It is important to note that Tyson has already announced his retirement twice. In 2017, he announced that he was retiring from boxing after defeating Volodymyr Klychko, and in 2022, after defeating Dillian Whyte (30-3, 20 KOs). After those statements, Fury returned to the ring a few months later.
Klychko lost to Fury in 2015.
The Watford native began his career in 2008. The British fighter gained worldwide fame after a fight with Klychko Jr. from whom he took the championship belts by unanimous decision.
Wilder lost twice to Fury.
After the victory over the Ukrainian, Fury started having psychological problems. He abused alcohol and took drugs. The Gypsy King was stripped of his titles and disqualified.
The rematch between Usyk and Fury took place in Riyadh.
In 2018, Tyson managed to make a comeback and had a magnificent trilogy with Deontay Wilder (43-4-1, 42 KOs), in which he knocked out the American twice. Last year, the Briton suffered two defeats against Oleksandr Usyk (23-0, 14 KOs).
