Earlier today Frank Warren and promotional vehicle "Queensberry Promotions" announced that both Tyson and Hughie Fury would be featured on his upcoming show at London's Copper Box.
The show, on February 15th, was already set to have a European title fight between Dereck Chisora and Andriy Rudenko on it in a hard hitting Heavyweight battle. It now looks likely that Tyson Fury, whose opponent has yet to be named, will be taking on the winner of the Chisora/Rudenko bout in an attempt to claim the European title.
For Tyson's young cousin Hughie things are less exciting, at least in the immediate future. Although his bout is likely to be televised it's unlikely he'll be facing anyone of note as he continues to develop. There is hope that he'll be moved on to an English or British title fight by summer though we're not going to make assumptions like that as, in all honesty, we don't think he'll be ready for either.
We're expecting both Fury's to have their fights shown, live, on Boxnation in the United Kingdom. Hopefully we'll get the opponents names in the next day or two though we're not expecting anything too exciting with both men likely to play it safe for now.
