British Heavyweight Boxer Delicious Orie Retires After Single Professional Fight

Anthony Joshua, recovering from elbow surgery, is planning to fight once in 2025, with a potential return in September. His team is closely monitoring Tyson Fury's retirement status, as an all-British bout between Joshua and Fury remains a top goal if Fury returns. Joshua is also considering a rematch with Daniel Dubois, who knocked him out in 2024, and a victory there would make Joshua a three-time heavyweight champion, a rare achievement in boxing history. Despite recent setbacks, Joshua remains a significant figure in heavyweight boxing and is in negotiations for a major three-fight deal aimed at his return. Meanwhile, another British heavyweight, Delicious Orie, has announced a surprising retirement after only one professional fight, choosing to pursue a corporate career despite early promise and comparisons to Joshua. Orie cited a fading passion for boxing and a desire for personal honesty as reasons for his decision, highlighting a different path within the sport's community.
