After stepping away from boxing for nine months to take part in a reality television programme, Fury returned to the ring on 21 December 2019, scoring a first-round technical knockout (TKO) victory over Przemyslaw Binienda (2–26) at the Copper Box Arena in London.[10] The fight was televised live on BT Sport.[11]

On 13 November 2020, Tommy Fury recorded his fourth straight win, against Genadij Krajevskij (0–12).
