John Fury looked back at Tyson Fury v Deontay Wilder 3 and assessed what the future holds for his son. John Fury is the one that got all his children, including Tyson Fury, into boxing. Fury’s father was also his trainer till 2011.

As he sat down in the lush British wilderness on a pretty gloomy day, Fury spoke about what he thinks his son should do next. “He has a good hard-earned rest now and what he wants to do is up to him. I said retire, you’ve done enough, he’s won everything, he’s got no more to prove.”

“He’s got millions and millions of pounds in the bank. He is secure for life. You know, there’s more to life than getting your brains rattled, isn’t there? To please the public. He’s his own man, he’ll do what he’s gonna do. But for me, I’d like him to call it a draw now,” Fury said to BT Sport.

He’s proud of everything his son has done, but he feels it is time for him to hang up the gloves.

‘The Gypsy King’ has a long-standing history with mental illness. Fury went through nasty bouts of depression and substance abuse and the one thing he says keeps him sane is boxing and training.

This is probably why Fury would not want to give up training and boxing.
