Tyson Fury Quits Boxing on Twitter.......Then Makes A Comeback According To His Uncle Peter (Edit)

First topic message reminder :

Controversial heavyweight boxer Tyson Fury has shocked fight fans by announcing his sudden retirement on Twitter.

MORE: Haye reveals retirement plan

The 25-year-old Mancunian made the announcement just days after David Haye, who was due to fight Fury in February, announced his own plan to retire following serious shoulder surgery.

In his tweet, Fury simply stated: ‘Hi every1 I have officially retired from boxing. There’s to many bent people in the sport. They will have to f*** some1 else. Good by boxin.’


Fury also appeared to allude to his decision to quit by changing his Twitter bio to ‘ex boxer’ and his byline to ‘Tyson avoided Fury’.



EDIT

Tyson Fury’s trainer and uncle has denied the boxer has retired from the sport and his promoter have confirmed talks have started for a possible fight with Deontay Wilder.

Peter Fury took to Twitter to put the story to bed and said his nephew would be back in the ring soon.

Fury was clearly enraged by Haye's announcement and took to Twitter on Sunday to criticise his fellow Briton. Mick Hennessy, Fury’s promoter, said the boxer was shocked at the way things panned out with Haye but he is hoping a fight with Wilder can be arranged.

‘We have had talks with Wilder’s people and we are in discussions at the moment but obviously there are a lot of pieces of the jigsaw we need to fit together,’ Hennessy said.

‘We are looking at a number of different options but one thing we do know is that Tyson is one of the biggest draws in world boxing at the moment and as soon as he is ready we will look to get him back in the ring.’

Fury is the ultimate embarrassment to British boxing, acts like a tool and doesn't have any ability to make up for it. If only he did retire.

I doubt that.... Even he can't compete with the competition.

Who's worse, while Haye, Froch and Khan act like tools they have ability, the latter being in some exciting fights against the best. Fury is a talentless oaf who makes me ashamed of being British.

That kid who used to dance to the ring like a knob thinking he was Hamed..........and ended up face down after a minute is hard to beat.

Usman Ahmed doesn't really enter into my thinking Truss, I've never had any interested in the lower weights at domestic level. Watching one average beat another then lose to someone else then winning again next fight.

When someone say's "he is the ultimate embarrassment to British Boxing"........It's different than saying "I think he is the ultimate embarrassment to British Boxing".......

That kid takes some beating....Whatever you think..........

Have no doubt he rides higher than Tyson........

Ricky Hatton is up there.

The thing is Truss Ahmed isn't high profile enough to be an embarrassment. Fury is a face of British boxing now and it's an image that doesn't sit well with me. Hell it makes me miss our heavyweights of the early 90's, I'd take Mason or Bruno in a heartbeat, even Akinwande.
