Josh Taylor Retires as Undisputed Boxing Champion

Josh Taylor, the Scottish boxer and former undisputed world champion, has retired from boxing at age 34 due to a recurring and serious eye injury, following medical advice to avoid risking permanent loss of eyesight. Taylor made history as the first Briton to become an undisputed champion in the four-belt era, notably unifying the super-lightweight titles with a victory over Jose Ramirez in Las Vegas. His career also featured a gold medal at the 2014 Commonwealth Games and fights at prestigious venues like Madison Square Garden. Taylor expressed deep gratitude to his supporters, coaches, promoters, and fans for their roles in his journey. His retirement marks the end of a significant era for Scottish and British boxing. Taylor hopes his achievements will inspire the next generation of boxers.
