JAKARTA Former WBC heavyweight world champion, Tyson Fury, continues to train himself in fitness so that his physical and mental state is maintained as part of his third volume duel plan against Oleksandr Usyk.
British heavyweight promoter Frank Warren has confirmed the fighter nicknamed King way it won't get into the ring this year, but he has a great desire to fight Usyk again.
"I talked to him (Fury) over the weekend about boxing. He's not going to fight this year."
"He will appear in the second series of Netflix, but he is in fitness. He is there for his health, both physically and mentally. That keeps him in a fit state," Warren said, confiscated by BBC Sport.

Fury, who is currently 36 years old, announced his retirement from boxing in January 2025 after losing twice to Usyk, who is currently the WBA, WBC, and WBO champions.
However, earlier this month Fury in a post on social media announced plans for a trilogy fight against Usyk from Ukraine at Wembley Stadium in April 2026.
"He has a mentality that he is in fitness and must do something. He has confirmed that he wants to fight Usyk," Warren said.
Fury, who has been a heavyweight champion twice, has previously stated his retirement in 2022. However, he returned six months later.
The King ofTEN lost his first against Usyk in May 2024. At that time, the two fighters boarded the ring to fight for the undisputed world champion status.
Their second volume clash then took place in December 2024 after Usyk vacated the IBF belt. In the clash, Fury had to re-cognize his opponent's advantage.
Meanwhile, Usyk will face Daniel Dubois this weekend at Wembley. If he wins then he will become the undisputed world champion twice and become the first fighter to do so in the four-belt era.
