    Former heavyweight champion Tyson Fury took to Twitter last Monday to say that he’ll be resuming his career on May 13, but it looks like the 28-year-old spoke too soon. According to the British Boxing Board of Control (BBBofC), Fury is still under suspension and he’s not about to get his license to fight back anytime soon. Fury has an anti-doping hearing that he needs to get out of the way before the BBBoC will consider giving him back his license.

    Judging by Fury’s posts on social media on Monday, he appears to want to get back in the ring and resume his career. He’s been out of the ring for close to 2 years now since he pulled off a major upset in defeating former IBF/IBO/WBA/WBO heavyweight champion Wladimir Klitschko by a 12 round decision in November 2015. Fury could have made massive amounts of money in a rematch with Wladimir if he’d taken it. Fury gave up most of his heavyweight titles.
