But beyond those plans, Fury already knows where he’d love to box next.
Speaking to SunSport, the former heavyweight champion admitted a fight on the Isle of Man is on his agenda.
The island has long been a special place for Fury and his family.
The Gypsy King relocated to an £8 million mansion on the Isle of Man in 2025, following a series of alarming security incidents at their previous home in Morecambe.
Asked whether he would consider fighting in Thailand again, Fury instead named a very different destination.
He said: “I don’t know yet. I definitely want to do a fight in the Isle of Man next.”
Fury believes the island is capable of staging a major event if the right opportunity presents itself.
And he is confident organisers could move quickly if a suitable opponent becomes available.

He added: “If we can set up a big fight out here, within three or four weeks, we’ll do it in three or four days in the Isle of Man on top of us.
“Don’t forget it’s 18 hours away [Isle of Man] from where we are [Pattaya].”
The Gypsy King has boxed across the globe during one of the most successful heavyweight careers of the modern era.
Now Fury wants to give fans closer to home the chance to see him in action.
Before any return to the Isle of Man can happen, however, Fury must first overcome veteran Pole Wach in Thailand.
Should he come through unscathed, attention will quickly turn to Anthony Joshua’s clash with Kristian Prenga in Saudi Arabia on Saturday.
Victory for both men would finally pave the way for one of the biggest all-British fights in history later this year.
But even with that blockbuster looming, Fury already has one eye on an even more personal occasion.
A return to the Isle of Man.
And, if the Gypsy King gets his way, it could be one of the most emotional nights of his remarkable career.
