    I just hope Rod Stewart can reschedule, no one must be more angry than him.

    Well, because he thought it was good sport. Because some men aren't looking for anything logical, like money. They can't be bought, bullied, reasoned, or negotiated with. Some men just want to watch the world burn.

    Ustinov had been training for weeks for the fight and Wlad has no injury?

    Or Fury ducked Ustinov and Wlad has an injury for real?

    Or Fury ducked Ustinov and Wlad ducked Fury

    Either could be true and people are entitled to their opinions. Personally I think all three scenarios could be true but who gives a sh!t

    Vlad has no reason to fear Fury, none at all......................Vlad had to get the doctor's opinion before he could announce when the fight could be rescheduled.........................I am very disappointed that the injury happened, Vlad could beat Fury even with an injury, but never fight with an injury. Injuries happen to all fighters at one time or another....................

    It was very sudden from Wlad. You also wonder if this is to limit te amout of travelling fans heading over from the UK/Ireland as lots of people initially planning on going prob won't be able to make the rescheduled date.

    I don't think it's a decision Wlad has made out of fear, more just gamesmanship. The guy IS a **** and be does seek out EVERY possible advantage whether he needs it or not.

    He's just injured. No conspiracy.

    It won't be shown till the fight is back on.

    Wlad looks mentally destroyed in that short clip.

    If your psyche and state of mind has been compromised , you're going to make mistakes.

    I wouldn't be surprised if he cancels the fight just so the entirety of that video never surfaces

    Exactly:good

    Ustinov had months of prep and sparring with Wach who was in camp with Chisora.

    Nobody switches top level opponents that different on a few days notice.

    Right...

    Tysons current trainer is his dads brother. His old trainer was also his dads brother so his current trainers brother and Tysons uncle also.

    He was having a routine operation the day before the fight and got a blood clot and was rushed to intensive care and I think put in an induced coma. It was serious as he died only a few weeks later!

    This is why they cancelled the fight because someone litterally was on their death bed and as much as you may not be able to understand it they wanted to be with their brother and uncle before he died.

    This is the same man who was Tysons trainer for the first Chisora fight and in his corner.

    It's ironic how every high profile fight Fury's been in his opponent pulled out. I hate to admit it but maybe his opponents are really scared of him.

    You guys and your willingness to give a Fury a pass for ducking Ustinov crack me up!!

    If this was a valid point, why did Fury blame his no show on his Uncle being ill?

    If this was was a valid point, why even bother with the press conference? A press conference during which which Fury said he was going to do (blah, blah etc) to AU??

    Why would a "Proud fighting man" be afraid to fight an in shape and prepared fringe contender? Do all of his opponents have to be out of shape and unprepared??

    Fury ducked..it's as simple as that!!

    Indeed, Ustinov's promoter, Alexander Krussyak, gave a revealing interview after Fury pulled out..during which he claimed that Ustinov advised him that Fury may not fight!!
