Tommy Fury faces former world’s strongest man, Eddie Hall in a bizarre heavyweight exhibition in Manchester on Saturday.
Fury will meet Hall at the AO Arena, live on DAZN pay-per-view and DAZN ultimate.
Fury’s boxing career has stalled since two money-spinning showdowns with YouTube sensations, Jake Paul and KSI respectively.
The 27-year-old, half-brother of former heavyweight world champion, Tyson Fury beat both men by decision in 2023 and has only fought once since, sidelined with a hand injury.
The Manchester man pulled out of a scheduled clash with Darren Till before returning in a low-key points win over Kenan Hanjalic in Hungary last May.
Hall, who won the world’s strongest man competition in 2017, has only had one boxing fight prior, losing out to strongman rival Thor Björnsson in another exhibition in 2022.
The 38-year-old is expected to weigh at least 10 stone heavier than his vastly more experienced rival and the pair will fight over six, two-minute rounds.
Prediction: Hall may have the size and power advantage, but is surely out of his depth here and Fury should be able to box his way to a comfortable points victory.
Taylor faces Floyd
Anthony Taylor faces Matt Floyd in a light heavyweight clash on the undercard.
Taylor, a former sparring partner of Jake Paul, was beaten by Fury in 2021 and is coming off back-to-back losses to Darren Till and Neeraj Goyat respectively.

Floyd is a former UBO cruiserweight champion and was beaten by James DeGale in a scrappy bare knuckle battle in September.
Prediction: Floyd can secure a points win.
