Heavyweight contender Tyson Fury is still maintaining that he plans to walk away from the sport after three more fights.
He is currently training to fight WBC world champion Deontay Wilder in a rematch on February 22 at the MGM Grand in Las Vegas.
There is a contractual clause that allows either boxer - regardless of the outcome - to exercise the option for an immediate third bout.
According to Fury, he will defeat Wilder - and then fight and beat Wilder again in a third fight (if Wilder exercises that option). After Wilder, Fury would then target a unification with IBF, IBO, WBA, WBO champion Anthony Joshua. After a win over Joshua, Fury would then have one more career ending fight.
In an interview from a few weeks ago, Fury had claimed that his career ending fight would come against top contender Dillian Whyte.
"I’ve got three more fights left. ‘Wilder next, Joshua then Dillian Whyte, then I’m out. Dillian has been mandatory for something like 2,000 days and hasn’t had a world title shot so when I beat Wilder I’ll give him a shot. He can be a defence, for sure. One of my last three. Wilder, Joshua, Whyte, done," Fury told IFL TV.
But now Fury has changed his tune. He no longer names Whyte as a career ending opponent - and now wants to face Derek Chisora in a trilogy bout. Fury has already beaten Chisora on two occasions.
"From boxing, I want nothing. I don’t want anything from boxing," Fury told BT Sport. "I’m happy just doing what I’m doing, ticking along nice and slowly and just take a few more scalps before I hang my gloves up. Three more. I’m going to knock Wilder out, then he’s not going to want a rematch. Then I’m going to fight Joshua and beat him too.
"Then I’ve always said to my old pal Derek Chisora I’d have a farewell fight with him, so maybe I get the Old Trafford fight with old Del Boy after all. Then it’s curtains on a fantastic career."
