Tyson Fury has seemingly suggested that he will face Oleksandr Usyk in a colossal undisputed heavyweight fight after all as he mercilessly mocked both the Ukrainian and long-time rival Anthony Joshua following their high-profile rematch in Saudi Arabia.
The self-proclaimed ‘Gypsy King’ insisted again on the occasion of his 34th birthday last week that he was retired from boxing, having previously stated that he would return to end his illustrious career with an all-British trilogy bout against Derek Chisora, whom he claimed turned down a potential £2million payday for a fight later in 2022.
However, Usyk stated soon after his hard-fought split-decision win over an improved Joshua in Jeddah that he believed Fury did want to fight him for the chance to become the first undisputed king of the heavyweight ranks since the legendary Lennox Lewis.
Fury - who has relinquished The Ring title that now belongs to Usyk but still holds the WBC belt at this stage - responded quickly with a short, expletive-ridden video clip posted to his Twitter account in which he heavily criticised both Usyk and Joshua and strongly hinted that his glittering career had not yet reached its conclusion after all.
“I’ll be honest with you guys, after watching that, both of them were s***e,” he said.
“It was one of the worst heavyweight title fights I have ever seen. It was bull***t.
“I would annihilate both of them on the same night. F*****g s***e.
“Get your f*****g chequebook out because the Gypsy King is here to stay, forever.”
