Tommy Fury will revisit Jake Paul fight next year with target date planned

Tommy Fury will look to fight Jake Paul early next year providing he comes through his latest test against Paul Bamba.

Fury has not fought since picking up victory on his brother Tyson's heavyweight title defence against Dillian Whyte back in April when he outpointed Daniel Bocianski. 'TNT' then signed his contract to face long-term rival Paul for a second time after the fight was called off last December, but the event was shelved once again with the British star prevented from travelling to the US.

Since his meeting with Paul collapsed, Fury has remained in training and will now take on ex-Marine Corps Bamba on the undercard of Floyd Mayweather's exhibition with Deji on November 13 in Dubai. And his promoter Frank Warren has revealed in a brief update that he and the rest of Fury's team will look to put on a rescheduled event next year providing he progresses beyond his next test.
