Fury, 35, returns next Saturday in a crossover clash against ex-UFC champion Francis Ngannou, 37, in Saudi Arabia.

And he already has a signed agreement to face Oleksandr Usyk, 36, in an undisputed title decider afterwards.

But Fury hopes that is just the start of another long stint in the sport.

He told ESPN: “I’m looking to sign another ten-fight deal after this, so I don’t know, I’m going to put my feelers out there and see who I can get the best deal off for another ten fights.

“What else is there? I retire, plenty of money, plenty of achievement, whatever – 35. What am I going to do?

“This makes me f***ing happy, fighting. This is all I’ve ever done and all that’s ever made me happy.

“So it’d be stupid now to walk away from it when I’m making millions of dollars and getting loads of joy from it as well.”

Fury shocked the world in 2015 when he dethroned long-reigning champion Wladimir Klitschko in a famous upset.

But he fell into depression soon after and relinquished his belts amid a battle with alcohol and substance abuse.

It sparked one of the greatest comebacks in sporting history as, in 2018, he would return and win the world title two years later.

But Fury has spoken out about struggling without boxing being in his life – and wife Paris believes it could keep him in the ring into his 40s.

She told Fabulous Magazine: “Deep down I can imagine him going until he’s 40.

“I don’t want him to, but he’s still young and at the top of his game, but he has to stop eventually.

“He needs to find what he likes and put his passion into something else.

“I don’t know what that is, because he’s spoken about opening a boxing gym and helping the younger generation.

“But he needs something that will fill the void of 100,000 people cheering his name.”
