‘I WANT MY SON TO RETIRE NOW, HE’S DONE ENOUGH’ – TYSON FURY’S FATHER

Written by on February 24, 2020

Tyson Fury’s father, John Fury, announced that he has told his son (the new WBC champion) to retire following his triumph over Deontay Wilder and claims the Gypsy King is considering doing so.

John Fury, a former Heavyweight boxer says he will like his son to walk away from the sport now that he has attained greatness.

Speaking on Good Morning Britain on Monday morning,
he said:
‘I want my son to retire now. He’s done enough to prove.
‘It’s been an uphill battle for him. He’s done enough. I want him to pack it in now. ‘I think it’s in the back of his mind. He can’t do anymore. Enough is enough. He’s given all.’

‘I’ll be honest, I’m sat here today and I still keep pinching myself because where he was two years ago there was no hope. ‘He was that low, he went that far back, I didn’t think he was ever going to get back. A light switch just went on and off and here we are today.
But I just think myself there’s more to life than we see with the eye, there’s got to be because he was in such a mess. ‘It was a dark time when you see a man who was like drinking himself to death to escape reality, and he was eating all kinds of food and a bucket load. And he was doing it in front of you. When your son stops caring what you think as a father and a parent, that’s time to worry.’
