Tyson Fury has explained his previous statement that he could retire happy without fighting Anthony Joshua or Oleksandr Usyk, declaring that he achieved his main goal in 2015.
The world heavyweight champion's primary ambition in the sport was to dethrone Wladimir Klitschko after his years atop the division, which he did on a special night in Germany in November 2015. He ended up battling depression and losing three years of his career after the victory, struggling to come to terms with the enormity of his win, but returned and beat Deontay Wilder in 2020.
Now, he has no burning desire to face any of the world's top heavyweights, including the current unified title holder Usyk whom he is slated to fight in early next year. The Brit has detailed how when Joshua and Usyk were still amateurs, he was pushing towards his goal of fighting Klitschko, and believes they are just the products of a shifting goalpost in the sport.
