Fury is set to retire in January 2025, following two defeats to Oleksandr Usyk.
Usyk vacated the WBO belt in November, which has now been awarded to Fabio Wardley.
Fury has expressed interest in fighting Wardley this year.
However, the returning Daniel Dubois has also thrown his hat in the ring to challenge Wardley—a fight that Warren believes may not happen next but could be monumental.
He stated to talkSPORT : “We will be announcing a couple more shows in the coming weeks.
“One will feature Daniel Dubois, and another will showcase Fabio Wardley. We are bringing some fantastic shows to the fans.”
“I’m not sure if Dubois vs. Wardley will occur. I love that matchup between two powerful punchers; it would be thrilling.”
“We are currently in discussions with both parties, and that fight hasn’t been finalized yet.”
Wardley, 31, dramatically defeated Joseph Parker, 33, in the 11th round of their WBO interim title fight in October at the O2 Arena.
He celebrated his elevation to the full title after Usyk, 38, announced he would be vacating the belt.
The Ukrainian had previously become a two-time undisputed heavyweight champion after defeating Dubois, 28, in round five of their rematch in July.
Dubois has yet to make a comeback since that defeat, but if the Londoner returns to winning form...
Wardley commented on Sky Sports : “It would be an incredible matchup. Seeing us two pitted against each other would be fantastic.”
“He hasn’t secured a win yet, coming off that loss, so it might be beneficial for him to secure a victory before we can heat things up later this year.”
