Tyson Fury in retirement U-turn
Tyson Fury (32-0-1, 23KO) offered up the strongest hint yet that his fighting days are not behind him when he took the hotseat for a digital get-together with his promoter Frank Warren and host Dev Sahni for the latest UniBet Lowdown episode today – June 14.
The world's No.1 heavyweight floated the idea of retirement before and after his crowning glory at Wembley Stadium where he knocked out the Interim champion Dillian Whyte to retain his WBC world championship in front of 94,000 adoring fans.
But it seems the 'Gypsy King' might not be done just yet and, in a wide ranging interview for the Queensberry YouTube channel, the Gypsy King reveals that himself and Frank Warren are formulating plans for another memorable night or two in the months to come.
"We're talking about various scenarios," said the Hall of Fame fight maker. "Something will come out of it. We could announce fairly soon.
"Frank, show me the money," added 33-year-old Tyson. "The Magic Man will show me the money and we will make something big, big, big happen."
