'The Gypsy King' hung up his gloves once again in January after suffering back-to-back defeats to Oleksandr Usyk in Saudi Arabia.

Saudi boxing chief Turki Alalshikh recently revealed that he is currently negotiating a three-fight deal with Fury, who was undefeated before losing to Usyk.
And there were three names on the Brit's list when iFL TV asked him to list match-ups that would motivate him to box again.
Fury said: "Well, don't hold your breath, it's not going to be this year, but it might be next year.
"If I get the right offer, it might be 2026. If it turns me on, then I will come back.
"But if there is no turn on, I will stay retired. Anthony Joshua, Oleksandr Usyk, Daniel Dubois, any of them or maybe all of them."
Fury won't be able to make a comeback until next year due to his ongoing commitments to various projects with Netflix.
The two-time world heavyweight champion is currently in the middle of filming a documentary about his family life as well as the second series of At Home With The Furys.
Once that's wrapped up, Alalshikh intends to start sowing the seeds for a mouth-watering all-British showdown between Fury and Joshua.
Alalshikh recently told The Boxing Voice: "Anthony Joshua and Tyson Fury next year, we are trying to do it and we are thinking about it."
Before Usyk knockout Dubois inside five rounds on Saturday, Fury appeared at a boxing event at BOXPARK where he confirmed to fans that he would indeed return.
He previously said: "I do miss it, every single day I wake up in the morning and miss it. I've been away seven months, missed it everyday. I'm open to offers at the moment."
"The takeover! I'm gonna be 37 in about three weeks so I'm going to be the oldest swinger with all these young boys coming up it's going to be difficult."
A trilogy with Usyk is Fury's priority, but it will depend on the Ukrainian's plans for the future.
The three-time undisputed king did name Fury to the crowd when listing who he should fight next, also including Derek Chisora, AJ and Joseph Parker in the line-up.
Parker, 33, has been named as the mandatory challenger for 38-year-old's Usyk's IBO world heavyweight title.
