The final month of his hiatus saw Brit rival Anthony Joshua take on social media sensation Paul in a multi-million-pound Miami melee.

Fury savaged AJ for taking the fight, saying: “He’s 37-years-old, at the end of his career, fighting a YouTuber, a Disney channel guy, who Tommy [Fury] beat.”

The former two-time heavyweight champion found himself on the receiving end of a callout from Paul before the AJ fight.

But the prospect of sharing the ring with the influencer, or any social media star for that matter, is something Fury is firmly against.

Promoter Frank Warren told Sky Sports: “Tyson has categorically said he doesn’t want to fight anything like that.

“That’s not something that’s on his agenda.”

Fury, 37, will make his ring return against Russian man-mountain Arslanbek Makhmudov live on Netflix on April 11.

The fight will be the Wythenshawe warrior’s first since his back-to-back losses to pound-for-pound king Oleksandr Usyk in 2024.

Fury is champing at the bit for his latest comeback, although that feeling isn’t shared by everyone in his family.

He told the Daily Mail: “My dad stopped speaking to me for a while.

“My brothers stopped speaking to me, even Paris. Everybody cut me off.

“Nobody wanted me to return and they made that clear… but, it’s my decision and my life.

“It’s my decision to make, it’s but probably a bit selfish.

It’s just I’m at my happiest when I’m in that ring entertaining people and I have no plans to stop any time soon.

“I’ll probably keep fighting until I’m 50, I’d say.”
