He doesn't have an opponent yet. WBC mandatory DillianWhyte seems not to be ready to accept a 20% share of the purse.

Joseph Parker, a fellow heavyweight, was also present alongside Fury and Williams. He is still waiting for his title shot.

Derek Chisora was defeated by Parker for the second time in their rematch. He is also the former WBO belt-holder.

Williams, who fought 58 times between 2010-2019 for New Zealand's rugby union side, is now a professional boxer.

He has fought eight times and won all with three knockouts.

The 36-year old is returning to the ring when he takes on Barry Hall in Sydney on March 23.

Fury is keen to fight at Old Trafford next in order to secure his "hero's homecoming".

He stated, "It has always been my dream that I fight at Old Trafford."

Talk has also surfaced about Fury facing Whyte in Cardiff, for an all-British showdown.

Fury could also fight Andy Ruiz Jr in the USA.

After fighting Deontay Wilder twice in Las Vegas, and once in Los Angeles, the heavyweight world champion has not fought in Britain since his fight with Francesco Pianeta.
