The meaning of Fury's mysterious words about ending his career is revealed

Former world heavyweight champion Tyson Fury (34-2-1, 24 KOs) announced his retirement after two defeats to Oleksandr Usyk (23-0, 14 KOs). In his address, the Gypsy King used a mysterious idiom to hint that he disagreed with the results of his fights with the Ukrainian.

Explaining his decision, Fury said: "I want to end with this: Dick Turpin was wearing a mask," Metro.co.uk writes. The journalist explains that Dick Turpin was a famous robber of the first half of the 18th century who was executed in 1739 at the age of only 33.

His image has been romanticized in several works, and the expression "Dick Turpin wore a mask" means a hint that while the criminal tried to hide his identity, others committed their offenses openly. Thus, Tyson again claimed robbery in his fights with Usyk.

Immediately after the rematch with the Ukrainian, Fury said that he won the fight in several rounds and disagreed with the judges' decision. And the Briton explained his defeat in the first fight against Usyk by the war in our country.

It's important to note that Tyson has already announced his retirement twice. In 2017, he announced that he was retiring from boxing after defeating Volodymyr Klychko, and in 2022, he defeated Dillian Whyte (30-3, 20 KOs). After those announcements, Fury returned to the ring a few months later.
