Bob Arum Gives Critical Update On Tyson Fury’s Career

Tyson Fury, the British boxing sensation, has declared his retirement following his thrilling match with Dillian Whyte. The 33-year-old had promised his wife that this would be his final bout before retiring. Many of his fans were dismayed by his choice to retire. But, according to his boxing promoter, Bob Arum, ‘The Gypsy King’ may return to the ring.

‘Top Rank‘ boss, Arum, recently expressed his thoughts on Fury’s return to boxing. While talking to FightHype.com, the promoted stated, “I think Tyson Fury is gonna wait to see how the Anthony Joshua fight comes out with Oleksandr Usyk, then make a determination whether he wants to continue. Other than fighting the winner of Usyk vs Joshua, there’s nothing really of interest to Fury.”
