    Over an overly soft canvass apparently.

    My thoughts but you don't know what Fury would do. Doubt he'd jeopardise his money though.

    "If it's not resolved, the fight is in jeopardy of being off," Vali said.

    From Peter Fury's twitter

    Head of British Boxing board saying ring canvas is totally unacceptable. Boxing" more like moon walking#JOKE!!!

    If their refusing to change this canvas which takes just one hour to remove foam" then it's simply cheating to gain unfair advantage.

    Agreed on games and that Fury won't risk his money.

    It did look springy in fairness. Back on now.

    The only thing we'll see is Tyson is on his knocked out cold within 6 rounds.

    Old man Klitschko needs springy canvas for his old legs.

    Anyone who has boxed on a soft canvas knows that it is a ****ing nightmare and very frustrating. Don't blame him for threatening to pull out.

    We all saw what happened with frampton and that Mexican. Stops the ability to plant your feet properly.

    Fight is on, Canvas all sorted.

    Hughie's fight is off altogether though, he will box next sat on the Daws bill.
