Promoter Bob Arum does not think Tyson Fury will return to the ring after the former world champion announced his retirement in January. Fury, 36, announced he had quit the sport several weeks after his second successive defeat to Ukraine’s current champion Oleksandr Usyk. The British heavyweight had stepped out of retirement on three previous occasions, the latest in 2023, but Arum told the BBC 5 Live Boxing podcast he does not expect another U-turn. Arum said: “If I was a betting man I would say he will never fight again. Marvin Hagler had an expression - ‘a rich guy who goes to bed wearing silk pyjamas doesn’t get up in the morning to do road work’. Fury was undefeated before back-to-back losses to Usyk in Saudi Arabia, in May and December last year and his record stands at 34 wins, one draw and the two defeats. (PA Media/DPA)
