Tyson Fury (32-0-1) of the WBC and Ring Magazine heavyweight championships, who recently attended an event at the Rainton Arena in Houghton-le-Spring, England, is back in the news.
The celebration of his knockout victory against Dillian Whyte, which happened in front of a record crowd at Wembley Stadium in April, was called “Fury Fest—The Official After Party Tour.”
Fury gave the audience at the event this explanation of his decision to retire. One more, two more, people say. However, if I were in a wheelchair and announced, “I had four more bouts, people. I suffered brain damage.”
These enormous men are punching me square in the skull. I’m serious, you guys. I’ve had it with fighting and don’t want to anymore.
It’s interesting to note that on other occasions, Fury mentioned debating whether to don the gloves for an undisputed fight by waiting for the outcome of Anthony Joshua vs. Oleksandr Usyk 2. This is not surprising because Fury has a habit of changing his mind about things he has said.
Following Fury’s victory over Whyte, WBC President Mauricio Sulaiman stated exclusively to FanSided that Fury “deserves to enjoy a wonderful time with his family after a fantastic event.” There was no obligation because Whyte was the requirement.

While Fury’s boxing career is still in limbo, the entertainment industry is in full flow thanks to rumors that he would take part in another WWE event in September called “Clash at the Castle,” which will be broadcast live from the United Kingdom.
Fury has previously competed for the WWE; his match with Braun Strauman took place at the “Crown Jewel” event in 2019. We may see Fury at a wrestling event this year because of how open he has been about working with the WWE in the future.
One cannot disregard what he said in light of his remarks at this event, and one can only hope that any potential side effects of the head trauma he described are being attended to.
