The countdown to Tyson Fury's next venture in the ring is well and truly on, though question marks remain as to who exactly he will face.
Dillian Whyte has been mandated for a shot at Fury 's heavyweight title by the WBC but the two parties have been unable to agree to terms, with purse bids set to begin on Tuesday.
While there is hope that an agreement with Whyte can be reached, Fury's stance is clear that he will be active in the first quarter of the year ahead of a potential heavyweight unification bout with Oleksandr Usyk or Anthony Joshua.
