WBC: Why Tyson Fury Made Dramatic U-turn On Retirement

Barely two months after the shocking announcement of his retirement, British heavyweight boxing champion, Tyson Fury has made a dramatic U-turn on his decision to hang up the gloves.

The two-time heavyweight champion has revealed he is ‘100 percent going to fight again,’ if the price is right.

The 33-year-old make the resolve to retire his gloves after knocking out Dillian Whyte in front of a record Wembley crowd in April.

Fury is expected to face the winner of Oleksandr Usyk’s clash with Anthony Joshua and says he would only fight if the money is right.

The highly-decorated boxer also announced he is competing in an exhibition bout against Japanese MMA star Mikuru Asakura

While speaking to Queensberry Promotions, the Gypsy King said;

‘We have some very exciting news coming. I think the world has been waiting for a plan of action.

Last week we had a nice Italian down in London and a long conversation about lots of stuff.

I will be back in the ring 100 percent, just like in the movie when Jerry Maguire shouted ‘Show Me The Money!’.

If anyone can show me the money then it’s Frank Warren, I call him the Magic Man and we are going to make some big, big things happen.’

In a report last week by Sportsmail, it was revealed Fury is in negotiations to fight the winner of Anthony Joshua vs Oleksandr Usyk in Saudi Arabia in December for the undisputed world heavyweight title.

He continued;

‘What I would say to the people who want this fight to happen is: you better have a big cheque book.

Because to bring the big GK out of retirement to redeem this country – yet again – it’s going to cost.

I am a prize fighter and I do fight for prizes but it is going to cost if you want me to do a mission on this middleweight and show what a real heavyweight does to them.

And that will be expensive, they will need deep pockets and then we can talk.

But NOT before the Usyk vs Joshua fight happens first, because it is pointless before.’
