Frank Warren reveals Tyson Fury's new project alongside Netflix show that means Gypsy King CAN'T make boxing comeback
TYSON FURY won't return to the ring this year because of a little-known contractual commitment, promoter Frank Warren has revealed. And it's NOT the Gypsy King's filming of the latest instalment of ' At Home with the Furys '. 5 5 5 Season two of the hit Netflix show is currently being filmed, with Fury giving behind-the-scenes updates on its progress on his Instagram. But that isn't stopping the former two-time heavyweight champion from preparing for his ring return, which he paved the way for in April. Fury does, however, have a separate documentary in the pipeline with the streaming giants has put the brakes on a 2025 comeback for the Wythenshawe warrior. Queensberry Promotion's chief Warren told The Ring Magazine earlier this week: 'I spoke to him over the weekend very briefly "And he's doing what he's always doing, which is in the gym training.' If Tyson's at the gym, how and why is Netflix stopping him from returning to boxing? 'He's not coming back this year because he has commitments on Netflix with the 'At Home With The Furys 2' and he's doing a documentary also for Netflix. "Then, after that, he will come back and we'll discuss who he's going to fight and so forth."

The former WBC king felt hard done by the judges and refused to fight again, although he's since called for a trilogy fight with his Ukrainian rival. Tyson Fury's latest comeback antics is all part of a Netflix script to lead up to Anthony Joshua fight claims insider Boxing fans, however, want to see Fury finally settle the score with long-time rival Anthony Joshua in a blockbuster Battle of Britain. But Fury's sights are seemingly solely set on reducing the deficit in his series with Usyk, which he claims is on course to take place at Wembley on April 18. He said: "The all-British fight with Joshua will be big. "And if we both go to our grave - without having fought each other - it would be a travesty for British boxing. "But I feel like, what I really want is revenge. 'But I only want to fight Oleksandr Usyk at Wembley, in front of 100,000 people, and lift all the belts. That would be my dream. 'My second dream would be that massive fight with Anthony Joshua. 'I am a prize fighter first and foremost. So, if the money is right, then we can do a deal. If the money is right, then it's a deal.' 5

Tyson Fury slaps Usyk's face on SEX DOLL and sends rival X-rated message after performing retirement U-turn
TYSON FURY has been getting to grips with an Oleksandr Usyk faced SEX DOLL just hours after hinting a trilogy fight with his rival is in the pipeline. The Gypsy King seemingly performed a U-turn on his fifth retirement from boxing on Thursday by revealing an apparent date for a third showdown with his two-time conqueror. 4 4 4 Fury, 36, is adamant he was robbed of victory in the back-to-back Riyadh rumbles with the slick southpaw, which earned him a pretty penny. And he's seemingly trying to get an early handle on the elusive Olympian ahead of what would be a shock third showdown by plastering his face on a blow-up sex doll. The former two-time unified heavyweight champion posted a video of himself holding the clothes-less doll with a picture of Usyk's face on it to his Instagram account. After manager Spencer Brown claimed he'd been to the "sex shop", Fury replied: "I've got myself a little Usyk. "I'm getting ready for when we fight in April 26. In the meantime, he's gonna get f****d." His accompanying caption for the video read: "Just getting ready for @usykaa fight. "But in the meanwhile, i'll be at it 🤣😜🤣🤣🤣😎#livinglife." 4 Fury announced his fifth retirement from the sport in January, just a matter of weeks after his second straight defeat to Usyk. In the months which followed, the Wythenshawe warrior repeatedly shut down the prospect of setting foot inside the ring again and insisted he was content with his achievements. Tyson Fury and Jake Paul's text messages leaked with money brother Tommy has been offered for rematch revealed But earlier this week, he roared: I want my revenge (on Usyk) in England. "That's all 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 will be Joshua, the biggest British fight that will ever happen. "It would break all records and sell out 100,000 at Wembley in an hour. "It's a fight that I think can happen for sure if I decide to come back and the deal's right." Discussing a third option of taking on Dubiois, Fury added: "If I was to return and fight Dubois, he wouldn't land a glove on me, it would be a one-sided beatdown. "But I wish him luck in his fight against Usyk, but I would annihilate him." Usyk will be back in action on July 19, taking on IBF titleholder Daniel Dubois at Wembley for all the heavyweight marbles.

Tyson Fury officially most financially successful UK sportsman in history as his massive earnings are revealed
TYSON FURY has long been considered one of the wealthiest sportsmen in the UK. And the emergence of some of the Wythenshawe warrior's stunning finances has shown him to be the wealthiest UK sportsman in history. 3 The unaudited abridged accounts for the former two-time heavyweight champion's ' Tyson Fury Ltd' company up until last September were recently published on Companies House. And it shows that the Gypsy King's self-named company is worth a whopping £186million. A staggering £176,691,66 of that figure is made up of investments, with £7,512,199 consisting of cash at the bank and in hand. The remainder is made up of stocks and debtors. The value of Fury's company is likely considerably higher given the fact that the accounts were filed before his multi-million-pound rematch with Oleksandr Usyk last December. SunSport understands Fury pocketed upwards of £80m for his first defeat to the pound-for-pound king last May. His purse for the Riyadh rematch is understood to have been less than that figure, but still large enough to exponentially increase the value of his company. Another cash injection could soon be on the way as Fury has seemingly performed a U-turn on his fifth retirement from boxing. JOIN SUN VEGAS: GET £50 BONUS 3 On Thursday, he posted a photo of himself in action against Usyk to his Instagram story with the caption: "April 18 2026, Wembley Stadium. The trilogy!" His post came hours after he told the media in Turkey:" I want my revenge (on Usyk) in England. That's all 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 will be [Anthony] Joshua, the biggest British fight that will ever happen. "It would break all records and sell out 100,000 at Wembley in an hour. "It's a fight that I think can happen for sure if I decide to come back and the deal's right."
