Tyson Fury too passionate to leave boxing says Father

 

John Fury has said Tyson Fury made the decision to come out of retirement because he felt like his life was ‘falling to pieces without boxing’.

The Gypsy King announced he would be retiring from the sport after knocking out his British rival Dillian Whyte in April. However, Tyson has fluctuated in and out the retirement ever since.

John has now revealed in an exclusive interview with Sportsmail that the Gypsy King came to him and said he felt like his life was ‘crumbling by the second’ after hanging up his gloves.

Speaking to Sportsmail, via Freebets.com, John said Tyson decided to return to the ring after ‘smelling the gloves in the gym’ and realising he had more to give to the sport.

John laughed: ‘Tyson has been in and out of retirement since he turned pro. Aged 15, years ago. He will fall out with boxing for a week and then he loves it again.

‘He loves boxing. Tyson has got nothing else without boxing. He loves the game so much. He said to me, ‘I was retired for four weeks and my life has fallen to pieces. I can feel my life crumbling’. He said ‘my life was crumbling by the second’.

‘He said he kept walking into the gym and smelling the gloves. Smelling the sweat and looking through the window thinking I want to get back in the game.

‘He said he realised he was not done yet and not by a long chalk. So I said to him, ‘Son if you feel like that, keep going until you don’t feel like it anymore’.

John is adamant that Tyson is in the greatest shape of his life and that fans are witnessing the best version of the Gypsy King.

Tyson’s father finds it hard to believe there is anyone out there than can challenge his son as the 34-year-old has ‘cleaned up all over the board’.

John said: ‘At the minute, you’ve got the best Tyson. He’s in the pump of his life. I think he just wanted to capitalise on how he feels. He trains hard, twice a day still. I do think at this moment in time, Tyson Fury is unbeatable.

‘I’m not just saying it because he is my son, but he has given me the right to sit here and big him up. He’s won everything. He’s won every professional title there is to win.
