WBC heavyweight champion Tyson Fury made it very clear that he would retire from boxing after his victory over fellow British boxer Dillian Whyte, knocking him out in the sixth round at Wembley stadium in front of 94,000 fans.
But it seems there are many conspirators who feel that Fury has not actually retired, but is waiting for a potential match with either Anthony Joshua or Oleksandr Usyk as both of them will face off in a rematch set to take place in Saudi Arabia on August 20.

Although it is confirmed that Joshua and Usyk will face each other in Saudi Arabia, ‘The Gypsy King’ doesn’t seem to be too keen on coming back from retirement to face either of the two.

Although Fury has stated many times that he has retired from boxing for good, many people believe that ‘The Gypsy King’ will likely make a return to boxing. Moreover, he is also yet to vacate his WBC heavyweight title, adding to the doubts.
He is also only 33-years-old and is still not past his prime, furthermore, he is also not the undisputed champion and holds only the WBC heavyweight champion title. Usyk currently holds the other three belts and will defend it against Joshua in August. Fury is currently one of the best boxers in the world, which makes it hard for fans and analysts to accept that he would retire right now. But as of now, Fury is retired, and by the looks of it, he is not set to make a return anytime soon.
