British Heavyweight Champion, Tyson Fury Again Announces Retirement From Boxing For The Second Time

The British boxer made this announcement on Monday barely two days after Eddie Hearn revealed Wembley had been reserved for Tyson Fury to fight Anthony Joshua in the summer.

A British World Boxing Champion (WBC) heavyweight, Tyson Fury, has announced his retirement from boxing with immediate effect.

The British boxer made this announcement on Monday barely two days after Eddie Hearn revealed Wembley had been reserved for Fury to fight Anthony Joshua in the summer.

This is not the first time Fury would announce his retirement.

In April 2022, he made a similar pronouncement after beating Dillian Whyte, when the Briton said he would be hanging up his gloves.

He returned six months later to fight Derek Chisora in a trilogy bout at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium.

“I’d like to announce my retirement from boxing,” said Fury in a video post on Instagram.

“It’s been a blast. I have loved every single minute of it and I’m going to end with this – Dick Turpin wore a mask!”

Fury was beaten by unanimous decision in December in his rematch with Oleksandr Usyk.

The 36-year-old wouldn’t speculate as to whether he’d even box again after the fight, stating: “I might do, I might not. I’m going home and having time off.”
