Controversial world heavyweight champion Tyson Fury appeared to make a U-turn on his retirement decision on Monday, tweeting: “I’m here to stay.”
“Hahahaha u think you will get rid of the GYPSYKING that easy!!! I’m here to stay. #TheGreatest just shows u what the Medea (sic) are like. Tut tut,” Fury wrote on Twitter.
The outspoken 28-year-old British fighter, dogged by reports he failed a drugs test for cocaine, had earlier declared himself “retired” in a profanity-strewn tweet.
“Boxing is the saddest thing I ever took part in, all a pile of shit,” he wrote earlier in the day. “I’m the greatest and I’m also retired…”
