Tyson Fury became ‘grumpy and agitated’ after retiring from boxing and admits wife Paris was happy to see him return

TYSON FURY admitted he became grumpy and agitated while retired – leaving wife Paris happy to see him return to boxing.

Fury announced he was hanging up his gloves after knocking out Dillian Whyte in April at Wembley.

But it lasted just a matter of months with the Gypsy King set to fight again on December 3 in a trilogy bout against Derek Chisora.

Fury, 34, said on Good Morning Britain: “I think as a family it was great stuff for ten weeks. Everyone was really happy.

“I was doing all the school runs, dog walks, the rubbish. All that sort of stuff. All the home jobs that need doing.

“But then it just gets like, ‘Well, when’s dad going to go back to work again? Is he just going to stay here and do nothing forever?’

“I think they were glad to get rid of me, to be fair.

“I got a little bit grumpy and a little bit agitated towards the end of my retirement and I thought, do you know what, I’ve got to get back to work.”

Fury’s return proved an unpopular choice amongst some fans, due to one-sided nature of his 2011 and 2014 wins over Chisora, 38.

But he is using the trilogy bout as a way to prepare for a title unification next year against Oleksandr Usyk, 35, with talks to fight ongoing.

Usyk ruled himself out of the clash this year after returning home to Ukraine for the first time since beating Anthony Joshua, 33.

But it has set the scene for the heavyweight division’s first four-belt undisputed decider in 2023.

Usyk’s manager Egis Klimas told SecondsOut: “Everything is done from our side – everything, absolutely.

“So, there’s only one guy who can say, ‘Yes, we’re going [ahead];’ that’s Fury.”

How To

Here are the Basic Skills of Boxing

How to box effectively

Boxing has become a very popular sport. It is a fight between two opponents. Each country has its own rules. There are generally three types of boxing: Amateur, Professional, and Olympic.

Amateur boxing is usually practiced at school, college or university. This type of boxing allows sparring without protection. Amateur boxing competitions usually last three rounds and last five minutes each. Amateur boxing can be done in many styles, including Kickboxing and Muay Thai, Taekwondo or Karate, Judo, Wrestling, and Muay Thai.

Boxing is typically practiced in clubs, stadiums or gyms. They are protected by protective equipment like a mouthpiece, nose protector, shinguards, elbow pads and knee pads, waist belt, and groin protection. Professional boxing competitions include six rounds of four minutes each. There are many types of professional boxing. These include Boxing (MMA), Kickboxing (Mixed Martial Arts), Muay Thai and Taekwondo.

Olympic boxing is practiced at the Olympics. Special protective gear must be worn by boxers to ensure compliance with international standards. The eight rounds last three minutes each and are held over eight rounds. Olympic boxing can be divided into two types: Light Flyweight (Heavyweight) and Heavyweight (Light Flyweight).

The basics of boxing are:

  • Punching techniques
  • Techniques for protecting yourself
  • Footwork
  • Stance
  • Body movement
  • Defense
  • Combination
  • Rotation
  • Spare parts

Punching Techniques

There are seven types. Each punch is different. Some punches require more force than others. An example of this is an uppercut, which requires tremendous force. A straight punch, on the other hand requires less power and is quicker than other punches.

There are also various punching combinations. These are combinations made up of several punches that can be used together to achieve one goal. A combination may contain several parts. For example, a left hook followed by a right cross will cause damage to the opponent’s jaw.

Guard Techniques

To defend himself from being attacked, a boxer uses his entire body. He does this by using his legs.

Legs

A boxer must use his legs to defend against kicks. After receiving a kick, he will raise his leg and move away from the attacker. To avoid being kicked in the side, he bends down if the attacker attacks from the front. But if the attack comes in the back, he will stand straight and block the kick using his foot.

Elbows

Elbow strikes are very effective because they inflict much pain. An elbow strike can be delivered directly or indirectly. Directly, you strike your opponent with your forearm. Indirectly, you hit him with another portion of your arm.

Hands

Boxers use their hands to block incoming blows. To do this, they raise their fists higher than their heads and move their arms in the direction that the attack is coming. The attacker’s fist is then in their face.

Knees

A boxer should bend his knees in order to absorb any blows to his stomach, abdomen, chest or stomach. Knee strikes can be used to defend yourself.

Feet

A boxer should take control of an attack and respond with counter-attacks. This will allow him to gain distance from his opponent. Also, boxers must maintain their balance while delivering counter-attacks.

Stances

To box effectively, a boxer must establish a stance. The way he defends him will be dictated by his stance. It is how he positions himself and where he faces the opponent. There are many positions that boxers can adopt. These are some of our most favorite:

  • Low stance
  • High stance
  • Southpaw stance
  • Western stance

The Body Movement

Boxers must maneuver around their opponent to win fights. This involves changing position, speed and rhythm.

Rotation

Boxers rotate their arms when they throw a punch. Different types of punches require different speeds for the rotation.

Combinations

The timing of each punch will determine the effectiveness and efficiency of a combination. A good combination starts with a strong punch and ends with a weak one.

Spare parts

Sparring is an exercise session to improve boxing skills. During sparring sessions, a boxer trains his mind as well as his body. The purpose of sparring is, in short, to learn how fight and not get hurt.

You need to have patience and dedication in order to learn how boxing works. To be a better boxer you need to train hard.
