Tyson Fury has announced his retirement from boxing with immediate effect.
The announcement comes barely 48 hours after Eddie Hearn revealed Wembley had been reserved for Fury to fight Anthony Joshua in the summer.
This is not the first time the British boxer announced his retirement, in April 2022, after beating Dillian Whyte, the Briton said he would be hanging up his gloves, but soon returned to fight Derek Chisora in a trilogy bout at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium.
“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 the Ukrainian.
