Tyson Fury has set himself a hugely ambitious career goal

Love him or hate him, there's no denying the fact that Tyson Fury has never been short of ambition.

Fury is well on his way to making his long-awaited return to the ring, having been out of action since his 2015 victory over Wladimir Klitschko in Dusseldorf. Fury had several issues to deal with in his time away from boxing but the dedication that abandoned him for a couple of years seems to have returned and he's close to fight shape again after ballooning up to a whopping 27 stone. After breaking Klitschko's 11-year win streak, Fury never got the chance to defend his belts but with his comeback date approaching, the 29-year-old has set out what he wants to accomplish in the remainder of his career. https://www.instagram.com/p/BghNyu9DgY6/ Fury has had his boxing licence reinstated and his UK Anti-Doping ban backdated which allows the undefeated heavyweight to get back to what he does best. Now '2 Fast' has set his sights on cementing his legacy and shattering a long-held record in the process. "I've just set myself a goal of beating the great Joe Louis' record of 25 title defences," Fury said on Instagram on Monday night. "Wladimir Klitschko almost beat Joe Louis' record until I beat him and stopped him from equalling the great Joe Louis' record. "So I've got 25 title defences to beat in the next 10 years. Even if I have to book three fights a year, I'll beat it. "It's going to be a hard challenge but I've never set a challenge that I didn't make. If anyone's capable of doing it, I'm capable of doing it. "What's that word? Longevity! That's what I'm looking for. I ain't no flash in the pan and you're going to see it here, exclusive! "All comers! 26 title defences!"
