Just a matter of hours had passed since his defeat to Lewis Crocker in December when Tyrone McKenna announced his retirement from boxing on social media.

In the build-up to the December 2 ‘Battle of Belfast’ at the SSE Arena, McKenna insisted he would hang them up if he lost and stayed true to those pre-fight statements as the retirement post went out the following morning.
