Overview

• Fury said “never” when asked at Doncaster Racecourse if he would return, calling boxing a young man’s game and pointing to his grey beard.
• His latest retirement reversal follows a July deal with Saudi Arabia’s General Entertainment Authority for a 2026 comeback at Riyadh Season that would include a potential third fight against Oleksandr Usyk.
• Turki Alalshikh previously tweeted that Fury had given his word to fight in the 2026 Riyadh Season event, but Fury’s new remarks cast doubt on plans for the Wembley Stadium trilogy.
• The 36-year-old is branching into horse racing ownership with his filly ‘Big Gypsy King’ and is busy filming season two of Netflix’s “At Home With The Furys.”
• Talk of a blockbuster showdown with Anthony Joshua continues, though Fury’s firm retirement stance appears to close the door on any future high-profile matchups.
