Fans are confused by Tyson Fury's claim that he has retired from boxing, hours after claiming he would fight for the right price

TYSON FURY claims he is still retired from boxing despite his insistance just hours earlier that he would return the ring for the right amount.

After his victory over Dillian Whyte, the WBC heavyweight champion, 33 years old, decided to end his glittering career.

Recent reports suggest that he could face Oleksandr Usyk, the winner of Anthony Joshua's rematch against him in an undisputed match-up.

Fury further fuelled those hopes.

Frank Warren's Queensbury Promotions heard from him Tuesday that he would "100%" return to the squared circle.

However, the Gypsy King made a U turn on his U-turn less than 24 hours after making those comments.

Fury stated that he is happy to be retired and satisfied with his career and the things he has done, when Fury was asked about his future on Good Morning Britain.

"Never say die, but professional boxing is absolutely useless to me."

"Enough is enough. I'm happy doing the showbiz side to boxing."

Then he stated that he would only participate in exhibition fights moving forward.

Fury commented, "Nothing has happened. I'm going do some exhibition matches so they're not real fights." They are entertainment.

This is not professional boxing. It is entertainment. Hollywood-style entertainment. It's that simple. It's that simple.

He said, "I'm looking to fight Mike Tyson, Lennox Lewis rank Bruno, or any other person." Dwayne Johnson - The Rock, that'll make you feel great.

"You never know who you could be fighting on these shows. But that's what I hope to do in the future."

His comments left fans confused. One user tweeted, "Does retirement mean retirement in sports nowadays?"

Another message read: "I love Tyson, but what is this guy talking about?" We are certain he will be returning for Joshua or Usyk 100%.
