Tyson Fury knocked out by Anthony Joshua and into retirement... star's nightmare 2025
Share:
It's back to the drawing board for Tyson Fury as the two-time heavyweight champion aims to get back to winning ways in 2025. This year has been an unforgettable one for the 'Gypsy King' after suffering back-to-back defeats to heavyweight rival Oleksandr Usyk. In their first encounter back in May, the 36-year-old went toe-to-toe with the Ukrainian in an epic bout before suffering a spit decision loss in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia.
Seven months later, the pair would go toe-to-toe once again. It's fair to say Fury boxed superbly in the sequel with the Ukrainian, but unfortunately for the Brit, it wasn't enough to hand Usyk the first loss of his professional career. With 'The Cat' remaining the king of the heavyweight division, it begs question... what's next for Tyson Fury?.
While Fury will no doubt be licking his wounds following his loss to Usyk, there are still plenty of options for the 'Gypsy King'. Many have called for an all-British showdown between Fury and two-time heavyweight champion Anthony Joshua. Matchroom promoter Eddie Hearn has revealed he will look to stage a historic clash between Joshua and Fury. "I don't think it's time to start screaming, this night is Usyk vs Fury, but the reality is there's only one fight for Tyson Fury and that's Anthony Joshua," Hearn told DAZN.
"It's the biggest fight probably in the history of British boxing, everyone will always want to see it. And by the way, that wasn't a Tyson Fury that looked finished, it wasn't a flat performance, it wasn't a poor performance, he didn't look gun-shy, he didn't look like his punch resistance was in question like we talked about earlier.
