Tyson Fury is just waiting for the right fight, according to Top Rank CEO Bob Arum. Arum has been alongside 'The Gypsy King' for a long time now, and he recently spoke about what Fury's plans for the future are. The 33-year-old announced his retirement after beating Dillian Whyte via TKO on April 23rd at Wembley Stadium.

In a recent interview with Fighthype.com, Bob Arum spoke about what Fury is planning:

"Well I think Fury is gonna wait to see how the Joshua fight comes out with Usyk and then he'll make a determination whether he wants to continue. Because other than fighting the winner of Joshua-Usyk, there's really nothing there that's really of interest to Tyson Fury. So we'll have to see."

Anthony Joshua is set to take on Oleksandr Usyk in a rematch. The last time the pair met, the Ukrainian completely dominated the Brit in his own backyard and was crowned the Unified Heavyweight Champion in just his third fight in the division. Many, including Fury's wife Paris Fury, believe that if 'AJ' is able to exact revenge on Usyk and win his titles back, he will be tempted to fight Joshua.

The pair have a very long history and have been looking to fight each other for a while now.
