Tyson Fury’s retirement — once again — may not last long. The former heavyweight champion could return for a 2026 trilogy fight against Oleksandr Usyk, with the sides “in talks” for the bout, according to The Athletic. The 36-year-old Fury most recently called it a career in January after losing to Usyk for the second consecutive time.

Fury announced his retirement from the sport in January, the fifth time he had indicated he was stepping away from the ring.

Tyson Fury's wish was seemingly granted. On Thursday, Fury announced that a trilogy fight between him and Oleksandr Usyk is set for April 18 at England's Wembley Stadium. Fury's announcement comes one day after Turki Alalshikh claimed the former unified heavyweight champion would end his short-lived retirement.
