Tyson Fury WILL try to fight again but 'will take money elsewhere' after another spray at the BBBOC
Tyson Fury insists he will attempt to get a boxing licence and return to the ring but not through the British Boxing Board of Control.
Fury appeared to announce his retirement again after saying on Twitter that he will not apply for renewed accreditation to fight.
He wrote: "After thinking long & hard about my return I will not be applying for a BBBOC boxing license. After they way they have handled stuff. No thanks."
But he's since attempted to clarify his position, saying he will take his "money and business elsewhere".
Fury has not fought for nearly two years since ending Wladimir Klitschko's world heavyweight title reign in Dusseldorf in November 2015.
He twice postponed rematches with Klitschko last year before losing his boxing licence last October when he admitted he was using cocaine and struggling with depression.
Fury had hoped to return to the ring earlier this year but that plan was scuppered when his National Anti-Doping Panel hearing was adjourned in May.
"Make it clear, I'll not apply to the BBBOC for a new licence I'll go elsewhere, take my money & business to somewhere that appreciate it," he posted on Wednesday night
Fury was at ringside last month when his cousin Hughie Fury came up short in his bid to take the WBO heavyweight title from champion Joseph Parker in Manchester.
He hit out at officials after his cousin lost on points.
After Fury's initial tweet on Wednesday afternoon, his uncle Peter Fury said he would also "look to withdraw" his son Hughie as well in a reply.
