Tyson Fury’s comeback fight against Arslanbek Mahmudov will take place at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium when he returns to boxing on April 11.
It will be the first time Fury has boxed in the UK since winning his trilogy fight with Derek Chisora in 2022, also held at the 62,850-seater stadium in north London.
Fury lost the World Heavyweight Championship he held when Oleksandr Usyk defeated him in their Undisputed Championship bout in 2024. Usyk repeated his points victory over Fury in the rematch.

“He’s taking care of himself and he’s in shape. He’s going to be in fighting condition, he’s ready to go and he’s going out to prove a point. I’m looking forward to the fight.
“It’s a big fight. Tyson did it, he still holds the record for the highest-grossing event at Wembley.”
“He’s a big attraction.”
