TYSON FURY could snub a Battle of Britain with Anthony Joshua and hang up his gloves, his promoter Frank Warren has hinted.
A long-overdue domestic dust-up with AJ is on the table for the Gypsy King following his crushing second loss to Oleksandr Usyk last December.
Joshua is seemingly champing at the bit to put an end to the decade-long debate over who the better man is.
But Warren won't try to lure the former two-time champ to the ring for one last payday.
He wrote in his : "I will not be picking up the phone and asking Tyson Fury to fight again.
"If opportunities come my way for him they will be passed on, but there will be no advice from me on whether or not Tyson should take them.
"I haven’t spoken to him yet about an Anthony Joshua fight and I will only do so if he comes to me and says he wants to get in the ring with him."
Back-to-back defeats to slick southpaw Usyk have left Fury at a major career crossroads.
But SunSport exclusively revealed that the former WBC titleholder has told his nearest and dearest that his career's "not over" by any stretch of the imagination.
Warren will stand by whatever decision Fury makes over his fighting future and hopes the Wythenshawe warrior will be at peace with it.

He said: "My only hope is for Tyson to be happy and content with life.
"If he is then I’d be prouder than you can ever imagine.
"If he does decide to box again then I’ll support him 100%. It’s a decision for him, his wife Paris and their family."
Despite both men no longer being at the peak of their powers, a summer showdown between Fury and Joshua will still be a global blockbuster.
And AJ insists the now is the time for them to finally duke it out.
He said: "I've been involved in a whole lot of fights, but this has to happen in 2025.
“Of course, it has to happen, and hopefully, it does happen.”
