British boxer, Tyson Fury, WBC and Lineal Heavyweight champion, has suggested that he could look to retire from boxing having completed his trilogy victory over American boxer, Deontay Wilder.

A boxing match against Dillian Whyte looks the likely next step for Tyson Fury but there have been the suggestions that the boxer could choose to walk away from the ring completely.

His next opponent Dillian Whyte himself admitted he wouldn’t be surprised to see his rival take that step, and even Tyson Fury himself hasn’t entirely ruled out an early retirement.

“I don’t know what’s going to happen,” Fury told The Telegraph.

“I’ve got one fight left on my contract with Top Rank and ESPN and we’ll see what that is.

“But I’m not thinking about boxing right now. I don’t know how many fights I’ve got left, I don’t know if I need to fight anymore. I don’t know what the future holds.

“I am motivated to get up in the morning, do a little bit of training and enjoy my day. I don’t have any goals in boxing; I have done everything and won everything, the only one to do it in my era.

“I will always have been the WBC, WBA, WBO, IBF, Ring magazine champion, that will not evaporate in history, but once it is done, it is done – and you cannot get it back.

“Once you are done, it doesn’t matter how many belts you have, who you beat, what your record is. You are just another bare bum in the shower and I have always had that opinion,” he added.
