Why is he talking about retirement when he can become the first undisputed heavyweight champion in yonks ? Surely he fights winner of Joshua and Uysk rematch and gets all the belts. Cement your legacy, why would you not want to do that ?

 

[FrenchDarrenBent]

Why are you always consistently wrong in every single thread you post in.

You really think you're right?
150 years of professional boxing and Tyson Fury is (one of the) the greatest to ever do it after KO'ing Whyte, Wilder and a 42 year old Klitschko?

Really?

 

[WilliamPerry]

Fury would be a great in any era of heavyweight boxing. Joshua would be a world champion in any era. Can’t compare eras, it’s impossible. Rocky Marciano considered one of the greats, if he boxed now, he’s be a light heavyweight

Spot on mate

The more he shouts retirement the more money he gets threw at him not to

All about getting the ££££ in . He’s got no intention of retiring

Maybe he's sick of the grind?

Made his money and has a family he'd probably like to see more of

I get it

No way he’s retiring. His current fight deal is up now and so silly money will be getting thrown his way.

Smith v Vargas
taylor v Serrano
canelo v bivol
stevenson v Valdez

next 2 weeks aren’t bad either

 

[widnesblue]

Better boxing pundits with far more boxing knowledge than most of us will ever have rate him as worthy of the discussion as one of the GOATs.

Make of that what you will. As you say, different eras, also different sport in many respects

Absolutely. These heavyweights are giants, absolute giants. The problem in this era is, you’ve got giants, then massive men who are 6’3/6’4 weighing 18/19stone. It’s two divisions in one in a way.

Great finish, was poor enough stuff up to that. Can't see fury retiring yet, some big fights still out there

 

[d34noj]

Boring fight. As far as 'boxing' goes, he did his job, held him off with the long jab, held if he felt White was getting some pace and tapped away until he got a half-uppercut in - coupled with a push.

Typical Fury snoozefest.

The fan boy in me wants to see AJ v Fury but think Usyk v Fury would be so intriguing

Hard to appreciate how big the likes of Whyte are when Fury towers over them?

This

Promoters will be talking telephone numbers to him to take on either Usyk or AJ
