Description

At a press conference in London on 12 April 2018, Fury announced he had signed a multi-deal with Frank Warren's Queensberry Promotions. He stated that intended to fight at least three times before 2019, starting on 9 June at the Manchester Arena in Manchester. This would make Fury's first time fighting at the arena and his first fight in Manchester since 2011. After weeks of speculation, it was confirmed the fight would be shown exclusively on BT Sport. On 20 May, 39 year old Albanian boxer Sefer Seferi (23-1, 21 KOs) was announced as Fury's opponent in a 10-round bout. Seferi was a career cruiserweight, having fought once at heavyweight losing to Manuel Charr in 2016. Fury weighed 276 pounds at the weigh in, 66 pounds heavier than Seferi. It was said that Fury had lost 112 pounds for the fight.

Result Description
Fury won the fight after Seferi quit on his stool after round 4.The opening couple of rounds had little to no action as Fury was showboating. He was then warned by referee Phil Edwards in round 2. A brawl also broke out in the crowd during the fight, but order was restored before the fight came to an end. Fury began to unload heavy shots in round 4 and it appeared many of the shots landed had hurt Seferi, hence why he retired on his stool.
