Fabio Wardley is keen to defend his WBO world title against Tyson Fury, following the latter's decision to come out of retirement.

Wardley was elevated as the new WBO world champion following Oleksandr Usyk's decision to relinquish the belt after being ordered to make a mandatory title defence against the British heavyweight.

Fury, who confirmed his latest comeback on Sunday, name-checked Wardley as one of several possible opponents on social media.

Speaking to Sky Sports, the unbeaten Wardley confirmed he is eager to face Fury in 2026.

He says it was good that he is on Fury’s list, but it makes no difference to him.
