What Tyson Fury did the morning after Dillian Whyte knockout

Tyson Fury celebrated one of the finest nights of his career by partying throughout the day on Sunday with family and friends after what seems to be his final fight. Fury beat Dillian Whyte with a sixth round knockout at Wembley Stadium on Saturday night to retain his WBC and lineal world championship titles in front of 94,000 people.

In the morning after the fight, wife Paris took to Instagram to post a family snap on her story with both Fury's brother Tommy and his partner Molly Mae Hague eating breakfast at the The Three Horseshoes Pub in the village of Letchmore Heath in Hertfordshire The image was captioned 'Family celebration' and Tyson appeared to be eating fruit and pancakes.

The manager of the pub spoke to the Sun, revealing that they wouldn't normally serve breakfast but had made an exception for the heavyweight champion of the world, explaining: “We don’t actually serve breakfast — but obviously the chef was happy to sort it out for Tyson and his family.".

He then moved on to party at Sheesh restaurant in Chigwell, Essex where TV presenter star Mark Wright posted a picture on his Instagram story partying with Fury. The 6"9" Gypsy King was wearing colourful trousers with a black hat as his group celebrated with champagne and food throughout Sunday.

Fury appeared to confirm his retirement after the fight, revealing a promise made to Paris after his trilogy victory over Deontay Wilder last October. Speaking to BT Sport he said: "I promised my lovely wife Paris that after the third fight with Wilder that would be it and I meant it.

"I then got offered to fight at Wembley and I thought I owed it to the fans, to every person in the United Kingdom, to come here and fight. Now it's all done I have to be a man of my word. I think this is it, it might be the final curtain for The Gypsy King and what a way to go out!"

Paris played down his retirement plans after the fight, explaining that Fury could well return to the ring, but only in the case of a unification bout with either Anthony Joshua or Oleksandr Usyk, who have a rematch this year.

She said: "I know in my heart that the only reason Tyson would come back is for a unification fight and that would be the only reason. He has nothing left to prove," she said.
