Tyson Fury maintains that he is still retired

Fury, 33 years old, stated that he would not hesitate to fight for the winner of all the belts. He also announced his retirement.

WBC is now pushing for an answer from the champion heavyweight.

Eddie Hearn, the promoter, believes that if Fury changes his mind and Joshua beats Usyk (35), it could set AJ up to fight for a legacy-defining fight.

Hearn stated to iFL TV, "I guess he [Fury] will be asked, 'Are your retiring? And if so, do we need to vacate that belt?"

With his career at stake, AJ plans to make a comeback to the desert in hopes of doing the Double in the Middle East.

Hearn stated that there is a good chance that you will see the fight on July 23rd in the Middle East.

"We've received many offers from all over the globe. We've been looking at them and are close to that possibility.

"Team Usyk has stressed that this is the option they prefer, because it's expensive.

"Quite honestly, Team Usyk would prefer a neutral venue. I can't blame them. That's where we are.
