But he ruled out ever facing former sparring partner Agit Kabayel or close friend Joseph Parker - for any amount of money.
He said at a Goldstar Promotions event at BoxPark: "They are my two brothers.
"They are both lovely guys, and they are both future world heavyweight champions.
"Agit Kabayel and Joseph Parker... he [Parker] has been a champion before, so he knows what it is about.
"I wish them all the very best in the world and I won't fight either man for any amount of money because some things ain't worth fighting for."
Kabayel was once lined up to fight Fury in 2020 but the bout fell through.
Although the two would have shared the ring as sparring partners - forming a friendship in the years since.
Kabayel, 32, admitted to struggling to find fights until Fury began to publicly push him.

Since then, the German has improved to 26-0 with big wins over Frank Sánchez and Zhilei Zhang to become interim WBC champ.
Parker, 33, meanwhile beat Fury's cousin Hughie in 2017 to win the WBO belt and the two have been inseparable ever since.
The New Zealander has even lived with the Fury family and spent Christmas together in 2022.
And Parker - mandated to fight Oleksandr Usyk next - also talked down a bout with Fury.
He said: "How can you fight a brother? Unless it's like we put on some sort of WWE type. It's hard to say, he's been very good to me."
Fury, 36, retired after two defeats to Usyk, 38, but revealed he will return in 2026 once the filming of his newest reality show finishes.
He said: "That's what I f***ing miss. I miss it!
"I do miss it, every single day I wake up in the morning and miss it. I've been away seven months, missed it everyday. I'm open to offers at the moment.
"I'm not going to be doing any comebacks this year, that's for sure. I'm busy as you can see I've got Netflix here.
"I'm filming At Home With The Furys season two. Come on! And then next year the big GK is going to make a f***ing comeback.
"The takeover! I'm gonna be 37 in about three weeks so I'm going to be the oldest swinger with all these young boys coming up it's going to be difficult.

The German giants ended up running away with a 4-0 victory, but the most lasting effect of the game may be a sore couple of days to come for Kane. It took Spurs' Argentinian centre-back just six minutes to catch Kane the first time, charging through the back of the Tottenham legend as he received the ball. A 12th-minute goal for the England captain did nothing to calm the fury of his ex-teammate. The 27-year-old earned a yellow card in the 41st minute of the friendly for a cynical pull on Kane as he attempted to launch a counter attack.

Kingsley Coman gave Bayern a 2-0 lead in the 61st minute, before late goals from teenagers Lennart Karl and Jonah Kusi-Asare sealed a huge margin of victory for the German Champions.

Transfer race for £80m Chelsea star heats up with three clubs to rival Newcastle
Newcastle United could be set for yet another transfer blow after three European giants joined the race to sign Chelsea striker Nicolas Jackson. The Magpies – who have missed out on a number of targets in the current window – are interested in a deal to sign Jackson, valued at around £80m. Eddie Howe's side view Jackson as a potential replacement for Alexander Isak, who has been strongly linked with a move to Liverpool this summer. Newcastle are keen on Jackson after missing out on RB Leipzig striker Benjamin Sesko, who is set to join Manchester United after a fight for his signature. In The Mixer: Exclusive analysis, FPL tips and transfer talk sent straight to your inbox every week – click here and sign up before Friday to make sure you don't miss the first edition. But Newcastle now face an uphill battle to sign Jackson too – after Sky Sports reported that AC Milan, Juventus and Bayern Munich have now all explored the conditions of a deal. Chelsea are open to selling Jackson ahead of the new season after recruiting Liam Delap and Joao Pedro in the summer transfer window. Jackson has conjured up 30 goals and 12 assists across 81 games for the Blues since joining the club in a £32m deal from Villarreal in 2023. According to football transfer expert Florian Plettenberg, German champions Bayern have made an official enquiry about Jackson. Italian club Juventus, though, are likely to have to sell Dusan Vlahovic in order to proceed in talks for Chelsea's 24-year-old Senegal international. AC Milan, meanwhile, reportedly want to sign Jackson on an initial loan deal with an option to sign him permanently. Quizzed about Jackson's future at Stamford Bridge, Chelsea head coach Enzo Maresca said: 'When the transfer window is open – unfortunately, or fortunately – anything can happen. More Trending 'This involves Nico's situation. At the moment wehave had two strikers arrive – Joao and Liam – so we'll see what happens.' Newcastle have three alternative options if they can't sign Jackson – with the club looking at Aston Villa's Ollie Watkins and Brentford's Yoane Wissa. The third striker Newcastle are keeping tabs on is RB Leipzig's Lois Openda. The Magpies are currently gearing up for the new Premier League season and face a trip to Villa Park in their opening match on August 16.
