IBF heavyweight champion Daniel Dubois believes that Tyson Fury should retire after losing to unified champion Oleksandr Usyk in a rematch last Saturday night in Riyadh.
Dubois didn't come right out and say it, but Fury (34-2-1, 24 KOs) looked old and worn out, getting schooled for 12 rounds by Usyk. The Ukrainian talent never had to go beyond second gear, as he took down the Gypsy King in front of a deathly quiet crowd at Kingdom Arena.
After the fight, Tyson didn't say whether he was retiring or not, but it's clear he'll be back in the ring for both fights against Anthony Joshua in 2025. There's a lot of money to be made in that 'Battle of Britain'. Matches to reject it.
Tyson Fury's net worth is estimated at $160 million, and while he doesn't need to go on, he would certainly add another $100 million to that total. there Greed factor.
Dubois calls for retirement
“Fury has had a great career. I think it's time for him to call it quits now,” Daniel Dubois said. secondin response to the old-looking Tyson Fury getting beaten once again by Oleksandr Usyk last Saturday night.
It would be great if Dubois could knock out Tyson in style by fighting him. This would allow the young talent to use the old lion to increase his star power. If the Gypsy King wanted to be useful, he would let Dubois take his scalp.
Fury's fans were in denial about his loss, believing he had done enough to deserve the win. They are kidding themselves. He lost, and looked terrible the whole time. He was beaten with three-punch combinations by Usyk when he tried to hit him late in the fight and did little.
It's been years since Fury has beaten a semi-respected fighter. The last man with an ounce of talent to be defeated by the Gypsy King was Deontay Wilder in their trilogy bout on October 9, 2021. This win is very fragile, given that many believe Fury had a chance. Long count In the fourth round when he was dropped. Deontay isn't a great fighter, but this is Fury's best win in the last three years.
It was Smoke and mirrors With Fury for years, where he was a sub-par fighter, his gullible fans idolized him, thinking he was the best. He was fooling their eyes for the last 14 years of his career, and they were none the wiser.
