According to several reports, former world heavyweight champion Tyson Fury is a free agent no more
‘The Gypsy King’ has apparently signed with Frank Warren as reported by The Independent and The Daily Mail.
The former WBO, WBA, IBF, IBO and Ring Magazine heavyweight champion has not seen any action inside the ring since defeating Wladimir Klitschko in 2015 in front of a packed Dusseldorf audience in Germany.

Yesterday evening Frank Warren Promotions announced a press conference for today and it’s expected that Warren will announce the signing of Fury.
The 29-year old boxer has been teasing fans with news of a major announcement for a while now. Fury is expected to make his comeback this year and eventually set his sights on the current unified heavyweight champion of the world, Anthony Joshua.
After his victory over Klitschko, Fury failed a drugs test and tested positive for cocaine. He then announced his retirement from boxing until officially confirming his comeback late last year.
Fury has openly admitted that he struggled with depression and during the tumultuous two years he became seriously overweight as well which caused concern among fans.
However, with the help of new coach Ben Davison and a strict training regime, Fury has managed to get back to his fighting weight as seen on social media.
