REPORT: Tyson Fury vs. Wladimir Klitschko rematch could take place in the Aviva Stadium this summer

Could Tyson Fury beat Conor McGregor to an Irish stadium fight?

Reports today suggest that the much-discussed rematch between Fury and former heavyweight champion Wladimir Klitschko is in the works for Dublin's Aviva Stadium this summer. The Evening Herald's Eamon Carr has revealed that discussions are underway between Fury’s promoter Mick Hennessy, Klitschko Management Group and Irish promotion company MCD with an eye for the contractually obliged rematch to take place in the Irish capital on June 4. Fury is thought to be pushing for the fight to happen in Dublin, after revealing lucrative offers from Abu Dhabi and Qatar, as well as a ludicrous approach to fight on an exclusive cruise "with just 120 millionaires on board paying $1 million each to watch. No TV, no press. Just some of the wealthiest men in the world. And it was deadly serious". Fury has recently claimed that Croke Park was the Irish stadium that was being spoken about but Carr is a reliable source and he believes the Aviva is preferred. "Nothing has been agreed," Fury told the Daily Mail earlier this week. "We are in negotiation with two Middle East venues, Abu Dhabi and Qatar, Croke Park in Dublin, Wembley and for Germany again." The first bout ended with an upset victory in favour of the Manchester-born Fury who shocked the world by claiming a comprehensive decision win over the long-time champion in Germany last November. Fury represented Ireland at amateur level and claims that his father was born in Galway so there are connections between the undefeated 27-year-old and the Irish people and you'd imagine the fight would sell out in seconds.
