    Wilder isn't holding up the division because he only has one belt. He's going to fight voluntaries and mandatories until a unification fight can be made.

    The Tyson-Wlad saga is just a mess.

    The whole thing is bad for boxing.

    We've now had 3 postponements and he's lost his IBF through politics.

    Now we don't know if he'll be stripped or when he'll be able to return.

    The division was exciting, but now it's turned to confusion and frustration.

    He would have if the Povetkin fight had taken place.

    You get my point.

    Stack that on top of fury refusing a drug test. And it's pretty damning.

    Exactly he has already been found guilty and is guilty unless he wins the appeal. He also refused a drug test which is damning on too of all this other Bs.

    i think he should be stripped. Him refusing to drug test hasn't been confirmed as far as im aware, the cocaine was out of competition, but the inactivity he should be stripped for, in 2 months it wouldve been a year and he wont recover from his mental health issues in that time so why prolong the inevitable, at the end of the day, money talks, and a heavyweight title being uncontested isnt making anyone money, as sad as that reason is. but he should DEFINITELY be made champion in recess

    It was in competition as he was tested for the Wlad fight in September which was scheduled for October. Now of course Fury wasn't training for the fight but it was IN competition. Highly unprofessional.

    i thought it was October, although tbh i think most people think hes been doing it for a lot longer than has been reported, me being one of them. its very unprofessional but i think recreational drug users should be sent to rehab instead of banned, its not influencing their skill level apart from probably diminishing it, unless the concern comes from the mental effects drugs can have on fighters

    I agree with cocaine not providing any benefits in competition, but still its on the VADA banned substance list and Fury agreed to VADA testing. It just proves his irrational mindset; I don't think he should be banned from boxing over cocaine abuse. He should seek professional medical help himself. He will however be banned over Nandralone abuse by the UKAD and that hearing is coming up on November 4.

    The nandrolone thing wasnt even a positive test. Look at all the statements UKAD have made and none state it was a positive. What has happened is small trace amounts have shown up but not enough to create a positive whatever the levels are. They also tested the B sample and this came back completely clear. Klitschkos team pushed for it to be publicised as they have been scratching round trying to find anything to get out of fighting Fury again.

    Nandrolone also occurs naturally in the body and athletes can give a positive result after intense trainng and being dehydrated.

    So boxers should be allowed sniff coke, smoke crack, take pills and get no punishment because it isn't performance enhancing.

    What a great advert for the sport and what a great way to have sponsors and Media to stay away.

    Jesus Christ.. the sport would become a laughing stock if it allowed use of recreational drugs.

    Tyson has to be stripped. There is no argument here.

    A ruling in the next day or so! He's guilty! That's why his coming up with all this nonsense! Dudes not mental or suicidal, he's just playing everyone! If I'm wrong we should be hearing news about papa Fury finding his son dead in a caravan somewhere in the country side of England! But I highly doubt it!

    What Fury is doing first and foremost is damaging the HW division. He's evading a title defense, he's holding the belts hostage. He has the audacity to go to the press and say he hates our sport, yet he does not voluntarily drop the belts so we can move on! Fury is a pitiful disgrace.

    No, iv read the reports!

    There was no positive test. B sample was completely clear and can get positives because the body produces nandrolone itself!

    Maybe you should stop listening to media?
