Following previous losses to Luis Alberto Lopez and Leigh Wood, the two-time featherweight world champ felt he had reached the end of the Elland Road.
But, after a couple of strong gym sessions — and a scan of his X-rated social messages — the latest comeback starts on April 19 against Asad Khan.
The Yorkshire hero said: “Something was missing in that last performance.
“I told my dad, in my corner, that ten per cent or so just wasn’t there.
“When I laid down my gloves, I meant it.
“I went back in the gym to help a mate and things started to click again.
“Then I checked social media, expecting the worst, but I had nothing but support and backing.
“Some people even wrote, ‘I have always thought you are a w****r but don’t retire yet, you’ve got loads left to give’.

“I need to retire on my terms. And I will — w* or not.”
