WWE superstar Drew McIntyre says he is ready to take on boxing legend Tyson Fury
A fight between WWE superstar Drew McIntyre and boxing sensation Tyson Fury could soon be in the works.
The two have been embroiled in a war of words before and fans have speculated that a fight could soon follow. And McIntyre was speaking about just that earlier this week.
In an interview with The Big Issue, the Scotsman said that Fury is ‘stalking him’ on social media and maybe it’s time that he responds to him.
“Tyson Fury is stalking me. It’s the most bizarre sentence. I’d wake up every day and I’ve got another message on social media from Tyson Fury. Maybe I should answer him.”
This is a match wrestling fans in particular would love to see. McIntyre is not adept at boxing so any realistic fight would be inside the WWE ring.
And ‘The Chosen One’ mentioned that he believes a fight will happen between the two because Fury just ‘gets wrestling’.
“It’s going to happen. The thing is he has a genuine love for wrestling and he’s such an entertainer, he gets it. I know we could do some fun business together. Probably some kind of Battle of Britain would be the theme.”
Fury coming to WWE is certainly a possibility considering the fact that a boxing legend like Floyd Mayweather has appeared on the promotion in the past.
And it can be a match big enough to headline any future WrestleMania event. But for now, McIntyre’s focus would lie elsewhere.
He faces Bobby Lashley and Braun Strowman in a triple threat match for the WWE championship at WrestleMania Backlash on 16th May.
