Tyson Fury has been offered a comeback fight against American heavyweight contender Brandon Moore.

Fury has been posting daily updates on social media of his preparations after announcing that he intends to resume his boxing career this year.

A date and venue are yet to be confirmed for Fury's return, but Moore has been put forward as a potential opponent by his promoter Dmitriy Salita, who is keen to hold negotiations over a fight.

Salita told Sky Sports that Brandon Moore is the reigning USBA Heavyweight Champion and is coming off three straight victories over previously undefeated fighters.

He says from a physical standpoint, he reflects the modern heavyweight profile associated with Anthony Joshua while very much being his own fighter.

He adds this is someone who wants to test himself at the highest level, and facing Tyson Fury represents exactly that.

Moore holds a record of 19 victories, with 10 stoppages, and one defeat.

Fury posted footage of himself on a training run before carrying a tree log on his shoulders as he jogged through a field.

Fury said on Instagram that winning is done in silence, hard work is done in silence and it is not all lights, cameras and actions.
