time around, however, he has made things a bit more ‘official’.
In a video released from on his social media, Fury has issued an ‘official’ challenge to WWE Heavyweight champion Drew McIntyre.
“Been sitting on the train on the way home after a long busy weekend and I’m thinking about the people that I wanna punch in the face. The first one that comes to mind is a big fellow named Drew McIntyre. Drew, you’ve been having quite a bit to say about me lately. I’d love to punch your face honestly,” Fury said on Twitter.

“So grow a pair and step up on the plate, like I say to your mate AJ and come and fight the master, that is, me. This is an official challenge video to Drew McIntyre, the WWE heavyweight champion of the world. I already knocked your pal out, Braun Strowman. I’ll do the same to you,” he added.
Drew McIntyre had earlier accused Tyson Fury of ducking Anthony Joshua
The feud between McIntyre and Fury began after the former called out the WBC heavyweight champ back in April. Just one day after his win over Brock Lesnar at Wrestlemania, the Scotsman said that he’s coming for Tyson Fury. ‘The Gypsy King’ accepted the challenge almost instantly.
Fury had made his WWE debut last year with a win over Braun Strowman at Crown Jewels. Since then, he has teased a return to WWE multiple times. The most recent one was when he called out McIntyre for a fight anywhere, anytime, and anyplace.
The WWE champion replied to Fury by accusing him of ducking a unification bout with Anthony Joshua.
“Anything to duck the AJ fight, ey? You know where to find me dosser. Let’s make history,” McIntyre wrote on Twitter.
While McIntyre and Fury go back-and-forth, it seems as though they are on a collision course. However, Fury has other contractual obligations to take care of, such as his trilogy with Deontay Wilder. If he comes out victorious, he may have to defend his belt against Dillian Whyte before a title unification fight with Anthony Joshua.
