Price Casts Doubt on Tyson Fury Retirement, Predicts Showdown with Anthony Joshua

Former heavyweight contender David Price is not convinced that Tyson Fury has truly retired from boxing and shared his thoughts on how a potential fight with Anthony Joshua would unfold.

Fury announced his retirement last month, weeks after consecutive losses to Oleksandr Usyk. Price, however, is not convinced. “I took his retirement with a pinch of salt.

The nature of it was quite blasé. It was just a quick video message on social media without much context,” “On the flip side, it wouldn’t surprise you if he did retire after the Usyk fight, because he doesn’t always do things by the book.

Regarding a potential Fury-Joshua fight, Price believes it would still be a massive stadium sell-out. “It’s still a massive fight; it would easily sell a big stadium. I’d certainly be watching it. They’re still in their 30s, they’re still in their prime as men,” he said.

“The wise money would be on Fury; if you look at like-for-like results and losses on the record, he’s lost to Usyk twice, while Joshua’s done the same but then lost to Ruiz and Dubois too.

“Fury has never been knocked out, which helps. Styles make fights, though, and Joshua is still an explosive, big puncher. For me personally, I think Fury would win that with a late stoppage.”
