TYSON FURY has teased that a major announcement is on the horizon amid his continued tooing and froing from retirement.
The Gypsy King kicked up a fuss in the aftermath of his second straight defeat to Oleksandr Usyk last December and announced his FIFTH retirement from boxing.
But he performed a public U-turn in April as he campaigned for a trilogy fight with the two-time undisputed heavyweight king.
The Wythenshawe warrior, however, dashed the hopes of fans excited to see him fight again earlier this month by claiming he will “NEVER” set foot inside the ring again.
But he’s once again left the boxing world on tenterhooks by revealing he’s set to make a big announcement.
He said on his Instagram story on Monday: “I’ve got the biggest announcement of the year incoming. Stay tuned.”
Fury, who celebrated his 37th birthday earlier this month, has arguably the biggest payday of his career awaiting him if he does decide to lace up his gloves again.
A lucrative and long-overdue battle with Brit rival Anthony Joshua is in the offing for the dad-of-seven.
But the former two-time king of the heavyweights could seemingly care little about fighting again, telling Sky Sports when asked if he’d return to the ring: “Never. Really!
“[I’m] too old, look at my beard, all grey. Boxing‘s a young man’s game.”

Fury’s latest comments on a return to the squared circle are in stark contrast to the admission he made about fighting last month.
Speaking ahead of Usyk’s rematch with Daniel Dubois at Wembley, he said: “I do miss it.
“Every single day I wake up in the morning and miss it.
“I’ve been away seven months, missed it every day. I’m open to offers at the moment.
“I’m not going to be doing any comebacks this year, that’s for sure.
“I’m busy, as you can see, I’ve got Netflix here.
“I’m filming At Home With The Furys season two. Come on!
I’ve got the biggest announcement of the year incoming. Stay tuned!”

“And then next year, the big GK is going to make a f***ing comeback.
“The takeover! I’m gonna be 37 in about three weeks.
“I’m going to be the oldest swinger with all these young boys coming up.
“It’s going to be difficult, but I believe I can put on some very good nights still.”
