The only reason he would have to continue fighting is for the money.<\/p>\n<p>Fury said he <strong>after the fight with Whyte he will have more than \u00a3100 million in the bank<\/strong> and that\u2019s more than enough for him. The Gypsy King said he lives a very moderate lifestyle in Lancashire and does not have any costly habits that will cause him to burn his earnings. Fury says that he <strong>wants to walk away from boxing without any brain damage or injuries<\/strong> as he has six kids and wants to be there for them.<\/p>\n<p>Fury plans on making a Netflix documentary do some films in Hollywood, a few exhibition fights and continue to be a good husband and father. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.legitgambling.com\/sports-betting\/boxing\">If Fury wins against
