Amid calls for more fights, Fury says he’s ‘done’ with boxing

WBC heavyweight champion Tyson Fury is not listening to calls for him to consider staying on in boxing, as he has confirmed he is “done” with the sport, IgbereTV reports

The Briton declared he was going to retire following his knockout win over Dillian Whyte at Wembley, England on Saturday.

Fury stands a chance of becoming the undisputed champion if he stayed on to have the unification fight that has been expected to happen before the year runs out.

And Whyte, who was defeated at the weekend, had also hoped that his opponent would remain in the sport so there could be a rematch.

But speaking to Piers Morgan’s TalkTV show on Wednesday, Fury said he was deciding to leave boxing behind to spend more time with his family.

“I am done. Every good dog has its day,” he said.
