Bob Arum, the promoter for Tyson Fury, has shared two potential opponents for his clients next fight.<\/p>\n

With Anthony Joshua set to rematch Oleksandr Usyk, it was ruled Dillian Whyte was the mandatory challenger<\/a> for Fury. However, Whyte has been asking for too much money and now the WBC has ruled the Brit can face someone in a non-title fight next. Now, according to Arum, Andy Ruiz Jr. is one of the two names being floated around.<\/p>\n

\u201cDillian Whyte could have that fight. We would do that fight,”<\/em> Arum said about Fury’s next fight to iFL TV<\/a> (via TalkSport<\/a>). “But they\u2019re \u2013 in our view \u2013 very greedy with what they\u2019re asking\u2026 We\u2019ve offered them a big, good deal. A purse deal far more than they\u2019ve ever gotten in any fight, and that hasn\u2019t moved them. We\u2019ve talked to the head of the WBC \u2013 Mauricio Sulaiman. And he said, \u2018Look, it breaks my heart, but go find another opponent, fight without the WBC title, we\u2019re not gonna take it away from you, and go about your business.\u2019<\/em><\/p>\n

“Dillian Whyte really should come to the table and make the deal to fight Tyson Fury,”<\/em> Arum continued. “But that\u2019s not likely to happen, so they\u2019re gonna play out the arbitration and Frank Warren and I are looking for another opponent to do Fury\u2019s fight in Manchester or Las Vegas. Andy Ruiz Jr. is a possibility. Robert Helenius \u2013 big, Finnish kid who can really fight. Those are the two principle guys.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n

Ruiz Jr., of course, is best known for his shocking KO win over Joshua back in 2019 to become the heavyweight champ. Helenius, meanwhile, is 31-3 and on a three-fight winning streak. Regardless, it appears Fury’s next fight will not be against Whyte as he waits to see who wins the Usyk-Joshua rematch.<\/p>\n
