"My father didn't talk to me for a while. My brothers also turned away, even Paris. No one wanted me to return, and they made it clear. But it's my life and my decision," shared Tyson.

The boxer admitted that his choice might seem selfish, but he stressed that it's not about money. He returns purely for the love of the sport and is not ready to quit. Fury even stated that he plans to continue fighting until age 50 because he just can't let boxing go.

The Gypsy King will have his first fight after returning on April 11 at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium in London. His opponent will be Canadian heavyweight Arslanbek Makhmudov. The bout will be broadcast live on Netflix worldwide.
