Currently, the current WBC heavyweight world champion Tyson Fury is preparing for his own WBC World Champion defense against Dillian Whyte. The match will be held on April 23, 2022 local time at Wembley Stadium in London.
Although it was imperative for this game, and it was very hard to train. But Tyson Fury has repeatedly claimed in interviews that this will be the last of his career.
Tyson Fury has announced his retirement several times in the past, but because his career is on the rise, not many people take his words seriously. Many people thought Tyson Fury was just making a publicity warm-up for his first return to England since 2018. Moreover, many predict that after Tyson Fury defeated Dillian White, he would almost certainly challenge another heavyweight world champion, Olek Sandel Usik, in a very high profile (considering that Oleksander Usik had already returned to fight, the opponent could also become Anthony Joshua).
However, in an interview with BT Sports TV today (March 8, 2022), Tyson Fury once again stressed that he would announce his retirement after the match with Delian White. Pressed by reporters, Tyson Fury also explained his decision, and Tyson Fury said that he had achieved all the goals of his career, so the chances of continuing to play after the April game were low.
Tyson Fury told BT Sports TV: "The only thing I can get if I keep fighting is money. After playing against Dillion White, I was pretty much making $100 million. I think that's enough, I don't deserve more wealth. ”
"I know Mike Tyson once had a fortune of $500 million and Evand Hollyfield once had a fortune of $400 million, but I don't like their lavish lifestyle. I love my current life, I live in Mokham, Lancashire, England. The cost of living here is low, the prices are cheap, and I don't have other bad habits like gambling. So, in theory, I'll never be able to spend the money I earn. Tyson Fury added.
"You ask me why I don't keep fighting? Why should I keep playing at the risk of constant injury? Did you, like other boxers, play more games in the later years of your career just to keep losing? How many more pounds will that help me earn? I have a wife and six kids and I probably don't want my brain to be damaged in constant competition! I want to officially retire as an undefeated boxer, and this ending is perfect. Tyson Fury told reporters.
When asked about his plans for retirement, Tyson Fury told reporters: "I have started talking with Netflix and am ready to make a documentary. Then there's the possibility of going to Hollywood to make a movie. After that, I want to be a good husband, a good son, a good father. In short, I want to live a happy life, and believe me, it is not an easy task. ”
Tyson Fury is 33 years old, and although he is not particularly old, he has won all the honors that a professional boxing heavyweight boxer can get. It includes the titles of World Boxing Champion (WBA, WBO, IBF, WBC) of the four major organizations, the title of Direct Boxing Champion, and the title of World Boxing Champion of Boxing Ring Magazine. Without thinking about money, Tyson Fury really doesn't need to continue to prove himself in the boxing ring.
