“I’ve had some really good options, so let’s see what happens. I think it’s going to be an exciting one.
“There’s many more exciting ones for Tommy as well if he hangs about. We’ve got a lot of cool plans, so let me see what happens.
“But it’s always exciting to have him on and Big John doing his thing.
“He was a little more quiet last time, but we love Big John and him being expressive with his views.”

Fury, 27, defeated KSI, 33, in October 2023 and the Misfits co-founder is yet to fight since.
So it leaves Fury as one of the leading names in the promotion despite his ongoing feud with KSI.
The 2019 Love Island star became the first man to beat Paul, 29, in 2023 and the two are now in talks for a rematch.
But Fury’s dad and manager John prefers a 2027 date so his son can first return in December.
And Taylor has not ruled out Misfits representing Fury in the rematch with Paul.
He said: “Anything’s possible.
“If we bring something to the table then it might make sense; if we’re not bringing anything to the table, then why wouldn’t they do it on their own?
“It’s just got to make sense for everyone. But I’ve got some ideas, so let’s see what happens.”
