After taking down Dillian White in their WBC heavyweight title fight, Tyson Fury admitted that he is considering retirement.
While the Gypsy King certainly has plenty of gas left in the tank, he revealed in his post-fight interview that he has made a promise to his wife that he will call it a career after his latest win.
“I have to be a man of my word, and I think this might be the final curtain for the Gypsy King, and what a way to go out,” Fury said, via CNN.
If Tyson Fury really decides to step away from the sport, there is no doubt he'll go down as one of the best in history with his near-immaculate record of 32 wins and one draw with 23 KOs. He has never lost in a fight, and what better way for him to end his career than a crazy knockout.
Fury put Whyte down in the sixth round of their bout at Wembley Stadium, delivering a powerful uppercut that left his opponent with no chance at all.

For what it's worth, Fury's promoter Frank Warren is in full support of his boxer on whatever he plans to do. If the 33-year-old calls it a career, then so be it.
“If it was going to be the last fight, it'll be the last fight. That's his decision, he's the guy getting in the ring. And if it is his last fight he has gone out on such a high,” Warren said.
It remains to be seen what Fury's final decision will be. But hey, there's still a chance fans see him in the ring–just not in boxing but in wrestling with the WWE instead.
