TYSON FURY claims he will RETIRE with £150million banked after his Wembley showdown with Dillian Whyte.
The 33-year-old WBC champion unveiled a five-fight plan before his iconic trilogy win over Deontay Wilder in October.

But the eccentric Gypsy King reckons he will now retire undefeated after fending off Whyte and leave AJ, Usyk and the rest of the world wanting more.
He said: “This is the final fight of my career. I am retiring after this.
“I’ll have £150m in the bank, still be healthy, young and good-looking.
“I am going to buy a massive yacht abroad to go with the super-cars and properties I have all over the world.
“I am going to sit back with a hot blonde and a pina colada thinking ‘you know what, I f***ing made it. Boom!’

“I’ll sling some baby oil on and get a tan, that’s what world champions do.”
Fury was the first press conference to announce his upcoming clash with Whyte at Wembley today.
But the Brixton ‘Body Snatcher’ failed to show, as the pair’s bitter rift over purses continue.
Whyte instead decided to stay at his Portuguese training camp where he is planning the heavyweight champ’s downfall.
