If what Tyson Fury said is true, his next fight after knocking out Dillian Whyte on Saturday would not be in the boxing ring. Instead, it could very well be in WWE at the SummerSlam.
In his post-fight presser, the Gypsy King shared that people should not rule him out from participating in the said event. While he did not confirm whether he'll really be joining or not, he did show his interest. Besides, if he does join, he shared his desire to get into the ring with Drew McIntyre.
“You might see me at SummerSlam coming up soon. I’ve got to speak to Vince [McMahon] and the boys. Maybe make this happen,” Fury said, per BT Sports. “I know Drew McIntyre has been saying a lot of things about me. I have to knock him out.”
Tyson Fury ended his statement saying he wants to be at Cardiff, in reference to the planned WWE event at Principality Stadium in on September 3. The event still has no official name, so it's unknown if the heavyweight boxing champion is referring to two separate events or just the show in the UK.
"Don't rule me out of fighting there! You might see me at SummerSlam. I got to speak to Vince and the boys! I know @DMcIntyreWWE has been saying a lot of things about me! I'd love to be at Cardiff!" – @Tyson_Fury 👀

Still, seeing Fury fight McIntyre (or anyone really) in the WWE would be a huge attraction for wrestling fans. Besides, after seeing him knock out Whyte in the sixth round of their WBC heavyweight fight, who doesn't want to watch him in the ring once again?
Hopefully, McMahon and the rest of WWE make it happen.
