    Sky/Hearn will be massively ****ed - If it's moved to late November or December it will screw up the Dec 12th Joshua PPV

    No way that Brook/Chaves can be PPV now. I think Mick has a show in October so if the fight is postponed until 2016 Fury can fight on that card.

    Gutted for Fury and anyone who's booked travel and accommodation out there. Wonder what happens to the Brook v Chavez now, surely cant keep it as PPV? Not even Fast Car could justify that.

    If he has pulled out, he has quite clearly got shook after seeing Fury at the press conference.
