BodySnatcher is said to be annoyed at a potential 80-20 percent purse split in favor of the champion.

Warren refused to speak to potential opponents and remained silent on the location of Fury’s next fight.

He told IFL TV: “Tyson wants the fight to happen by the end of March. As a team we are looking at other situations as well.

“Whatever happens, he will fight on March 26, that is the purpose.

“I wouldn’t say where it is.

“We have a date here but it could be somewhere else. The truth of the matter is, he wants to fight then.”

Fury looks forward to fighting at Old Trafford to secure his ‘Hero Homecoming’.

He added: “Fighting at Old Trafford has always been my dream.”

There has also been talk of Fury Fighting White in Cardiff for the full British showdown.

Alternatively, Fury could fight Andy Ruiz Jr. in the USA.

The heavyweight world champion hasn’t fought in the UK since his bout with Francesco Pianetta in 2018, having fought Deontay Wilder twice in Las Vegas and once in Los Angeles.

Fury has waged a crossover fight against UFC Champion Francis Nganou – but with a twist.

The WBC heavyweight boxing champion shared a poster of himself and Ngannou tagging UFC president Dana White in the post.

He captioned it: “Who wants to see me fight this beast boxing rules @ufc gloves?”

It comes after a feud between Fury and UFC heavyweight Ngannou, who has previously talked about a boxing switch.
