In a shocking twist, Tyson Fury retires from boxing for the 2nd time, and ignores massive money fight with Anthony Joshua.

Despite rumours that he might face Anthony Joshua at Wembley this year, former heavyweight world champion Tyson Fury has declared his retirement from boxing.

The 36-year-old most recently faced Oleksandr Usyk in Saudi Arabia in his rematch for the WBA (Super), WBC, and WBO championships.

Fury took to Instagram to make a video talking about his retirement from the spot.

(function (v, d, o, ai) { ai = d.createElement('script'); ai.defer = true; ai.async = true; ai.src = v.location.protocol + o; d.head.appendChild(ai); })(window, document, '//a.vdo.ai/core/v-pulsesports-ng-v2/vdo.ai.js');

He said, “I’m going to make this short and sweet.

“I’d like to announce my retirement from boxing. It’s been a blast.”

When Fury lost the rematch with Usyk on December 21, he was unhappy with the verdict.

Fury, who has a record of 32 wins, 2 losses, 1 draw, and 24 knockouts, had admitted to making mistakes, most notably by over-showboating, after they lost their first bout in May in Riyadh by split decision.

Throughout his career, which started in 2008 and featured a draw with American boxer Deontay Wilder in 2018, Fury's losses to Usyk were the only setbacks.

Fury first announced his retirement after fighting Dyllian Whyte in 2022, but he returned six months later.
