Tyson Fury has revealed that he wants his highly-anticipated rematch with Deontay Wilder to be staged at Old Trafford next summer.
The self-proclaimed 'Gypsy King' sat in the stands to support his hometown club, Manchester United, on Wednesday night as they drew 2-2 in a lively clash with Arsenal.
It comes just days after the 30-year-old drew with Wilder in Los Angeles as he bid to win the WBC heavyweight title from the American.
As he was interviewed at half-time wearing a classic United red, white and black scalf, Fury said that he's already told promoter Frank Warren that he wants to fight Wilder inside the Theatre of Dreams – an option that is currently being explored.
When asked about the controversial draw at the Staples Center, Fury said: 'I'm not going to go on about it forever, life goes on. I got robbed blind in America and the world knows it. But I'm going to go on – continue to the next fight.'
Fury's appearance at the game prompted further questions over where the next fight would be with United's famous ground a perfect setting for the rematch.
Warren previously suggested the Emirates as a possible venue as well as Wembley but there's only one place that tops the list for Fury.
'I said to Frank Warren, he said "Arsenal" but I said "No, let's have it at Old Trafford!" Hopefully we can have it here in the summer.'
The Red Devils came from behind twice to earn a draw against Unai Emery's side on Wednesday night – a result that wouldn't have pleased Fury.
'I don’t like draws – I only like wins,' Fury laughed.

Unfortunately rematch will be in Vegas for the big money. the Americans loved his boxing and his personality so they will pay big to get him back

Have to admit I had no time for him previous and during his ban from boxing but he slowly grew on me in the lead up to the Wilder fight. And he won the world over with that display! He'll be a great champion again

saw the fight and the man for the first time. he doesn't have a boxer's physique but he got legs and fast hands and Moxy sometimes that's all you need. out boxed the American hands down sent him to school but he didn't wanna learn. he crossed swords with the American and got knocked out a Resurrection took place somehow some way this man of faith was risen from the dead, again in this we have a lot in common Jesus saves Jesus saves thank God Almighty sad to see that he is a United fan there is no accounting for taste maybe United should hire him for manager. why?! because they were dead to rights! no sir the spirit of draw wasn't there the spirit of Resurrection was. even for red devils

Hope they can do it in the UK, I'd be happy to pay the money to come and watch it. Two great champions who gave us a heavyweight classic and I reckon they'd give us another one
