Tyson Fury to fight on 5 December in London

WBC world heavyweight boxing champion, Tyson Fury says he will fight in London on 5 December against an opponent who will be named soon.

This month the Briton said he had "moved on" from facing Deontay Wilder for a third time in December and would instead be "coming home" to fight.

Fury's most recent fight was winning the WBC title from Wilder in February following their draw in 2018.

Compatriot Anthony Joshua will attempt to defend his IBF, WBA and WBO world heavyweight titles against Bulgaria's Kubrat Pulev on 12 December in London.

Fury has not competed in the UK since August 2018, with his past four bouts taking place in the US.

His third bout with Wilder was slated for July this year and later aimed at October before plans emerged for a December fight in the US.
