I'll keep it brief: I hereby announce that I'm ending my boxing career. It's been magical and I've loved every minute, he says.

This is not the first time "The Gypsy King", as he is called, announces that he's ending his career. Last time was in 2022, when the Briton announced that his career was over, but was back again a year later.

In December, Fury lost the prestigious rematch against Ukrainian Oleksandr Usyk – just like in the first meeting in May, when Usyk emerged victorious against Fury after twelve rounds, then after a split decision.

Usyk was the first to defeat Fury and became, with the victory, the first undisputed heavyweight champion with all the belts in 24 years.

Since the loss in December, Fury has kept a low profile. He responded to the question of whether the audience would see him fight again:

"Maybe, maybe not. Who knows?"
