So we all now know why is was signed off as unfit. But does this really come as a surprise to anyone?

Klitschko - Joshua looks like a real possibility. Hearn's already confirmed he's opened talks about the fight (although denied a few reports that it's agreed) but repeatedly said it would only be if Fury's titles were on the line. And in the last hour or so it's being reported that Fury's tested positive for cocaine and will indeed be stripped of his titles.

Wonder how much that cost Eddie?

What arranging the fight ? Or fixing for a "random drugs test" to be performed

 

[Jimbeam3678]

its totally unconfirmed about the cocaine at the moment

If you had a tenner to bet you'd back it to be true though wouldn't you

 

[=XDC=FluphyBunny]

Fury is a complete and utter ********. Just strip him of his titles ffs and lets a get a proper champion who wants to actually fight.

He is a disgrace to the sport, from likely PEDs in his first fight, an ankle injury and now cocaine he should be stripped of his belts and licence and lets see some other fights lined up in the HW division.

 

[Jimbeam3678]

I think its inevitable this is going to happen.

 

[jigger]

If true it's beyond retarded.

 

[robfosters]

WTF, just seen the Parker fight. Landed the knockout blow to the body when the bloke was on one knee. That's completely against the rules.

 

[The_One]

cleverley vs braehmer about to start

fancy braehmer still

 

[Jimbeam3678]

If true it's beyond retarded.

Well he has tweeted that picture with a reference to drug taking.

 

[The_One]

cleverley is getting banged out imo

 

[The_One]

cleverley new lightheavy world champion as brahmer retires with an elbow injury

cleverleys got lucky imo as brahmer was easily winning that

That was a shocking illegal punch, Parker was winning but it was such an obvious illegal hit it should go as no contest (it looks like it won't/hasn't as $'s to be made)

He still hasn't fought anyone of any standing so even with his record I am not certain who they are aiming for?

Andy Ruiz for the WBO title is probably his next step which is a fight which he would be a big favourite in.

Up to this point I would say that his Takam win was better than any of Ruiz's or Joshua's in terms of an opponent.

 

[BaZ87]

Fury has announced his retirement. I'll take anything he says with a pinch of salt though.

 

[Nate75]

pretty mental really re Tyson

 

[Smit]

Well to be fair he was probably looking at a ban for a couple of years anyway? So plenty of time to reverse his retirement.

 

[BaZ87]

A couple of hours later and it appears as if Fury has changed his mind :/

Good I want him 'active' when he gets his ban handed to him

 

[Maundie]

How embarrassing is Tyson Fury to the hw division, guy is a complete and utter pecker and I think he realises that Klitschko will beat him in a re-match and that's why all this bull.
