Daniel Jacobs has retired from professional boxing at 37 years old. “[I’m] announcing my retirement,” Jacobs wrote. “[I] want to show my gratitude and appreciation to the sport of boxing as it has changed my life in ways I never could imagine. It has instilled so many morals and values I wouldn’t have learned otherwise. Boxing made me the man I am today. It has always been my dream to be a champion in life and when boxing found me, I was a poor kid growing up in Brownsville, Brooklyn with not much to look forward to. As a young Black kid, I was being forced fed an identity that I wasn’t important or wouldn’t succumb to anything substantial in life. I was told [that] the ghetto that I grew up in was was full of criminals with no future and I [would] be a statistic just like my peers and the ones that came [before] me. [They told me that I would be] dead or in jail with no potential to make it out or to make a success of myself. I am now proud to say [that] I’m the rose that grew from concrete in Brooklyn. I’ve prove[d] so many people wrong.”
