Heavyweight Boxing Great Tyson Fury is perhaps about to return his retirement after the announcement of Turki Alalshikh.
The heavyweight division of Boxing is not the same without the 'Gypsy King' Tyson Fury. Only a few months after the announcement of his retirement, speculation is unbridled over a potential Fury -Comepack.
Fury has not fought since December since a loss of heavyweight title Rematch for Oleksandr Usyk. He lost back-to-back battles to use USYK for the first defeats of Fury's professional career, after he was unbeaten by his first 35 professional trips.
It is known that Fury changes ideas to hang the gloves during his legendary career. Only about seven months since the USYK -Rematch, Fury can be about to be a different reversal of retirement.

Turki Alalshikh assures boxing fans that Tyson Fury 2026 has 'promised'
After the USYK fights, many fans and analysts called for anger to finally secure a heavyweight confrontation with Anthony Joshua in what would be one of the greatest fighting in British boxing history. But after combat discussions up and down, the matchup never flourished and Fury remained determined in his retirement.
During the Hiatus of Fury, the Riyadh season was brought new life into boxing with large name fights with Canelo Alvarez, Terence Crawford and Dmitry Bivol.
In a recent message to X, Turki Alalshikh shook the boxing world with a surprising announcement.
“The 'Gypsy King' is coming back!” Alalshikh stated.
“I spoke to him and I have his word to have him in the Riyadh season in 2026. We have a rabbit to hunt!”
At the moment Fury has not publicly responded to the comments of Alalshikh.
Alalshikh's comments only come a few hours after Fury spoke with seconds and other media about the state of his retirement. Fury stated that he was not going to return to the ring, despite links to the Joshua fight.
An announcement regarding Fury's Potential Boxing Fence can be made officially made in the coming months.
Tyson Fury vs. Anthony Joshua might be able to flourish after the announcement of Turki AlenShikh
After the recent comments from Alalshikh, the Fury vs. Joshua -fighting becomes a reality. Joshua has not fought anymore since a heavyweight title loss for Daniel Dubois last summer.
A potential rematch against former UFC Heavyweight Champion Francis Ngannou could also be in the making if Fury chooses to return to the ring. Ngannou recently admitted that Fury struck him the most difficult to have been struck in his career.
Ngannou recently claimed that his next fight will take place in the boxing ring, even though he remains under contract with the PFL. Ngannou returned to MMA last year and defeated Renan Ferreira through the first round of TKO.
Fury defeated Ngannou through a split decision in October 2023 in a great fear of the British star. Ngannou dropped anger during the fight and many viewers scored the game in favor of the former UFC champion.
