Tyson Fury Reemerges from Retirement, 37 and Still Punching
In a surprise move that sent shockwaves through the boxing world, former heavyweight champion Tyson Fury has announced his return to the sport he thought was done. The 37-year-old Brit, who was last seen in action in December 2024 after losing to Oleksandr Usyk, seems to have gotten itchy feet and is now ready to throw his cap back on.
In a post announcing his comeback on social media, Fury boldly declared that "2026 is the year" - setting up the possibility of a long-awaited showdown with British rival Anthony Joshua. With his trademark wit and humor, Fury expressed his eagerness to get back in the ring, stating, "Been away for a while but I'm back now, 37 years old and still punching." The phrase, often used by amateur boxers on social media, is a testament to Fury's confidence in his abilities.
Fury's last fight saw him lose to Usyk, but he has been unbeaten in 35 bouts prior to that. His impressive record includes two world titles won - one against Wladimir Klitschko and the other against Deontay Wilder. Fury has proven himself to be a formidable opponent, having claimed the WBC title.
However, his comeback is not without controversy. With Joshua now potentially facing uncertainty due to an injury sustained in a fatal car crash earlier this week, Fury may find himself on the opposite side of the ring from his British rival. The prospect of a fight with Usyk or WBO champion Fabio Wardley remains on the horizon.
Fury's decision to come out of retirement once again highlights the allure and unpredictability of boxing. Can he still mount a title challenge? Will Joshua take advantage of Fury's late return to reclaim the top spot? Only time will tell, but one thing is certain - Tyson Fury is back in the mix, ready to put his fists where his mouth is and prove that 37 is not too old for him to be the best.

! I mean, 37 is no joke, but at the same time, he's got an incredible record and still packing a punch. As a parent, I'd want my own child to chase their dreams, even if it means taking some calculated risks 
. But what really gets me is how this news might affect Joshua... poor kid's already dealing with an injury 
! Can we get a showdown between these two legends? That would be EPIC!!! 
️
He's still got that fire in his belly and a reputation for being one of the toughest guys in the ring. And can you imagine the rivalry between him and Anthony Joshua now? 
It's like the ultimate showdown! Plus, think about all the underdog stories he's been on – from struggling with mental health to becoming a two-time world champion... this guy's got heart, for sure 
. Now, I know some people might say 37 is old for boxing, but I think Fury's still got it in him. He's not just about being young and fast; he's about skill, experience, and willpower 
. Bring it on, Tyson!
? also, what's up with anthony joshua's injury tho? hopefully he recovers ASAP...
its like tyson fury is def a legend come back to life lol i remember when he was last active in boxing and now hes making a comeback at 37 thats insane! 
he's still got that confident attitude and sense of humor which makes him so lovable to watch. anyway gotta keep an eye on this potential fight with anthony joshua or usyk, whoever gets the chance to face tyson fury will be one lucky boxer 
, boxing is a young man's game, but you can't deny Fury's skills - he's got two world titles under his belt and that's not easy to do! The thing that has me intrigued is who he'll face next... Joshua's injury could be huge timing-wise 
, but at the same time, it creates an opening for Fury to make a statement. I'm curious to see how his training camp goes - has he got what it takes to dethrone Usyk or Wladier? Either way, this is gonna be interesting! 
. With Josh potentially facing an injury, it's like the universe decided to set up this epic showdown 
. And can you imagine Fury vs Usyk? That would be a FIGHT 
! I'm all about underdog stories, so let's see if Fury can pull off another title win 
. Time will tell, but one thing's for sure - boxing is back and better than ever 
and he's always been one of my fave fighters in the ring 
he's got a good shot at goin after anthony joshua now that joshua's deal might get messed up 
but gotta wonder if his comeback is more about the drama than actually trainin hard 
and people r goin wild about it! 
️ at 37, he's been out for a bit but not as long as some folks think 
. his record speaks for itself btw 
two world titles under his belt and an unbeaten streak of like 35 matches 
.
we all know fury's got the skills 
or will this be a title fight to remember 
. one thing's for sure, boxing fans are in for a treat 
!
I'm kinda surprised he's comin' out of retirement again, 'specially at 37! He's got a good record, but boxing's gotten so much tougher since he last fought, you know? 
. But 2026 is gonna be a wild ride with all these fighters on the scene - Joshua, Usyk, Wardley... it's anyone's game 
He was always an underdog but he proved himself as one of the toughest opponents in the game. With Joshua potentially out, Fury might just sneak up on the Brit and take the title 
This comeback is giving me major excitement vibes, can't wait to see how it all plays out
