Joshua Will Retire From Boxing After £150m Cardiff Clash –Fury
Tyson Fury has insisted he has no plans to retire following his highly anticipated showdown with Anthony Joshua, but believes his long-time rival will hang up his gloves after their blockbuster fight.
The British heavyweights are scheduled to settle their decade-long rivalry on December 11 at the Principality Stadium in Cardiff, with a reported £150 million prize purse on the line.

Speaking to WSVN Miami, the 38-year-old Fury expressed skepticism about Joshua’s willingness to take the fight in previous years, claiming the 2012 Olympic champion is now looking for a lucrative exit from the sport.
“I never thought it would happen,” Fury said. “I didn’t think he had the minerals to get in there with the ‘Gypsy King’… Four or five times he turned the fight down. At the end of his career now he wants a final payday. I’ll give it to him, no problem.”

While speculation surrounds the future of both fighters given their ages, Fury confirmed he intends to continue his career beyond December, while framing the event as a historic spectacle.
“What will fans see? They’ll see legendary fighters throwing down in their late 30s like all the greats did before,” Fury added. “Two modern-day gladiators throwing down. For pride, glory, and a whole lot of money.”
