Shame, this was going to be an interestng match-up. Now the plan is to fight Chisora once again, anyone who listened to Fury's press conference will find this highly amusing.

Yeah think Fury had a look at what nick Ustinov was in and didnt really fancy it
|
|
By:
imagine having tickets for this card - you'd be fkin fuming
|
|
By:
faaacckinghell.
gutted about that, what a shambles. Was there ever an intention to fight? You'd be fuming if you were going to this |
|
By:
was going to ask do we believe the reason he's pulled out? total mess all this
|
|
By:
Bit of a gutter but still a decent card
|

I've given up trying to work out what's true and what isn't for this card...whatever the truth Fury looks a plonker, only yesterday he was saying he'd still fight if he was blind!
Maybe seen Ustinov was (bizarrely) in the best shape of his career and thought **** it not worth the risk? The timing of the announcement stinks to high heaven though...practically waiting till fans were arriving in Manchester. Been a bizarre promotion from start to finish and once again the only one who comes out of it on the night with money in the bank is Frank Warren, tickets sold, punters on site, boxnation subs up, no headline purses to pay...surprise surprise. |

Not really a £500 ringside card though is it? 6 of the original named fights haven't come off. |
|
By:
Of course it isnt but you always get ripped off in Britain.
|
|
By:
And to be fair to Warren he's said this morning if you wanna return your ticket for a full refund you can
|
|
By:
yeah bit late now though a lot of people will already have travelled. I'm just sore cos I've turned down a decent night out tonight to stop in and watch this.
It'a boxing isn't it, it happens, just seems to be happening all the time lately. Very disappointing. |

By:
I've always liked Fury but he has lost all credibility with this after what he has previously said when Haye and Chisora pulled out.
With all this crap over the last year I'll be surprised if there's anyone left who would actually take the risk of buying a ticket for a British Heavyweight fight anymore. It's going to be interesting to see where his career goes from here if he's inactive for another 6 months rescheduling another fight with Chisora in December. Was always a crap fight anyway waiting 8 months after Hayes last pull out to fight someone he had already beaten. |

hearing that there is a very good reason for Fury's pull out and it isn't anything to do with the Uncle...couple of reputable posters on boxrec saying that when the truth comes out nobody will be complaining, sounds like something quite serious tbh
|
|
By:
Someone put up on livefight it was a bit more serious but that was about it
|
|
By:
quite a few people seem to know but are not willing to let the story out so presume it's a sensitive issue, one of the kids maybe?
Anyway looks like my toys were out of the pram a bit early so I take back the Fury and Warren bashing, get the feeling my disappointment at the fight not happening is going to pale into insignificance when the truth comes out. |
|
By:
Hopefully it isnt nothing to serious

heffron williams great start to the card
 |
|
By:
Yep good fight there. At least there are some competitive fights. Unlike Matchroom where Bellew was the biggest price on the card at 1-14. Gethin Flanagan should be interesting
|
|
By:
yeah this could be decent. Heffron just got run over didnt he, first time I'd seen williams I think, quite impressed. Like the way he took his time even when he hurt Heffron early, very composed
|
|
By:
flannagan putting a bit too much in too early here? Not sure he can keep that pace up
|
|
By:
Think Gethin is taking too much.
|
|
By:
yeah maybe, didnt look to happy there
|
|
By:
Cut is deep on the cheekbone. Impressed with Flanagan so far but only 3 down
|
|
By:
Flanagan works the body well off the ropes
|
|
By:
Eye quite bad for Gethin
|
|
By:
**** me that ear doesnt look good either
|
|
By:
Shame for Gethin freak injury repeat of Diaz ear. Impressed by Terry though
|
|
By:
yeah good fight too. Shaping up to be a decent night, got no bets at all on too so I can just enjoy it
 |
|
By:
Boxed well long range, well up close. Turned his man well, worked up and down. Proved he has a engiene very impressed. Matthews next
|
|
By:
Smith wins in 6 unimpressive
|
|
By:
If Smith was any good he'd be on Eddie's bills not Warren's
|
|
By:
Only mean that because the other 3 brother's are on Eddie's payroll
|
|
By:
smith rose would be interesting, pretty evenly matched
|
|
By:
Cant make my mind up with Smith. Williams who beat Heffron tonight could be very interesting in 2-3 fights
|
|
By:
I think he is very average SJ
|
|
By:
Yeah same here
|
|
By:
Got all this Eubank bollox now
|
|
By:
dangerous mismatch that, for **** sake get Jnr in with someone decent
|
|
By:
Coudlnt agree more how do the board sanction that
|
|
By:
He needs to step up but I think he is the real deal
