Fury last hung up his gloves in 2025 after back-to-back losses to Oleksandr Usyk. However, despite those setbacks, Fury remains passionate about the sport that began in 2008 with his debut. "It's not for financial gain," Fury says, "I could've retired ten years ago, made an absolute fortune."
Fury captured titles like the WBC in 2020 and won accolades such as ‘Fighter of The Year’ twice. His career took a downturn when he retired in 2025 following defeats by Usyk, yet this hasn't deterred him from making a comeback.
What drives Fury now isn't just nostalgia or unfinished business – it's personal drive. In his own words: “My destiny lies within the fight game.” At nearly 38 years old, he feels most alive when fighting and admits to having no other interests outside of boxing.
A potential matchup against Anthony Joshua looms on the horizon. After his useable victory over Jake Paul in late 2025, Joshua called out Fury publicly. Unfortunately, a tragic car accident in Nigeria involving Joshua's team stalled momentum toward what would be a blockbuster event.
Early talks also hint at a possible tune-up fight for Fury against lesser-known Arslanbek Makhmudov. Details remain sparse as discussions continue about this return bout.
