Tyson Fury<\/a> has no plans to retire from boxing just yet despite suffering his second professional defeat to Oleksandr Usyk<\/a> on Saturday night.<\/p>\n

Fury was seeking revenge on Usyk after his razor-thin defeat in February but tasted defeat again in Saudi Arabia, as all three judges scored the fight 116-112 in favour of the Ukrainian<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The Gypsy King later vented at the judges’ scorecards<\/a>, describing them as a ‘Christmas gift’ for Usyk, but skirted around questions surrounding his future in the sport.<\/p>\n

‘You might see me fight again, you might not,’ he cryptically told reporters shortly after his fight.<\/p>\n

The Brit has now returned to the United Kingdom where he will spend Christmas with his family having been away in training camp for the past three months.<\/p>\n

However, according to The Sun,<\/a> Fury, who has made well over \u00a3100 million in his last two bouts<\/a>, has no plans to retire just yet and has told close friends: ‘It\u2019s not over.’<\/p>\n

While the 36-year-old is unlikely to pursue a third fight for Usyk having lost the rematch, Fury now reportedly has his sites set on a domestic dust-up with Antony Joshua.<\/p>\n

Joshua\u2019s next opponent is yet to be confirmed following his defeat to Daniel Dubois in September<\/a>, but AJ will not go straight into a rematch with Dubois who is now set to fight Joseph Parker in February.<\/p>\n

And with both British heavyweights looking for a dance partner, the road could finally be paved for a huge grudge fight at Wembley in 2025.<\/p>\n

It\u2019s the biggest fight probably in the history of British boxing,’ Hearn said after Fury’s loss last weekend.<\/p>\n<p>‘Everyone will always want to see it. For me, AJ against Fury is the one, it\u2019s the one at Wembley. It will be a huge global event.’<\/p>\n<p>A two-fight deal between the two Brits has been mooted which could see both fighters rake in more than \u00a3100m each.<\/p>\n<p>Fury’s promoter Frank Warren, meanwhile, told SunSport: ‘It\u2019s what people will want to watch. The Fury-Joshua fight is a great fight and if it \u00adhappens it will be a mega fight, it will be brilliant. <\/p>\n<p>‘But it will only happen if Tyson wants to do it and that\u2019s a big if. And if he doesn\u2019t want to do it, then so be it.’<\/p>\n<p class=\"\"><strong>For more stories like this,\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/metro.co.uk\/sport\/\" data-type=\"URL\" data-id=\"https:\/\/metro.co.uk\/sport\/\">check our sport page<\/a><\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p class=\"\"><strong>Follow Metro Sport for the latest news on <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/sportmetro\">Facebook<\/a>,\u00a0<\/strong><a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/Metro_Sport\">Twitter<\/a>\u00a0and\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/metrosportuk\/\">Instagram<\/a><\/strong>.<\/p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Tyson Fury has faced calls to quit (Picture: Getty) Tyson Fury has no plans to retire from boxing just yet despite suffering his second professional defeat to Oleksandr Usyk on Saturday night.
