    Fury didn't fulfill his only media commitment to promote this fight. Maloney is not happy and is complaining to the BBBofC.

    War, McDonut!

    It's on the homepage here too.

    Not turning up will probably generate more interest than if he did.

    Plus it got under Maloney's skin which is always a bonus.

    Probably had to do some last minute roof-slate stealing.

    I bet Maloney asked him not to be there.

    A bit like when Haye didn't turn up at the Macca conference because he needed his sleep. Warren did a real good job at pretending to be angry that day.

    Wonder what he will say when the press (if any) catch up with him? Should be funny. Really looking forward to this fight.

    I don't dislike Baloney (joke :lol:).

    If it wasn't all staged, I suspect it was, It would have been Fury's objective to get under his skin - so it was good for him.

    I like Maloney. He is the only major promoter who puts shows on in Yorkshire and the bills he shows are usually very good, I like the matchmaking and do not mind him personally, seems the usually funny little Irishman.


    The fight is this Friday isnt it?

    Betfair seem like the only bookie to have this one, though I expect others to follow suit.

    Fury 1/8
    McDermott 8/5
    Draw 24/1

    Clearly with this being a fan vs fan website the odds can prove distorted. Not sure I'd take McMuffin at those odds, would you?
