Tyson Fury vows to come out of retirement if Oleksandr Usyk begs him for fight

Tyson Fury has vowed to end his retirement and fight Oleksandr Usyk if his rival begs and his "costly" demands are met.

The 'Gypsy King' defeated Dillian Whyte in his title defence back in April and declared that was his last time stepping beyond the ropes as a heavyweight champion. Nonetheless, the opportunity to face the winner of Anthony Joshua 's rematch with Usyk for the undisputed crown awaits and he is yet to vacate his WBC title.

Fury previously indicated that he would demand a staggering £500million to try and become the first man since Lennox Lewis to reign as undisputed king. However, he believes Joshua will lose his rematch with Usyk, which will see him called back into action. "He's gonna lose again, then they're gonna call for Achilles to come back," Fury told talkSPORT Fight Night when discussing a possible ring return. "And I'm gonna say, 'Get f***ed, I'm retired.' And then, when they're begging, I will return, but it's gonna be very costly."
