Fury, 34, said: “I almost feel sorry for the Gypsy King because although I want him to become obsolete I cannot get away from him.
“He’s a lonely, horrible, sad person without the fight game.
“I created a monster and I’m to blame.”
Fury retired after knocking out Dillian Whyte at Wembley Stadium in April and said he wanted to lead a quiet life at home in Morecambe with his family.
But he has since reversed that decision and hinted the only way he would retire would be if he is beaten or if he seeks medical help to escape his alter ego’s demands.
Speaking to Behind the Gloves on YouTube, Fury added: “I want to be out of boxing, but I can’t let it go so keep going for the sake of the Gypsy King. Maybe there is a doctor out there who can help me because I think I’m going to need mental help to let go of this thing.”

Guard Techniques
To defend himself from being attacked, a boxer uses his entire body. He does this by using his legs, arms, elbows, hands, knees and feet.
Legs
To defend against kicks, a boxer should use his legs. If he gets kicked, he raises one leg and turns away from his attacker. To avoid being kicked in the side, he bends down if the attacker attacks from the front. However, if the attack comes from behind, he stands up straight and blocks the kick with his foot.
Elbows
Because they cause great pain, elbow strikes are extremely effective. You can either deliver an elbow strike directly, or indirectly. Directly refers to hitting your opponent with the forearm, while indirect means you hit him using another part of your arms.
Hands
Boxers use their hands to block incoming blows. Boxers raise their fists to block incoming blows and then move in the direction of the attacker’s attack. They then touch the attackers fist.
Knees
Boxers should bend their knees when receiving blows to the abdomen, stomach, or chest. Knee strikes are often used for defense purposes.
Feet
A boxer should take control of an attack and respond with counter-attacks. He can then gain distance from his opponent. Additionally, boxers need to maintain their balance when they counter-attack.
Stances
A boxer must have a stance in order to be effective at boxing. The way he defends himself will be determined by his stance. It determines where he will face his opponent and how he will position his body. There are many stances available to boxers. These are the most popular:
- Low stance
- High stance
- Southpaw stance
- Western stance
Body Movement
A boxer must change his position, speed and rhythm in order to win the fight. This requires changing your position, speed, and rhythm.
Rotation
Rotating his arm to increase the puncher’s reach is a key part of boxing. Depending on what punch is being thrown, the speed of rotation varies.
Combinations
The effectiveness of a combination depends on the timing of each individual punch. A combination of strong and weak punches will produce a good result.
Spare parts
Sparring is a practice session designed to improve boxing skills . Sparring is a training session that helps a boxer train his mind and body. In conclusion, the purpose of sparring is to learn how to fight and not get hurt.
