TYSON FURY will fight either Anthony Joshua or Oleksandr Usyk “down the line” – along with UFC champion Francis Ngannou too.
Fury has maintained he is happily retired but will lace up the gloves once more for the right price.
It comes with Joshua, 32, expected to rematch Usyk, 35, on August 20 in Saudi Arabia.
And Fury, 33, announced he would fight the winner in an undisputed title decider but only for £500MILLION.
His US promoter Bob Arum joked that maybe he meant meant pesos – which still equals £20m – while opening the door to a comeback.
Arum said: “He didn’t say dollars. Maybe he was talking pesos.
“That’s up to Tyson. He’s a very intelligent guy and has a lot of opportunities outside of boxing. For a guy like Tyson, you take it one step at a time.
“So I’m optimistic without discussing it with him, sometime down the road, he’ll fight the winner of Joshua-Usyk, which I hope is Usyk, and he’ll fight Ngannou and maybe call it a day.”
Fury has been linked with a crossover fight against UFC star Ngannou, 35, who is currently sidelined with a knee injury.
But his contract currently prohibits him from a move to boxing unless given special permission.

Ngannou’s deal is set to expire at the end of the year, meaning he could let it run down before facing Fury.
The Gypsy King has claimed his next fight will NOT be against AJ or Usyk, fuelling speculation of a bout against Ngannou.
Arum said: “The MMA guy is still recovering from an injury, but I would love to do that fight.
“Depending on Ngannou’s contract with the UFC, we need to do it with or without the UFC, but that would be a huge, huge event.
“Sure, I’m interested. Who wouldn’t be? Ngannou is the heavyweight champion of the UFC, and Tyson Fury, I think it would be a huge, huge event.”
