Tommy Fury has agreed to fight Roy Jones Jr in an exhibition bout.<\/p>\n

Fury, 24, crossed paths with boxing legend Jones, 54, in Saudi Arabia ahead of his half-brother Tyson's crossover fight against former UFC heavyweight champion Francis Ngannou. They were caught on camera by Boxing King Media.<\/p>\n

Jones had a proposition for him – suggesting they face each other on the undercard of his dad John's proposed fight with Mike Tyson. "I said if your father fights Mike, me and you do the co-main event," he said.<\/p>\n

Fury was game, replying: "Hey, let's do it." Before Jones added: "That would be out of this world, brother. If they fight, me and him on the undercard. That would be out of this world."<\/p>\n

Reacting afterwards, a buzzing Fury said: "Absolutely insane, I've just done a face off with Roy Jones Jr. Let's get this stuff made, regardless of if Mike and my dad don't fight, me and Roy Jones exhibition, let's do it why not."<\/p>\n

That's despite him declaring he'd be returning to his professional career after his victory over KSI earlier this month. "A lot went on in the build-up. I'm done with this cross-over s***," he said post-fight.<\/p>\n

Jones retired in 2018 – a year before Fury appeared on Love Island. He's since returned to the ring on two occasions, first against Tyson in a November 2020 exhibition which ended in a draw.<\/p>\n

He lost on points to ex-UFC champion Anthony Pettis in April in his most recent outing. Fury, meanwhile, is 10-0 with four knockouts to his name.<\/p>\n
