Two defeats to Oleksandr Usyk in world championship fights have taken their toll on British boxer Tyson Fury, who has officially announced his retirement from boxing.
Details: Fury shared a brief yet clear message on social media, where he stated his decision to end his boxing journey.
Quote: "I’ll keep it short and sweet, but I’d like to announce my retirement from boxing. It’s been a blast, I’ve loved every minute of it. I’ll finish with this: Dick Turpin wore a mask. God bless everyone, see you on the other side," Fury said.
Reminder: This isn’t the first time Fury has announced his retirement. Back in October 2016, during a doping scandal, Fury had his boxing license revoked, prompting him to end his career. However, he returned to the sport in July 2017, and by April 2018, he was cleared to compete again.
Promoter Eddie Hearn speculated that following Fury’s December 2024 loss to Oleksandr Usyk, he might face Anthony Joshua in the ring.
