And I meant it,\u201d <a href=\"https:\/\/www.espn.com\/boxing\/story\/_\/id\/33785619\/will-tyson-fury-follow-boxing-most-common-tradition-unretirement\">said<\/a> Fury. \u201cWe had a war. It was a great trilogy. And I meant that. But I got offered to fight at Wembley at home, and I believe that I deserved \u2014 that I owed it to the fans, I owed it to every person in the United Kingdom to come here and fight at Wembley.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cNow it\u2019s all done,\u201d Fury continued. \u201cAnd I have to be a man of my word. And I think this is it. This might be the final curtain for \u2018the Gypsy King.\u2019 And what a way to go out!\u201d<\/p>\n<p><span>Frank Warren, Fury\u2019s promoter, said that he would support any decision that Fury makes.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>\u201cIf it was going to be the last fight, it\u2019ll be the last fight. That\u2019s his decision, he\u2019s the guy getting in the ring. And if it is his last fight he has gone out on such a high,\u201d Warren <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.cbs58.com\/news\/tyson-fury-vows-to-retire-from-professional-boxing-and-calls-himself-the-best-heavyweight-theres-ever-been\"><span>said<\/span><\/a><span> on Saturday.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>Fury has done it all in his illustrious career, holding a ridiculous 32-0-1 record, and the title of the best boxer of a generation.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>\u201cI\u2019ve done everything asked of me,\u201d Fury <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.espn.com\/boxing\/story\/_\/id\/33794099\/tyson-fury-retains-heavyweight-title-6th-round-tko-dillian-whyte\"><span>said<\/span><\/a><span> at the post-fight news conference. \u201cI\u2019ve done more promotion, more interviews than anybody, and I go above and beyond with all these shows I fight on, so I definitely deserve to be able to make a choice where I think it benefits me most.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>\u201cI\u2019ve given 20 years to boxing, amateur and professional,\u201d he continued. \u201cI\u2019ve had me brains knocked out. I\u2019ve been put down, I\u2019ve been rocked, I\u2019ve been cut. I\u2019ve had tough fights, I\u2019ve had draws, I\u2019ve had wins. I\u2019ve boxed all over the world. How much blood can you get out of a stone?\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>If Saturday was, in fact, the last we see of Fury in the ring, he\u2019ll go down as one of the greatest boxers of all time, as well as a legendary showman. But that doesn\u2019t mean that everyone believes Fury when he says he\u2019s planning on hanging up his gloves.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>Former light-welterweight champion Ricky Hatton, who is scheduled to return to the ring in a July exhibition fight, has his doubts.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>\u201cIt\u2019s very, very hard to believe a single word that comes out of his mouth,\u201d Hatton said on BBC Breakfast. \u201cAnd I say that with love. What Tyson has done in the ring and out of the ring \u2014 with mental health and the problems that he has had \u2014 I think he\u2019s done himself proud.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>\u201cHe has nothing more to prove but \u2026 like I have with the exhibition bout on July 7, you have to keep setting yourself goals,\u201d Hatton continued.<\/span><\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"500\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">\u201cIt\u2019s hard to believe a single word that comes out of his mouth\u201d <\/p>\n<p>Ricky Hatton on whether boxing world champion Tyson Fury could retire now \u2935\ufe0f\ud83e\udd4a<a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/BBCBreakfast?src=hash&#038;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">#BBCBreakfast<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/KXzaxbdsNk\">https:\/\/t.co\/KXzaxbdsNk<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/KoIKStkUgk\">pic.twitter.com\/KoIKStkUgk<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u2014 BBC Breakfast (@BBCBreakfast) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/BBCBreakfast\/status\/1518850315893846016?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">April 26, 2022<\/a><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p><span>Paris Fury \u2014 Tyson\u2019s wife and the reason he\u2019s given for his retirement \u2014 said that while she would like him to call it quits, a unification fight between the winner of the Oleksandr Usyk\u2019s versus Anthony Joshua rematch could get him into the ring one more time.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>\u201cI would like him to come out now. He has nothing more to prove,\u201d Paris told BT Sport on Saturday. \u201cIf he had anything left to do, I would say \u2018Yeah Tyson, you do it\u2019. But he has nothing to prove.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>\u201cSo unless he really wants to box on, and if he\u2019s just doing it for whatever money, fame, he doesn\u2019t need that,\u201d she continued. \u201cHe\u2019s the most famous man on the planet tonight. For Tyson to keep boxing, it just seems for one reason and I know in my heart, I think the only reason that Tyson will come back is for the unification fight,\u201d Paris added.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><i>Joe Morgan is the Sports Reporter for The Daily Wire.
