Don't tweet about it, you don't want him coming to get you

Interesting to see how Frankie Gavin gets on tonight. He's a talented boxer but just hasn't had the exposure like the likes of Khan.

Would love to see him go on to greater things he has the talent but the personal issues with that kid not being his messed his head up big time, couple with the cancer of his mum.

Fuming about Haye, I know he cant help it, but even so I have nothing at all planned for next weekend now.

Been really looking forward to going to see that

Reckon it will be postponed for 4-6 weeks from now.

Nah mate Manchester is only half an hour's drive away so I was sorted

Had tickets booked for when he was meant to fight Charr as well

Lets hope the same doesn't happen with Froch and Groves.

Cursed

I would hope that one will be alright unless Froch does his groin trying some sort of dance move.

Tell me about it

He's pulled out of that dance thing I think. I just hope Groves doesn't delay things with him splitting with Booth.

Tyson Fury's uncle and trainer has announced that his nephew will not fight David Haye after their heavyweight bout was cancelled.

Haye announced on Saturday morning that a cut sustained over his left eyebrow on Friday night which required six stitches forced him to postpone the contest against Fury a week before they were due to meet in the ring.

While the Londoner is hopeful of re-arranging the clash, Peter Fury told World Boxing News: "We move on from Haye now and look to better things.

"This has put a bad taste in our mouths so we're moving on and the fight will not be rearranged on our side."

Despite posting a picture of his injury on social networking sites, Haye's pull-out has angered the younger Fury, who criticised his heavyweight rival.

"There only would have been one winner and that was me. An army couldn't have stopped me on Saturday night because I'd prepared mentally, physically, everything," said Fury.

"I couldn't have done any more in training. I'm in the shape of my life, I just couldn't wait to show everyone what I was going to do and had up my sleeve.

"There's no excuses ever out of me. You never hear me say excuses. If I had two broken hands I would still go in there and fight on Saturday night."

The Manchester fighter added on Sky Sports: "I've been training so hard, so much for these big opportunities and every time I get a big opportunity something goes wrong."

"Why can I not get my time to shine? Give me a reason!"

Hmmmm I think Fury needs this fight still, if he beat Haye it'd give him some decent recognition in the heavyweight division IMO

So far he's beaten Thompson who's a blown up cruiser (I know so is Haye)
