Tyson Fury Discusses Potential Wladimir Klitschko Rematch, Names Desired Venues

World heavyweight champion Tyson Fury is unsure whether Wladimir Klitschko will take up his option for a rematch, but he is eager to stage a fight at either Dublin's Croke Park or Manchester United's Old Trafford.

Fury shocked Klitschko in Dusseldorf on Saturday to claim the WBA super, WBO and IBF heavyweight titles, and the Ukrainian legend is contractually entitled to a rematch.

The Englishman did not rule out the possibility of facing the 39-year-old again and named two huge venues at which he would like to fight now that he is the heavyweight champion of the world, per Ireland's RTE Radio:

"

I don't know if he is going to take the rematch or not. There is a contract to say he is entitled to a rematch. I don't know where it is going to be. I have always said I would like to fight at Croke Park. Maybe that can be a reality one day.

One of the [venues I wanted to fight in] was Madison Square Garden and I did that one. One of them was Old Trafford and I haven't done that one. And the other one is Croke Park. They are the three venues I wanted to box in—I wasn't really interested in Las Vegas and all of them places. The three I always said was Croke Park, United and Madison Square Garden.

"

Fury was the significant underdog for the fight at the Esprit Arena, Klitschko having dominated the heavyweight division for the last decade.

However, the self-styled Gypsy King came away with a victory by unanimous decision following an assured and confident display, per BBC Sport's Ben Dirs:

"

This place has just gone ballistic. Fully deserved, Fury boxed well and Klitschko, who suddenly looked old, just could not work him out

A rematch would be another massive event, and because he is now the champion, Fury could likely dictate the venue.

Croke Park is Ireland's biggest stadium, with a capacity of over 82,000, while the 75,000-seater Old Trafford is eclipsed in the UK only by Wembley and Twickenham.

Either would be a worthy location if Klitschko decides he wants another crack at the 27-year-old Fury.

However, he may opt to retire, or Fury may be allowed a voluntary defence before taking on the former champion again.

His options for future opponents are limited. Anthony Joshua is a rising star, and a fight between Joshua and Fury would be a massive event for British boxing, but the Olympic gold medallist is only 14 fights into his professional career. 

WBC heavyweight champion Deontay Wilder has indicated that he would be open to a unification fight in the UK, per BBC Radio 5 live Sport:

Meanwhile, David Haye has announced that he is going to return to the ring, but Fury has consistently ruled out any possibility of taking him on in the future given their chequered history, per Dirs.

Another fight with Klitschko would probably be the best option, but the former champion must take up the rematch clause if that is to happen.
