Tyson Fury insists retirement is not on his mind as he prepares to face Anthony Joshua in Cardiff, Wales, on December 11.
Now 38, Fury has even suggested he could fight another 11 times after the heavyweight showdown, which many have predicted could bring the curtain down on both fighters' careers.
Fury has been a professional since 2008. Seven years later he claimed three heavyweight belts when he upset longstanding champion Wladimir Klitschko. In 2020, Fury began his second reign when he defeated Deontay Wilder to win the WBC belt.
Fury, of course, has a history of saying one thing and doing another. He has announced his retirement five times, each time promising never to fight again, only to eventually reverse his decision.
Now, it seems, he is looking further ahead than ever.
"I'm going to continue," Fury told WSVN Miami.
"I've got two fights left on my contract.
"I'll finish the contract off and then probably sign another 10-fight deal. Who knows?
"If the money's right, [I'll] sign another 10 fights, but they've got to be quick because I'm getting older.
"And when it's gone, it's gone. I'm coming up to fight No. 40."
Fury, 36-2-1 (25 KOs), ended his latest hiatus in April when he returned to outpoint Arslanbek Makhmudov before stopping Mariusz Wach three months later.
Prior to that comeback, Fury had not fought since suffering consecutive defeats to Oleksandr Usyk in 2024.
