Devin Haney’s Warning Raises Serious Doubt Over David Benavidez’s Next Big Fight
2026-06-01
Devin Haney warns David Benavidez against returning to 175 pounds as talks of a potential Dmitry Bivol fight continue.
Tyson Fury’s next fight remains one of boxing’s biggest unanswered questions after Eddie Hearn revealed that he already knows the identity of Fury’s upcoming opponent but is not prepared to make it public. The Matchroom Boxing chairman discussed the situation in an interview that surfaced on social media on June 7, adding another layer of intrigue to the heavyweight division. Fury is expected to return later this year as he works toward a possible blockbuster fight with Anthony Joshua. Hearn’s comments came while discussing Joshua’s scheduled July 25 bout against unbeaten Albanian heavyweight Kristian Prenga. Although he stopped short of naming Fury’s opponent, Hearn offered insight into the thinking behind the former heavyweight champion’s next move and why a lower-risk fight could make sense at this stage of his career. Eddie Hearn Discusses Tyson Fury’s Next Fight Speculation around Tyson Fury’s next fight has grown in recent weeks, but Hearn made it clear that he would not reveal any details. “I know who he’s fighting. And I’m not going to say because it’s not my…” Hearn said before explaining that the opponent is “not a horrendous” choice. When asked whether Fury’s next opponent would be a tougher challenge than Joshua’s upcoming fight against Kristian Prenga, Hearn was cautious in his response. “I don’t think so, but there’ll be reasons for you to think that he might be,” he said. The comments suggest that Fury’s next fight is unlikely to be against one of the division’s leading contenders. Instead, it appears to be a bout designed to help him regain momentum before pursuing larger opportunities later in the year. Tyson Fury’s Next Fight Could Be a Tune-Up Before Anthony Joshua Eddie Hearn also backed the decision to take a safer fight before stepping into a major heavyweight showdown. “Why would you fight anyone of any threat?” Hearn said. He pointed to Fury’s most recent performance, where the former champion went the full 12 rounds after spending a long period away from the ring. “So I think it’s about him having another fight,” Hearn explained. “I’m not screaming and shouting about it. If that’s what he feels he needs, he’s fighting a guy that he’ll have no fear at all with. It will be absolutely fine.” The approach mirrors Anthony Joshua's path. The former world champion is set to face Prenga on July 25 in a fight widely viewed as a comeback bout. Prenga enters the contest unbeaten and known for his knockout power, but the matchup is seen as a chance for Joshua to stay active and sharpen his form. Heavyweight Division Builds Toward Major Fights Tyson Fury’s return comes at a key moment for the heavyweight division. Reports have linked Fury and Joshua to a potential showdown in Saudi Arabia later this year, a fight that would rank among the biggest events in modern boxing. At the same time, the division continues to evolve. Oleksandr Usyk remains the undisputed heavyweight champion, while younger contenders such as Jared Anderson and Moses Itauma continue to rise through the rankings. For Fury, another victory could provide the ideal platform for a future fight with Joshua. Until an official announcement arrives, fans are left waiting to learn who will stand across the ring from the former champion. As Hearn put it, “I guess we’ll see.”
