Tyson Fury is set to end his retirement from boxing and make a stunning comeback as Turki Alalshikh has released a bombshell statement.
Fury called time on his legendary boxing career last December following his second consecutive defeat to Oleksandr Usyk.
He had lost to Usyk by split decision last May for undisputed status before losing the rematch.
At the start of the year, Fury retired from the sport.

Speaking in a clip posted on social media, he said: "Hi everybody, I'm going to make this short and sweet, I'd like to announce my retirement from boxing. It's been a blast. I've loved every single minute of it."
However, just months after retiring from the sport, Fury is set to make his comeback in a blockbuster showdown.

Saudi boxing chief Alalshikh took to social media to announce Fury's retirement U-turn, revealing he has spoken to him about his ring return.

And he seemingly referenced a trilogy bout against Usyk.
On X, he wrote: "The 'Gypsy King' will be back!!! I talked with him, and I have his word to have him in Riyadh Season in 2026 ... We have a rabbit to hunt!"

Usyk boasts two victories over Fury and defends his WBA (super), WBC and WBO world heavyweight titles against IBF champion Daniel Dubois later this month.

If Usyk beats Dubois on July 19, then he'd likely have to face a mandatory challenger, paving the way for a third meeting against Fury in the first half of 2026.
The self-proclaimed 'Gypsy King' is hellbent on running it back with Usyk but would also settle for domestic rival Anthony Joshua in what would be the biggest fight in British boxing history.
Asked who he would want to fight out of Usyk and Joshua, the 36-year-old told Boxing News: "Who would I rather fight right know? Usyk. Because I want my revenge in England. That's all I want. I want a fair shout and I don't believe I've got a fair shout the last two times. That's the one I want."
Speaking before Alalshikh's announcement, he added: "But if I don't get that, then it'd be Joshua. The biggest British fight that will ever happen and it would break all records, and it would sell out 100,000 at Wembley in an hour. And it's a fight that I think can happen, for sure... if I decide to come back."
Oleksandr Usyk is open to a third fight vs Tyson Fury
Even though Usyk has emerged victorious twice against Fury, he would entertain a third fight.

"Right now my focus is on Daniel Dubois and that is what I am working towards," he said last April. "But, for my last fight, I have two options. Anthony Joshua and Tyson Fury."
Pressed on which boxer he would prefer to face, Usyk replied: "Tyson Fury."
