The boxing match between former heavyweight champion Mike Tyson and social media star Jake Paul shattered records, becoming the most-streamed sporting event of all time as well as the biggest boxing gate outside the state of Nevada, bringing in more than $18 million.

LONDON — British heavyweight Tyson Fury has retired from boxing — again — one month after losing a rematch with Ukrainian Oleksandr Usyk. The 36-year-old Fury announced the decision in a short video posted on his Instagram account on Monday, which included a cryptic message. “Hi everybody, I’m going to make this short and sweet. I’d like to announce my retirement from boxing,” Fury said.

But he was back fighting again two months later. In April of that same year, the self-styled “Gypsy King” had already suggested he would retire earlier after knocking out Dillian Whyte with a brutal uppercut in front of more than 94,000 fans at Wembley Stadium. But he never did and won two more fights, against Derek Chisora and Francis Ngannou — an MMA fighter making his boxing debut — before finally meeting his match in Usyk. Fury’s record is 34-2-1, with 24 KOs.
