TYSON FURY has his sights set on finding a new opponent after destroying Tom Schwarz in two rounds in Las Vegas.

The Brit comfortably delivered Schwarz's first professional defeat before revealing plans to fight again this Autumn in New York.

With the likes of Deontay Wilder and Anthony Joshua set for rematches against Luiz Ortiz and Andy Ruiz Jr, Fury will have to settle for a less prestigious bout.

He has already explained the fight will be more of a tune-up for his second showdown against Wilder next year.

Here, SunSport runs the rule over five possible opponents Fury could take on next...



Kubrat Pulev

BULGARIAN is favourite to step into the ring with Fury next due to the stipulations surrounding Andy Ruiz Jr's title defences.

Pulev is No1 contender for the IBF belt, meaning Ruiz Jr could be ordered to fight him.

But if the Mexican goes ahead with his rematch against Joshua, he may have to vacate the belt.

That could set up a title fight with Fury an obvious choice to compete.

Pulev, 38, is banned from fighting until he takes sexual harassment prevention classes after forcefully kissing a female reporter on the lips.

Manuel Charr

GERMAN holds the lesser WBA regular world title belt and so would give Fury the chance of winning a belt before facing Wilder.

As any fight will be tailored towards his rematch with the WBC king, Fury will want to make sure his opponent fits the bill.

Charr, at 6ft 3in, is not far off Wilder's 6ft 6in frame and so will be good practise.

With a 31-4 record, he has been around the block but would not pose too big a threat to Fury.

Charr has not fought since November 2017 and has failed a drugs test in that time, though was not stripped of his belt.

The WBA ordered him to defend his title against Fres Oquendo but the fight collapsed.



Adam Kownacki

UNBEATEN Pole is fourth in the IBF rankings and fifth in the WBC.

Tickets would be unlikely to sell out for the fight but again, his 6ft 3in height would be good preparation for Wilder.

Kownacki, 30, beat former IBF champ Charles Martin two years after AJ dethroned him of his title in 2016.



Jarrell Miller

BANNED for failing multiple drugs tests before facing Anthony Joshua and forced to give up his world title shot.

But the controversial American is free to fight again as early as October and could be an interesting match-up for Fury.

Outspoken and cocky, Miller would be able to sell tickets having made an impression both in the US and UK.



Dillian Whyte

PERHAPS too big a risk for the Brit to take on his outspoken countryman.

Whyte claimed Fury ought to be "ashamed of himself" for fighting "bum" Schwarz instead of him.

The Body Snatcher has been waiting for his chance on the biggest stage for years and is the No1 contender for both the WBC and WBO belts.

It is unlikely he will get his chance with a fight against Oscar Rivas scheduled for July.
