On Wednesday, Fury appeared in an interview session on Good Morning Britain. There he says about exhibition bouts, “This is not professional boxing, this is pure entertainment – Hollywood-style entertainment. That is all it is. Nothing more, nothing less.”
“The difference with the exhibition is you’re not there to win or lose – you’re there to enjoy it, have a good time, and put a show on for the fans.”
He also added, “You can fight old-timers, famous people, or whoever you want. So I am looking at fighting Mike Tyson, Lennox Lewis, Frank Bruno, even someone like Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson, that would be fantastic.”
