Tyson Fury made it clear to the world that he would be retiring from boxing after beating Dillian Whyte at the Wembley stadium, knocking him out with an uppercut in the last seconds of the sixth round.

And now he has come under the radar of one of boxing’s most famous and notorious promoters, Don King, who said that he might bring Fury out of retirement.

Don King praises Tyson Fury

King recently stated in an interview with BT Sport that he could get The Gypsy King to rethink his decision saying, “I’m gonna bring Tyson Fury out of retirement”

King then goes on to praise Fury for overcoming his issues with substance abuse and depression in the past and also stated that he might work with Tyson Fury’s cousin Hughie Fury adding, “Tyson Fury is a human being, he ended up getting himself involved in drugs and all the different things there. He had never lost, but he quit because he got himself into trouble with humanistic things, so I always had a great deal of respect for him when he came back. He went straight back to the top again. So, now he says he is retired but maybe afterward he may come out of retirement. But anyway, the Fury boys are good people”

Fury was also quick to react to King as he summed up his thoughts in four words Tweeting,”Get Up there Don”

It seems Fury also has a lot of respect and admiration for the legendary boxing promoter.

Don King’s legacy

King started promoting fights almost 50 years ago and was one of the most infamous promoters of all time. During his career, he has managed some of boxing’s greatest names, including Muhammad Ali, Mike Tyson, Larry Holmes, and Roberto Duran.

But, many fighters did not have a great relationship with him. Especially Tyson, who accused King of robbing him of his payouts during the time he was with him. Now at the age of 90, King has retired from promoting fights but occasionally promotes a fight or two.
