Tyson Fury kicks off his fourth retirement at Disneyland as heavyweight boxer visits French theme park with wife Paris and their seven children

Tyson Fury kicks off his fourth retirement at Disneyland as heavyweight boxer visits French theme park with wife Paris and their seven children

Retirement began at the most magical place on earth as Tyson Fury visited Disneyland with his family on Monday. 

The heavyweight boxer, who announced his retirement following a second consecutive defeat to Oleksandr Usyk, accompanied wife Paris and their seven children during a trip to the sprawling French theme park. 

Taking to Instagram, Paris, 35, shared a group pH๏τo of herself alongside Tyson, 36, and kids Venezuela, 15, Prince John James, 13, Prince Tyson II, eight, Valencia, seven, Prince Adonis, five, Athena, three, and Prince Rico, 22 months. 

Captioning the pH๏τo with a Walt Disney quote, she wrote: ‘If you can dream it, you can do it.’ 

Saudi Arabian boxing chief Turki Alalshikh has suggested he will try and talk Tyson  out of his latest retirement, but already has contingency plans for Anthony Joshua if a bout between the pair cannot be arranged.

Alalshikh, a member of the Saudi royal court and a major powerbroker behind the kingdom’s move into the sport, said he would give Fury some time but does not appear convinced that his decision to walk away is final.

The self-styled ‘Gypsy King’ announced his in-ring career was over after his recent defeat by Oleksandr Usyk but has made U-turns in the past after claiming he was retired.

Speaking on talkSPORT, Alalshikh said: ‘As a fan of boxing, I don’t like it. We want to see Tyson in more big fights, but I can understand his decision.

‘But over time this decision can change. I will support him and discuss it with him. I will leave him for some time to be with his family, then we can discuss it.’ 

A long-discussed clash with Joshua would generate enormous interest, and doubtless a huge payday if the 36-year-old could be tempted back.

Alalshikh, though, sH๏τ down the more outrageous claims about a possible purse and has already considered American Deontay Wilder as an alternative for Joshua.

‘A lot of rumours don’t help us. No-one will propose £500million for a fight, these numbers are incorrect,’ he said.

‘And if Tyson is not available why not Joshua and Wilder? If you want something about the British markets, I want to see Joshua and Wilder now.’

The former heavyweight champion called it quits for the fourth time in a short Instagram video shared with followers in January.

‘Hi everybody, I’m going to make this short and sweet. I’d like to announce my retirement from boxing,’ he said. 

In May 2024, Usyk handed the boxer his first career loss by split decision to spoil a career 34-0-1 record. 

Usyk subsequently won the rematch in December, and by claiming a unanimous decision he retained the WBA, WBO and WBC heavyweight championships. 

Tyson retired briefly in 2013, 2017 and 2022. Most recently, he defeated Dillian Whyte via sixth round technical knockout in April 2022 and declared it was his final bout.

But he returned to the ring in October 2023 to defeat Derek Chisora in a trilogy fight that was stopped late in the 10th round.
