Post this fight, ‘The Gypsy King’ also spoke about signing off from the sport many times. But, he’s also given an honest take on fighting his two most potent opponents, Anthony Joshua and Oleksandr Usyk.

However, Fury recently gave a staggering take on his boxing future. In conversation with MTK Global, he said, “I’m not here to talk about me or even think about boxing this side of Christmas. I’ve had a fantastic career and, if I never box again, I’ll be happy. Whatever the future holds is a mystery – we don’t know yet.” (h/t Michael Benson)

However, his success was short-lived as Fury struck him with a mammoth right hand in round 11.
