"Breaking news. Return of the MAC. May 13th, working on an
opponent, more news to follow," he tweeted on Monday.
The 28-year-old has not fought since beating Ukrainian Wladimir
Klitschko to become world champion in November 2015,
subsequently pulling out of a rematch twice.
He vacated his WBO and WBA belts last year, revealing he was
seeking medical help, after telling Rolling Stone magazine that
he had taken cocaine to help his depression.
Fury's license was "suspended pending further investigation" by
the British Boxing Board of Control.
He was also charged with a rule violation by UK Anti-Doping
after a urine sample from February 2015 showed traces of the
banned stimulant nandrolone. He has denied any wrongdoing.
A provisional UKAD suspension was lifted on appeal but Fury
faces an anti-doping tribunal, though no date has been set.
