The Tyson The Gypsy King Fury comeback is now official after months of speculation that it was happening and what a way it is happening.
It is happening on Netflix no less.
The world’s biggest streaming company.
Here are the details:
Opponent: Arslanbek Makhmudov (Canadian-based Russian heavyweight, record 21-2 with 19 KOs, known as a dangerous knockout puncher).
Date: April 11, 2026.Location: United Kingdom (exact venue/arena not yet announced).
Broadcast: Live worldwide on Netflix (their first UK live boxing event).
Background: Fury (34-2-1) retired in January 2025 after two losses to Oleksandr Usyk in 2024, but unretired earlier this month.
This is a return bout, likely a stepping stone toward bigger fights (possibly Anthony Joshua later in 2026 or more).
Here is some of the reaction so far:
Overall, a good opponent for Fury’s comeback and the fact it is on Netflix is huge.
For them and Fury, both will see massive increase in their brands once again because of boxing.
Boxing will also gain again as a sport from this.
Roll on.
Tyson Fury had promised big news and he delivered on it.
