Teddy Atlas gives his assessment on Fury’s latest retirement.

“Yes [Tyson Fury fears retirement] because I think boxing stabilizes his life. I have a lot of respect for Tyson Fury. I think he’s a tremendous fighter and I think he’s a great symbol,” Atlas told CanadaCasino.Ca.

“I do think he’s afraid [to retire], because I think that having this in his life, having boxing, the structure of boxing, the discipline, the people around him in camp, is a reason to get up every day and be strong. He’s smart, he’s not dumb. He’s very smart.

“I think he realizes that it’s important in his life, but at some point, he has to learn to live life without the help of boxing.

“There has to come a day where it’s just you. And that day is here. He realized, he’s smart, he can’t box forever. And I think he’s worried about losing that guy.  That guy not being there with him to say ‘you can be strong’ and ‘you got to be strong, buddy’.I think he’s concerned about that, and I don’t blame him, and I pray for him.

“I pray for him that he can find his way without boxing.”
