Tyson Fury<\/a> insists his return to the boxing ring (again) has nothing to do with money — he claims it’s all about the love for the fight game.<\/p>\n

The 34-2 heavyweight boxer explained his fifth comeback on Tuesday via Instagram … claiming the payday from the sport wasn’t what inspired him to return.<\/p>\n

“For me, there’s nothing else other than the fight game,” the 37-year-old said. “I love this fight game. It’s not for financial gain.”<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

“I could’ve retired 10 years ago — made an absolute fortune. It’s not about the money, although I always want a good deal, for sure. It’s mainly about the fight game, the sport.”<\/p>\n

Fury has earned a massive wealth throughout his career, with a reported<\/a> net worth of $160 million. Still, fans point to examples like Floyd Mayweather<\/a> — whose fortune is reportedly $400M, yet continues to compete in exhibition fights for whatever reasons he may have.<\/p>\n

Fury reiterates in the one-minute clip that his return is driven by his passion and need for fighting, claiming he has zero interest in anything else.<\/p>\n

“I was born and raised to fight. My destiny lies within the fight game,” Fury said. “At the end of it all, I’ll be punchier than a motherf***er, and I’ll probably end up in a wheelchair like the rest of them all.”<\/p>\n
