Tyson Fury 2026 UK Fight Dates & Venues

At present, one confirmed fight date has been announced for Tyson Fury in 2026:

  • 11 April 2026 — Tyson Fury vs Arslanbek Makhmudov (venue TBC in the UK; live on Netflix)

While the exact stadium for the April 11 fight is yet to be revealed, all signs point to a major UK venue, such as a national arena or stadium, befitting Fury’s stature.

Future fights — including a potential all‑British blockbuster against Anthony Joshua or a heavyweight title trilogy showdown with Oleksandr Usyk — are being discussed for later in the year.

Where Is Tyson Fury Fighting in the UK?

The April 11 fight will be in the United Kingdom with the location to be announced. Previously, the boxer has fought at venues such as Tottenham Hotspur Stadium and Wembley Stadium, and expectations are high for another major location announcement.

Did Tyson Fury win his last fight?

No, after a long career with no losses, Tyson Fury was beaten by Oleksandr Usyk in May 2024, and then in a rematch in December. This meant that he relinquished his heavyweight champion titles to the Ukrainian boxer. 

The Gypsy King must be even more eager to prove his best days are not yet behind him, and you won’t want to miss the energy he’ll bring to the ring in 2025.
