Tyson Fury has revealed the reason his retirement was so short-lived was because he felt he had no purpose in life without boxing.

Fury announced he was walking away from the sport in April after his victory over Dillian Whyte at Wembley but proceeded to reverse the decision on a number of occasions before an eventual bout with Derek Chisora was confirmed for December 3.
