Thor Bjornsson and Tyson Fury are not in talks for an exhibition bout, according to the world heavyweight champion's promoter, Frank Warren.
The pair, each of whom stand at 6'9", have been going back-and-forth on social media and Bjornsson appeared last week to believe there was a real possibility that he could end up in an exhibition bout with the Brit. However, Warren has poured cold water on those discussions, telling a number of outlets that as far as he's concerned, no talks have happened as yet.
Fury and Bjornsson have been going at one another on social media for weeks despite initially appearing to be friendly during a meeting back in December. They are angling for an exhibition fight, which Fury has said would be the only way he'd return to the ring.
