    Seen it time and time again over the years where FR4NK builds up a show and gets it sold out and then all of a sudden with a few weeks to go the biggest draw in terms of purse goes belly up, been getting away with it for years he done it with Burns vs Vasquez and the time Fury vs Chisora got called off etc , Thoughts on this ?? anyone else think hes been #FR4NKED

    It was sold which makes it more like foul play imo and Fr4nk pockets more dosh with not having to pay his co main event

    Dengue Fever. Which is basically a nasty rash.

    No surprise........can't feel sorry for those poor fans that pay decent money either. In the olden days your first supporting fight would be a straight and accepted replacement but cos it's all about nicking every penny you can it's almost a result for tight **** promoters to sell out and have top of bill pull out im sure. Mind you BoxNation won't drop him so who gives a F!!!!

    More like a rash with weeks of flu-like aches and fatigue, which can develop into a haemorrhagic fever (i.e. same class of disorders as ebola - though that's a pretty rare progression). You certainly would not be able to train with it - and any weight cutting would have to take a back-seat to recovery.
