He concluded the Twitter statement with: "See you all on the other side, you big dossers."
It is the latest U-turn in a tumultuous week for the world heavyweight champion, who only announced his return to the ring on Tuesday.

However, earlier this week Fury unveiled Isaac Lowe as his new coach ahead of what he hoped would be a legacy-defining third bout with Derek Chisora.
An offer had been extended to Chisora according to an ESPN source, with Fury pressing for the fight to take place at Old Trafford.

Peter Debruge Chief Film CriticIn “My Neighbor Adolf,” a Polish Holocaust survivor living in South America suspects that the belligerent German who’s just moved in next door could be none other than der Führer himself. How could that be? Hitler committed suicide in his bunker at the end of the war. Or did he? Director Leon Prudovsky’s middling mind game pits David Hayman and prolific German character actor Udo Kier against one another in what could have been a sly, “Sleuth”-style two-hander.

David Baddiel says ‘Three Lions’ Euros song could be retired as England Women’s team “have reset the clock”
The Lightning Seeds could be “put to bed” after the England Women’s team’s Euro 2022 victory.The comedian said in a new interview that the song, which had become part of the fabric of English football culture after decades without an international tournament win, could be less of a staple in cheering on players in future fixtures.“The women have reset the clock,” Baddiel told BBC Radio 4’s Today programme (via The Guardian) after the win, which erased 56 years of England failing to secure a trophy.‘Three Lions (Football’s Coming Home)’ was released in May 1996 to mark that year’s UEFA European Championship (aka the Euros), which England was hosting.The lyric “30 years of hurt” in the chorus was a reflection on the fact that England hadn’t won a trophy since triumphing against West Germany in the 1966 FIFA World Cup.When asked if it was now time to retire the song as well as decades of gloomy expectations, Baddiel said: “I’m very happy to think the song would, in a way, be put to bed.” He added, however, that fans may feel differently the next time England loses.“It was beautiful to hear it sung out of Wembley [on Sunday] as we finally clinched a final, I really did think that would never happen,” Baddiel added. “It’s so amazing to actually think, ‘Oh, we’ve won, this doesn’t happen, it’s actually happened.’”The England Women’s football team gatecrashed their coach Sarina Wiegman’s press conference after the match on Sunday (July 31), singing the anthem as they danced about and climbed on top of tables.
