Tommy Fury will return to the ring after almost a year since his last fight, taking on former world’s strongest man, Eddie Hall. The fight is set to take place at the AO Arena on June 13 as part of the latest Misfits card, broadcast live on DAZN.
Fury, 26, holds an unblemished 11-0 professional record and is the younger half-brother of two-time World Heavyweight Champion Tyson Fury.
He has notched up wins against KSI and Jake Paul, with his latest victory coming against Kenan Hanjalic last May. Yet, he has never faced an opponent quite as formidable as Hall.

The former champion of the prestigious World’s Strongest Man competition, has one professional bout under his belt – a defeat to Icelander Hafthor Bjornsson, known for playing The Mountain in Game of Thrones, in 2022.
Hall will be aiming to secure his first victory – and could enter the bout with a staggering ten stone weight advantage over Fury.
When Fury last fought, he weighed in at just under 90kg. In contrast, Hall has tipped the scales at more than double that during his strongman days and trimmed down to 152kg for an MMA contest last year.
Hall was spotted at Darren Till’s Gorilla Promotions in Birmingham on Sunday, where he teased the upcoming announcement.
“I’ve got a fight coming up on June 13 in Manchester that’ll be announced very, very soon,” he said. “I want to get in there, of course [as soon as possible].
“I’ve got a big fight coming up. It will be on Misfits… I’ve been told the Dillon Danis fight will happen before the end of the year, so let’s make it happen.”
As for Fury, he beat Kenan Hanjalic by unanimous decision in Budapest back in May 2025, and had been in line to fight former UFC star Darren Till before the fight collapsed.
