Tyson Fury return to boxing confirmed with date apparently set for Oleksandr Usyk trilogy fight
Tyson Fury will come out of retirement to return to the ring in 2026 and has teased a third fight with Oleksandr Usyk in April of next year. Fury has been retired from boxing since last December after suffering a second successive loss to unified heavyweight world champion Usyk. He had long been linked with a British super fight against Anthony Joshua before hanging up the gloves, even after a second points defeat to the Ukrainian. But despite reiterating his stance to remain retired as recently as May, underlining how he was 'happy' with his decision and in 'no rush' to return to the ring, he posted on Instagram a date for his return revealing he will fight Usyk for a third time on April 18. On Wednesday, Saudi boxing supremo Turki Alalshikh announced that Fury would be making a comeback but didn't reveal his opponent. He said: "I talked with him, and I have his word to have him in Riyadh Season in 2026. We have a rabbit to hunt.' While Alalshikh did not elaborate on who the opponent might be, Fury often referred to Usyk as an 'ugly rabbit' in an ugly war of words throughout their two-fight rivalry which led to speculation that they would fight each other again. Fury took charge of the England side as manager for the charity football match Soccer Aid last month, with the hosts suffering a 5-4 defeat at Old Trafford. Fury's rival Usyk is set to defend his belts in a bid to become undisputed champion once again when he rematches Daniel Dubois, who holds the IBF title, at Wembley Stadium on 19 July. Dubois scuppered a potential mega fight between Joshua and Fury when he knocked out 'AJ' last September, with the 'Gypsy King' left stunned ringside. Fury has been enjoying retirement this year with regular trips around the world, including trips to Como, Italy. It was in the Lombardy town that Fury moved to end speculation of a return to the ring this summer, stating in May: 'I hear a lot of talk of 'The Gypsy King' returning to boxing and I ask the question of this one: for what? What would I return for? 'More boxing belts? Won 22 of them. I've been rumped, they've had their use for me. But I'm happy, contented with what I've done, what I've achieved, what I've accomplished. 'I've been around the world and back again and here we are, this is what retirement looks like for the Gypsy King. Not too shabby. I'm in no rush at all to go back to boxing and get my face punched in, for what? What would I return for? 'So here we are, I'm retired and I'm staying retired. I've got nothing to prove to anybody and nothing to return for. God bless you all and see you on the other side.'

Who was Andre Silva who died alongside Liverpool star Diogo Jota in Lamborghini 'fireball' crash?
Liverpool star Diogo Jota and his 26-year-old footballer brother Andre Silva both died in a fireball crash in the early hours of this morning. The brothers had been travelling in a Lamborghini when it veered off the road, rolled and burst into flames on the A-52 at Cernadilla near Zamora in northwestern Spain. It is believed the supercar's tyre burst while it was overtaking another vehicle at around 12.35am near to border of Portugal.

But from there, their career paths took different trajectories with Jota playing for Atletico Madrid and Wolves before securing a £40m move to Liverpool in 2020. Andre, himself a talented attacking midfielder, would instead stay in the lower leagues of his native country where for the last five years he had played for second division side Penafiel. Jota had risen through the Portuguese ranks alongside his brother Andre, with them both playing together at FC Porto Unlike his elder brother, Andre kept his family name, with Diogo opting for Jota so as not to be confused with other Silvas, according to This Is Anfield. It is not known if Andre had a partner or any children, but he had remained close with his brother with the pair pictured on Instagram enjoying a holiday together back in 2020. Penafiel released a tribute to Andre on its website in which the club said it had declared an official mourning. A statement read: 'Futebol Clube Penafiel expresses its deepest condolences for the tragic death of André Silva and his brother Diogo Jota, victims of a traffic accident that occurred in the last few hours.

'At this difficult time, Futebol Clube Penafiel extends its most sincere condolences to the family, friends and all those who shared moments of life and passion for sport with André and Diogo. 'The club will declare official mourning and pay tribute at upcoming sporting events. 'Rest in peace.' The Lamborghini crash happened on the A-52 in the province of Zamora. The Spanish road is a key route taken by drivers after leaving northern Portugal as they head for the ports of Santander and Bilbao or drive north-east towards France. Emergency services in the Castilla and Leon region confirmed the crash and two fatalities at around 12.35am on Thursday morning. Diogo and Andre's deaths were confirmed by the Portuguese Football Federation. 'The 1-1-2 Castilla y León operations room received several calls reporting a vehicle accident at Km. 65 of the A-52, in the municipality of Cernadilla, Zamora.

The tragic news comes just two weeks after Jota married his long-term girlfriend Rute Cardoso in Porto, his home city. The Portuguese national football team have said they are ' devastated' by the death of Liverpool forward Diogo, adding that he 'was not only a fantastic player with almost 50 caps for the national team, but also an extraordinary person who was respected by all his teammates and opponents'. His death was confirmed by Pedro Proenca, head of the Portuguese Football Federation. He said in a statement: 'The Portuguese Football Federation and all of Portuguese football are completely devastated by the deaths of Diogo Jota and André Silva, this morning, in Spain. 'Much more than an amazing player, with almost 50 internationalizations for the National A Team, Diogo Jota was an extraordinary person, respected by all teammates and opponents, someone with an infectious joy and a reference in the community itself. 'On my behalf, and on behalf of the Portuguese Football Federation, I express my deepest condolences to the family and friends of Diogo and André Silva, as well as Liverpool FC and FC Penafiel, the clubs where, respectively, lined up the players. 'The Portuguese Football Federation has already asked UEFA for a minute's silence, this Thursday, before the match of our national team with Spain, in the women's European Championship. 'Lost to two champs. The disappearance of Diogo and Andre Silva represent irreparable losses for Portuguese football and we will do everything to, daily, honor their legacy'.

Saudi's Alalshikh says Fury will return in 2026
July 3 (Reuters) - Former world heavyweight champion Tyson Fury will come out of retirement and return to the ring next year, according to Turki Alalshikh, the chairman of Saudi Arabia's General Entertainment Authority. Fury, 36, called time on his career in January after losing his rematch for the WBA (Super), WBO and WBC world heavyweight titles against Ukrainian Oleksandr Usyk. "The 'Gypsy King' will be back!!! I talked with him, and I have his word to have him in Riyadh Season in 2026 ... We have a rabbit to hunt!" Alalshikh posted on social media alongside a picture of him shaking hands with Fury. Fury, whose last three fights were in Saudi Arabia, reacted to the post by writing: "Let's see what 2025 brings" along with dollar signs, a winking face and laughing emojis. He also spoke to reporters at an International Boxing Association event in Istanbul on Wednesday, naming Usyk as the boxer he most wanted to fight if he returned to the ring. "Who would I rather fight, right now? Usyk. Because I want my revenge in England," he said. "I don't believe I've got a fair shout the last two times. That's all I want. I want a fair shout, and I don't believe I've got a fair shout the last two times. "That's the one I want, but if I don't get that then it'd be (Anthony) Joshua, the biggest British fight that will ever happen."
