Three days after his announcement that he wanted to get back into the boxing ring, Tyson Fury has once again declared his retirement.
The heavyweight world champion of the WBC association (World Boxing Council) posted a statement on Twitter.
"A huge thank you to everyone who has contributed to my career over the years & after long hard discussions I have finally decided to retire & on my 34th birthday I say bon voyage," Fury tweeted.
Fury only announced on Tuesday that he still wanted to fight "because I can be the first heavyweight champion in history to have two trilogies".
With his compatriot Derek Chisora, the Briton already had an opponent in mind.
Fury had already won against Chisora in 2011 and 2014.
Fury had his first trilogy with the American Deontay Wilder (2018, 2020 and 2021).
Fury's statements are not always valid
Fury had his last fight so far on April 23 at Wembley Stadium against his compatriot Dillian Whyte.
He won by technical knockout in the sixth round.
Fury then declared the end of his career for the first time that he had “achieved everything I wanted to achieve”.
Fury is unbeaten in his career, in 32 fights there was only one draw against Wilder 2018.
Fury had already announced a lot in previous years that no longer applied a little later.
In the boxing scene, Fury's statements are treated with extreme caution.
It remains to be seen whether his career is really over.
