‘Unbeatable’ Fury determined to stick to retirement pledge

Associated Press  

LONDON — Sitting in nothing but some tight-fitting shorts, Tyson Fury grabbed the flabby part of his belly and started shaking it. “I’m a normal-looking man,” he said, “an average Joe.” No one quite mixes self-deprecation with self-promotion quite like this world heavyweight champion. “I’m very proud I’ve won two English titles, two British titles, two Commonwealth titles, the Irish title, the European title, WBO intercontinental, WBO international, WBO super, WBA super, IBF, IBO, Ring Magazine, lineal, WBC — I’ve won every belt there is to win. There is one final level that might, in the coming days, start to nag away at the man who says he is retiring as “the best heavyweight there has ever been.” Could Fury really turn down the chance of holding all the heavyweight titles and becoming undisputed champion of the world? “I’ve given everything … and put it on the line every single time,” Fury said, “but enough is enough.” ___ More AP boxing: https://apnews.com/hub/boxing and https://twitter.com/AP_Sports ___ Steve Douglas is at https://twitter.com/sdouglas80
