Going to be stripped of his titles if true.

Shame. I'd such high hopes for his reign.

Fury being "medically unfit" is what is being touted around by a spokesperson for Hennessey Sports as the reason, and that he is going to get "the treatment he needs to make a full recovery"

Sound like it's mental health related rather than an injury as such

It does, doesn't it?

And if it is, then it is the right thing to have the fight called off.

This fight might not even go ahead at all. He's got his hearing for his doping allegations coming up and the only reason this was given the go ahead was that it was pit back until after the fight. If he's found guilty he'll be stripped of his title's anyway.

Regardless of his condition he should be stripped of them anyway if he is medically unfit as he's not had a single defence of his title since he won it near a year ago.

If it is a mental heath issue, then the belts and being stripped of them become the smaller issue tbh. Don't like Fury at all but when it comes to mental health I would wish nothing but the best outcome for anyone suffering.

The belts he should lose if he cannot go on (and if he is found guilty of doping) but I do hope that his problems turn out to be physical rather than mental.

Crolla vs Linares tonight.

For some reason Crolla is favourite with the bookies. Don't see it myself. Fancy Linares.

I wonder what Haye is thinking about Fury after all of his ****ty comments after injuries stopped those fights from happening. Amusing when the shoe is on the other foot.

Linares should walk this, he's all class, but as I've said before he's flawed despite being a really good fighter that should win every fight he's in. I'm not the hugest fan of Crolla but he's okay. If Linares implodes it's possible he may throw it away, but he really shouldn't.

Looks like Paulie has taken over Watt full time.

Chuffed with this.

That happened at the start of the summer.

The Destroyer?

Benn Jr may want to change his nickname.

No disrespect to the lad but he's got a way to go before he's befitting a nickname like that.

**Daniel 7** · 24-09-16, 07:40 PM

Watt retired - it was about time, but he deserves a bit of respect

**Shaggy** · 24-09-16, 08:23 PM

What time is Crolla due on?
