Former world heavyweight champion Tyson Fury has announced his retirement from boxing, marking another chapter in his eventful career.
The 36-year-old Briton, who last fought in December, suffered back-to-back defeats against Oleksandr Usyk, losing his WBC, WBA (Super), and WBO titles.
Fury previously retired in 2022 after defeating Dillian Whyte but made a comeback six months later.
Fury, a two-time heavyweight champion, ends his career with a record of 34 wins, two losses, and one draw.
He first rose to fame in 2015 by dethroning Wladimir Klitschko to claim multiple world titles and later won the WBC belt against Deontay Wilder in 2020 after overcoming personal struggles.
While his promoter, Frank Warren, acknowledged Fury’s retirement announcement, he expressed admiration for the fighter’s legacy, calling him “the best British heavyweight of his generation.”
Fury’s decision comes after a historic rivalry with Usyk, including the first-ever four-belt heavyweight undisputed bouts, where the Ukrainian emerged victorious in both encounters.
