Drew McIntyre claims boxing star Tyson Fury is ‘stalking’ him for a match in WWE

Drew McIntyre says Tyson Fury is ‘stalking’ him for a match in WWE.

The WBC heavyweight boxing champion has called out McIntyre several times since his debut in WWE.

Fury’s one and only match with Vince McMahon's company came in a winning effort against Braun Strowman at Crown Jewel in October 2019.

And McIntyre insists he wants to bring a big WWE pay-per-view back to UK… with him and Fury headlining it.

The former WWE champion told : "Tyson Fury is stalking me. It’s the most bizarre sentence.

“I’d wake up every day and I’ve got another message on social media from Tyson Fury. Maybe I should answer him.

"The UK deserves a significant pay-per-view. It’s such an incredible fanbase, a huge audience, they’re so passionate.

"There hasn’t been a huge show since 1992 when we sold out Wembley Stadium with over 80,000 people.

“I want to make that happen again, be that at Hampden or Ibrox or wherever it may be. Maybe Wembley again.

"But if it takes myself and Tyson Fury to draw some outside eyeballs besides just the WWE fans – the new WWE fans, we’ll call them – I want to make it happen."

Fury revealed he was supposed to fight McIntyre at a WWE UK pay-per-view before the coronavirus pandemic put those plans on hold.

Last month, he said: “I was supposed to go to SummerSlam last year and I was supposed to go to WrestleMania last year and then I was also supposed to fight Drew McIntyre in a PPV event in the UK.

“But none of that happened thanks to COVID.

“So COVID’s cost me SummerSlam, Royal Rumble, PPV with Drew McIntyre, the [Deontay] Wilder rematch, and the [Anthony] Joshua fight.”

There looks set to be a wait for a match between McIntyre and Fury with the latter confirming he will fight Anthony Joshua in an all-British undisputed heavyweight showdown in July.
