Hughie Fury vs Christian Thun Sept 27th

Hughie Fury, with a record of 28-3 (16 KOs), is set to make his return to the ring on September 27 at the Canon Medical Arena in Sheffield. The 29-year-old heavyweight from Manchester will headline the GBM Sports event, marking his third fight of the year.

Fury's previous outings this year include a six-round decision victory over Kostiantyn Dovbyshchenko and a second-round stoppage of Patrick Korte. The upcoming bout against Christian Thun will be broadcast live on DAZN.

Christian Thun, based in Miami, stands an imposing 6ft 8 1/2 inches tall and holds a record of 9-1 (7 KOs). Fury, who has previously faced top names like Joseph Parker, Alexander Povetkin, Samuel Peter, and Kubrat Pulev, is looking to build momentum for another major run in the division.

Thun, after suffering the first loss of his career in a majority decision over eight rounds against Curtis Harper, took a two-year hiatus from the sport. He returned to the ring earlier this year, securing a third-round stoppage against journeyman southpaw Jason Bergman in Florida.
