Misfits chief updates on Tommy Fury and Eddie Hall futures after milestone event

Mams Taylor, co-president of Mams Boxing, has teased working with Tommy Fury and Eddie Hall again on their next fights.

And as one of the chiefs of the promotion, he has revealed that their fight was a booming success.

Fury outpointed Hall in what was a blockbuster and successful event, which sold out an arena, with thousands watching worldwide.

The pair clearly are draws in the crossover boxing market, notably Fury, who has fought several times under the Misfits banner.

Reports have indicated that Fury will return in December in what could be another blockbuster bout.

And in an exclusive chat with talkSPORT.com, Taylor refused to confirm the exact details, but expects to work with both fighters again.

He said: “We’ll announce this in due course, but we’re looking forward to working with Tommy and Eddie again soon.

And there is a whole host of other fighters that will be out again soon, some new and some familiar faces as well.”

Fury is likely to remain in crossover boxing despite temptations from the traditional ranks.

It will likely need to be another big name to generate a lucrative opportunity.

Meanwhile Hall is eyeing a title shot in MMA and is keen to get into the cage.

But Misfits may well launch into cage promotion, and an opportunity could still be on the table.

Fury vs Hall – a box office success that broke new ground

It is no wonder that Taylor wants to keep Fury and Hall as part of the stable given the commercial success of the event.

And Taylor revealed that the fight went down as the third highest-selling Misfits pay-per-view, showing signs that there is still demand.

He continued: “DAZN did a really good job on the marketing, we did really well, so that was our third biggest pay-per-view.

“The event absolutely smashed it beyond anyone’s projections and expectations, and I think there’s more of that to come.

“Yes, they both have great fan bases that are engaged. But it was a bit of a David and Goliath type thing that that garnered interest.

“And it was like, if Eddie, if Eddie Hall catches him, Tommy’s in trouble.
