    The positive test result for cocaine is the final piece of the puzzle. "The Fightin' Man" is done.

    What a guy snorts in between fights I couldn't care less about. These lads smoking weed and having a sniff are getting longer bans than cynical, low-life steroid monsters like Luis Ortiz, which is pathetic.

    Had his camp started? I don't see why boxers get tested if they're not in camp. Seems a bit over the top to me. Yes, I get the need to set a good example but nobody would even know otherwise.

    He's just gone completely off the rails since his world title win. I think he struggles with his mental issues quite badly, hope he manages to get himself sorted out.

    It doesn't mean he's finished or done. Loads of fighters have had cocaine in the middle of their careers.
    It's enough now for them to strip him, of course.

    The failed test was on the 22nd of September, and they pulled out on the 24th if memory serves me correctly. Him and his team knew he would fail so pulled out on 'medical grounds' in the hope that the test would not be made public. That's my opinion of what is really going on with fury and his team. They are an embarrassment to the sport.

    He failed on 22nd September, a couple of days before he pulled out of the fight.
