I want to fight him and if I'm not fighting Tyson Fury, I'm not fighting at all.&quot;‘The Gypsy King’ last fought in April, knocking out Dillian Whyte to defend his WBC belt. He then announced his intention to retire from professional boxing. However, following Usyk’s victory he appeared to suggest in a social media post that he would return to the ring.
