After his sixth-round technical knockout of Dillian Whyte, Tyson Fury said he was the best of all time. The song is called "1:00."
Tyson Fury announced his retirement in April, but it doesn't seem like he'll be back for long.
Since his sixth-round victory over Dillian Whyte in London in April, "The Gypsy King" has changed his mind about fighting again.
He said the only way he would come out of retirement was for a $500 million purse. On Wednesday, he claimed that he would step inside the ropes again only for a fight with Anthony Joshua in the UK for free.
"I'll sign the contract today, that's how the fight happens, I'm 33 years old," he wrote. The fight has to cost nothing. Television and tickets are free. Money is not going to be made out of this fight. The terms are "I'm in the driving seat, take it or leave it" Guys, the ball is in your possession. I don't care either way.
This is completely different to the negotiations that took place with Joshua last year for a fight that was eventually scrapped when it was ruled that he had to face Deontay Wilder again. The Saudi Arabia government was prepared to pay more than $150 million for the rights to the title fight.
Instead, Joshua lost his three titles to Oleksandr Usyk in September, and then he was knocked out by Tyson Fury in a trilogy fight in October.
The winner of the Usyk and Joshua fight will get a large sum of money to fight the winner of the Joshua fight.
