Fury officially hung up his gloves in August but eventually performed a U-turn, which paved the way for a Tottenham trilogy fight with Derek Chisora on Saturday night.

And the electric atmosphere he experienced at the Hotspur Stadium before battering Del Boy for ten rounds was a reminder of why he’s found it so difficult to walk away from the sport.

As he chowed down on a post-fight burger with Chisora in the dressing room, he said: “I’ve been in this game so long.

“I’ve tried to walk away several times and I can’t. I’m like Frankenstein feeding off the electricity.

“Coming out there tonight with all those people going mad was like giving me a million quid.

“It was unbelievable.”

He added: “You’ll not get a better crowd than that tonight.”

Following the third defence of his WBC strap, Fury, 34, has set his sights on a blockbuster undisputed title fight with Oleksandr Usyk.

The pair had a heated face-off on the ring apron, in which Fury roared: “Where’s Alexander Usyk, the rabbit?!

“Hey, rabbit! Usyk, you’re next little b****, you’re next. You are next!

“Me and you, sucker, next. Me and you! You’re getting it, little sucker. Rabbit! P***Y!

“Look, a 15-stone little midget beat a bodybuilder.

“But I ain’t a bodybuilder, sucker. I’m gonna write you off!”

But he’s set to undergo surgery on his right elbow that could delay the proposed spring showdown.

In his post-fight press conference, he said: “I’ve got to maybe have surgery on my right elbow.

“I had the left one done, so I’ve got to have it done.

“It will take about six-to-eight weeks to heal. We’ll see when we can be ready for this fight.”
