Fury knocked out fellow Briton Dillian Whyte in April to retain
his title before telling fans he would be sticking to his
promise to his wife to retire.
"I won everything, so a warrior can do what a warrior wants to
do," Fury told

2022/06/18/tyson-fury-exclusive-boxing-done-everything-asked the
Daily Telegraph on Saturday. "But the actual man is done with
fighting.
"Boxing -- and professional fighting -- I am so over it ... I've
done everything that was asked of me, defeated every opponent
I've ever faced and to be able to have a life after that --
isn't that amazing and a beautiful thing?"
When asked how much money would need to be involved to tempt him
into making a return, Fury said "500 million pounds".
"So if somebody wants to pay that, I'm sure there's people out
there with a lot more than that, then I'll return. But until
that day, kaput, I'm out. And if someone wants to waste half a
billion, I suppose my morality will be tested."
In April, Fury's wife, Paris, said the 33-year-old might return
for an undisputed world title fight against the winner of
Anthony Joshua's rematch with Oleksandr Usyk.
