Tyson Fury urged to retire and snub Anthony Joshua bout after Deontay Wilder win

Tyson Fury's dad has urged the British boxer to hang up his gloves to spend more time with wife Paris and their children. Fury had a stunning win over Deontay Wilder. The Gypsy King dropped the American in the third and fifth rounds before Wilder’s corner threw in the towel in the seventh session. WBC world heavyweight champion could face Anthony Joshua but his father reckons his son has achieved everything in the sport now and should retire for the sake of his family. Fury Snr told Good Morning Britain: "I want my son to retire now. He's done enough. It's been an uphill battle for him. He's done enough. I want him to pack it in now. "I think it's in the back of his mind. He can't do anymore. He's won every professional title. Enough is enough. There's more to life now. He's given it his all. He's got no more to prove. He's proved he's been a worthy champion from this country. He's been 13 years as a pro and he's always been the opponent. "Whatever he's gone into, it's been an uphill battle for him. He's 32 years old. He's got a young family and I do believe his children deserve their father. He's done enough and that's my opinion." Source: The Mirror
