Tyson Fury announces he will RETIRE after Dillian Whyte fight at 33 and has no plans to face Anthony Joshua or Usyk next

TYSON FURY has announced he will retire from boxing after his fight with Dillian Whyte.

He was then expected to take on the winner of Anthony Joshua’s rematch with Oleksandr Usyk.

But Fury has revealed he will step away from the ring to spend time with his wife Paris and six kids abroad.

He said: “This is the final fight of my career, I’m retiring after this.

“$150million in the bank, healthy, young, I’m gonna buy a massive yacht abroad.

“I’m retiring, I’m out, this is my final fight, I’m done.”

The Gypsy King was the first press conference to announce his upcoming clash with Whyte at Wembley today.

But his Brixton ‘Body Snatcher’ opponent failed to show, as their bitter rift over purses continue.

He instead decided to stay at his Portuguese training camp where he is planning the heavyweight champ’s downfall.

Fury’s retirement announcement will not come as a shock to fans, as he has claimed he will hang up his gloves before.

But he now has a large family around him and looks in a better place after his mental health battles.
