The stage is set for the most entertaining and technically sound heavyweights of all time. Tyson Fury, to come out of retirement. Even though the champ hung up his gloves in April this year and left the ring with a perfect record, he’s once again come out of retirement after the Joshua vs. Usyk 2. And it looks like he’s itching to fight any of the two at the earliest.

The former light welterweight and welterweight champion Tim Bradley entertained the question of beating ‘The Gypsy King’ with laughter. He did not believe there was any dude born yet to defeat the WBC heavyweight champion. However, he insisted on one thing that could change Fury’s fate, which is to believe in superstition.

“A prayer and a wish. Come on prayer wish hope, you got to knock Tyson Fury out that’s the only way you beat Tyson Fury. Tyson Fury is too clever man too smart in and outside the ring bro so I don’t see. I really don’t see anybody beating them not today. The dude ain’t even born yet. The dude that’s gonna be Tyson Fury ain’t even born, so I don’t see Usyk beating him. I don’t see Joshua beating him. I don’t see anybody in the heavyweight division touching Tyson Fury, “ Bradley said.

What is the current situation of the heavyweight division?

As of now, ‘The Gypsy King’ is the new hotspot in the division. He is eager to face anybody, but his eyes are on his Brit rival, the former unified heavyweight champion Anthony Joshua. The latter is coming out of two successive losses, so Fury has offered him an opportunity to revive his career.

This would do two things. First, it will give British fans the most hyped contest of the past few years. Second, it would define many things about Joshua’s career. On the other hand, the unified reigning champ Usyk also wants to face Fury. He wanted an undisputed title clash with the 33-year-old.
