CommentsAfter 15 months away from the ring, Tyson Fury will make his return to heavyweight boxing on Saturday against Arslanbek Makhmudov in London.

The two-time heavyweight world champion will face the Russian at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium.

Fury, 37, will be aiming to bounce back from consecutive defeats by Oleksandr Usyk, which prompted him to briefly retire from the sport.

In Makhmudov, he faces a 6ft 6in opponent who boasts 19 stoppages in 21 wins, though he has also been beaten twice.

With a potential long-awaited fight against Anthony Joshua in the works - or another shot at a world title - can Fury make a winning return and force his way back into heavyweight contention?

Or will 36-year-old Makhmudov cause an almighty upset in north London?

BBC Sport spoke to figures from the boxing world to get their predictions for Saturday's fight.

What information do we collect from this quiz?Lennox Lewis - heavyweight legend"It's going to be a Tyson Fury fight where he goes out there and does what he wants. He's elusive, moves well, he can throw great combinations plus he's quick. I think he does it in round seven or eight."

"Fury is unpredictable. He can be either on fire against the likes of Deontay Wilder or a bit lacklustre and does what he needs to do against the likes of Otto Wallin. But I still expect him to win, regardless of which Fury turns up."

Six big questions for Fury's fifth return from retirement

Jolly Fury takes aim at heavyweight rivals & even Spurs

Published1 day agoConor Benn - welterweight"There isn't any advice you can give him. He knows what he is doing. The big man knows what he is doing. He has been boxing before I was born. So, he has taken on a challenge, and a tough test. It isn't going to be a pushover, but ultimately, I back Fury to win."

"Tyson does take shots. He will want to get through the rounds, winning them but not taking any damage. Not get hit by Makhmudov, because as you get older your punch resistance doesn't get better."

"Tyson Fury, easy. A cheeky little points victory."

'I was sick of the boxing game and I needed time away' - Tyson Fury on returning to the ring

"Makhmudov is tailor made for Fury. He's tall but he's straight up and down. He's a decent puncher but not ferocious. You can switch him off with a bit of head movement.

"Fury isn't the best body puncher but works the body well and Makhmudov has been stopped to the body before. I don't think it will be early, but I think Fury will break him apart and Makhmudov is vulnerable enough that Fury should be able to take him out late on."

"I am going for Fury on points. It may not be particularly easy but I do think he wins by a pretty clean and comfortable decision."
