Fight Talk: Will Tyson Fury retire after Dillian Whyte fight or is he on a wind-up?

In this week's Fight Talk, Tyson Fury says he will retire from boxing following the upcoming heavyweight clash with Dillian Whyte in April. But will the WBC champion actually hang up his gloves?

Also, after months of speculation, Anthony Joshua confirms his new head trainer and will Amir Khan invoke his rematch clause against Kell Brook after the one-sided nature of their clash last month?

Here's your weekly fix of boxing news.

British heavyweight champion Tyson Fury has said he will soon retire from boxing, claiming he has more money than he will ever need.

'The Gypsy King' is set to face Dillian Whyte at Wembley on 23 April.

Fury, a two-time heavyweight champion, has caused quite a stir with these comments and while some understand his reasoning, many fight fans don't think he will actually go through it.

Here's how social media reacted.

Fury can be considered a bit of a wind-up merchant — and Matchroom Boxing promoter Eddie Hearn has suggested he's not falling for it.

«If you believe anything Tyson Fury says, you're absolutely mad,» Hearn said.

There are huge potential fights out there for Fury should he overcome Whyte.

The undefeated champion could fight Oleksandr Usyk in an undisputed clash or be involved in an all-British super fight against Anthony Joshua.

Fury has also welcomed a crossover fight with UFC heavyweight champion Francis Ngannou next year.

«I don't class that as a real boxing fight. That's going to be a special fight,» he told The MMA Hour. «That will be in a cage with 4oz gloves in Las Vegas at the Raiders Stadium.»

Where do you stand? Will Fury's fight against Whyte be the last time we see him in a competitive boxing bout? Are you interested in seeing a fight between Fury and Ngannou?
