JAKARTA - Tyson Fury made a surprising decision. The 33-year-old boxer decided to retire after the knockout victory over Dillian Whyte, Sunday, April 24.
He closed his career with an unbeaten record. He holds a record of 32 wins of which 23 were by knockout.
The boxer, nicknamed the Gypsy King, decided to retire because he had promised his wife, Paris Fury. He also said that he actually wanted to take the decision to hang up his boxing gloves after the fight with Deontay Wilder.
"But then I was offered this (fight with Whyte) and I owe it to the fans and everyone in England," Fury said, as quoted by The Sun.
"I have to keep my promise, so this may be the last fight. Thank you England," he continued.
However, shortly after the announcement, a tantalizing offer came for Fury. Reportedly, there are those who offer a fight worth 100 million pounds, equivalent to Rp. 1.8 trillion.
However, it did not say who his opponent would be. There are only rumors that there are several candidates to be the next Tyson Fury opponent, namely Anthony Joshua, Oleksandr Usyk, Francis Ngganou and Derek Chisora.
Boxing promoter, Barry Hearn rate, the offer could have made Tyson Fury change his decision. "I've seen so many comebacks over the years. People who have sandwiches always want steak," he said.
However, a statement from Tyson Fury's wife indicated that the offer of money would not make the champion return to boxing. He allowed Tyson to return to the ring if he had something to bring him back.
"But if he's just doing it for money or fame, he doesn't need that," Paris said.
