Tyson Fury Names The One Heavyweight He'll Never Fight: "Not Worth The Risk"

Fury hung up his gloves in January after two big fights with Oleksandr Usyk in 2024. In May, Usyk beat Fury by split decision to become the first undisputed heavyweight champion in the four-belt era. Usyk then won their rematch in December by unanimous decision.

Since then, there's been talk about Fury coming back for an all-British showdown with Anthony Joshua. But when asked about facing 20-year-old Moses Itauma, Fury quickly shot down the idea.

In a clip posted by Queensberry Promotions, Fury said:

"Fight Moses Itauma? No, definitely not. Do you think I'm stupid?"

Fury's reaction shows he sees Itauma as a real threat. The young heavyweight has an impressive record of 12 wins, with 10 by knockout, and no losses. Itauma recently missed out on breaking Mike Tyson's record as the youngest world heavyweight champion.

While Fury seems open to a comeback, he's clearly picking his battles carefully. The boxing world will be watching closely to see if and when the 'Gypsy King' decides to step back into the ring.
