On Monday morning, former Lineal Heavyweight Champion Tyson Fury announced on his Instagram account that he is retiring from the sport again.
Fury is 36 years old and has a record of 34-2-1 in his illustrious professional boxing career. He lost his last two bouts against Oleksandr Usyk for the Undisputed Heavyweight Championship.
In 2015, Fury beat Wladimir Klitschko to win his first world championship. That night, Fury won the IBF, IBO, and the WBO heavyweight titles. The crowning achievement of his career was knocking Deontay Wilder out in 2020 to become the WBC Champion. He successfully defended his WBC title three times while knocking out each opponent.
The Gypsy King is one of the greatest Heavyweight champions of all time. He has captured the global boxing audience with unique charisma and captivating style. This is not the first time Fury has said he is retiring from boxing. Fury announced his retirement three previous times in his career: in 2013, 2017, and 2022.
