Tyson Fury Teases Major Announcement After Retirement Reversal

Tyson Fury has hinted strongly at a coming announcement following his recent decision to step back from retirement.

The `Gypsy King` had announced his retirement for the fifth time in January, shortly after suffering his second consecutive loss to Oleksandr Usyk.

However, he reversed this decision emphatically last month, pushing for a third fight against the skilled southpaw boxer.

The 36-year-old Fury has repeatedly suggested he will return to boxing and seems to have increased his training regimen.

The fighter from Wythenshawe has hinted that a significant announcement is coming soon.

In a video shared on his Instagram story featuring his father John, the former two-time heavyweight champion stated, “Business meeting today, dad.

“En-route. Incoming, incoming.”

A much-anticipated domestic showdown with fellow former heavyweight champion Anthony Joshua could happen if Fury chooses to fight again.

This massive `Battle of Britain` seemed certain after Fury`s second defeat by decision to pound-for-pound top fighter Usyk last December.

But Fury appeared to end hopes for this fight by announcing his fifth retirement, even making a strange reference to highway robber Dick Turpin.

Despite this, the biggest potential fight in British boxing history is back in consideration following Fury`s latest change of heart on retirement.

The fight won`t happen immediately, though, as AJ recently had elbow surgery.

His long-time promoter, Eddie Hearn, expects Joshua to be ready to fight no sooner than September.

In an exclusive chat, Hearn commented on Fury`s recent social media posts: “Tyson Fury is a big tease.

“Every day, I open up Instagram… he`s got his wraps on saying he`s done 12 rounds.

“He looks super fit, Tyson Fury. He looks like he`s ready to go now, which is encouraging.

“But, obviously, probably the delay that AJ`s got is a blessing, to be honest with you.

“One, you`ve got Usyk against Dubois coming up, so that gives you a little bit of time.

“And number two, you`ve got Tyson Fury. Who could potentially come back to the ring.

“So it`s gonna be interesting to see what plays out.”
