Tyson Fury Announces Retirement From Boxing After Loss To Oleksandr Usyk

Former world heavyweight champion Tyson Fury has announced his retirement from boxing, just weeks after his second loss to Oleksandr Usyk.

In a short video shared on his Instagram, Fury, 36, expressed gratitude to his supporters: “Thanks to everyone who helped out along the way! Happy new year. Jesus is king now and forever.” He added, “Thanks; it’s been a blast, I enjoyed every minute of it.”

Fury had previously announced his retirement multiple times, and this decision comes after his loss to Usyk by unanimous decision in December. As a result, the anticipated fight with Anthony Joshua will no longer take place.
