Fight Preview
One of the greatest heavyweights of the modern era makes his return from retirement on April 11, as Tyson Fury resumes his chase another heavyweight title when he steps into the ring with Arslanbek Makhmudov.
The Gypsy King was the dominant fighter for many years in the division, before back-to-back losses against Oleksandr Usyk sent Fury into retirement.
Despite the losses, many still regard Fury as the greatest heavyweight in history, with his trilogy bouts against Deontay Wilder seeing him become the lineal world champion. The 37-year-old has won 24 of his 37 professional bouts inside the distance, and he will be expected to put on a show against an unfavored rival in London.
However, shocks can happen in the heavyweight division, meaning the big-punching Arslanbek Makhmudov shouldn’t be completely overlooked.
The Russian has held several regional and minor titles in the heavyweight class, and he has recorded a stunning 19 KO wins in his 23 bouts. One of his biggest victories to date was recorded on English soil in October 2025, as he scored a shock unanimous decision win against David Allen.
