Bob Arum doesn't believe we've seen the last of Tyson Fury

Legendary boxing promoter Bob Arum doesn't believe Tyson Fury's weekend victory is his last.

Fury stopped British rival Dillian Whyte in the 6th round of their Wembley sell-out clash.

The WBC heavyweight champion announced his retirement from the sport immediately after the contest.

Arum says seeds were planted for a unification fight with fellow champ Oleksandr Usyk at his 90th birthday party.

"They took that picture of Usyk on one side and Fury on the other side, with me in the middle", Arum told Sky Sports News.

"Hopefully that picture becomes a picture that will highlight the confrontation between those two great heavyweights."

It's likely that much will depend on the result of Usyk's potential clash with Anthony Joshua.

With that fight expected to take place in late July.
