    Unfortunately Lee Selby's fight on the undercard has been cancelled at the last minute, his opponent Jonathan Barros didn't meet Nevada licensing requirements.

    Apparently he failed a medical. Tested positive for hepatitis.

    Damn, Selby will be livid. Must be gutting to have your Vegas debut taken away from you due to a sexual infection the other fighter has contracted?!?

    That must be heartbreaking and a lost purse. He isn't exactly minted from boxing.

    Somewhere in a pub in America tonight, a jobbing boxer might have just been taking his first sip of his pint when he's got a call on his mobile asking if he fancies a last minute fight tomorrow night in Las Vegas.

    Gutted for him. Surely he should be paid something for his troubles so late in the day

    News from the other side of the pond is that Selby's opponent has been sent for a brain scan after he admitted late yesterday afternoon that he ordered the ITV PPV for the Eubanks Jnr fight next week.

    Not unless he weighed in, which he didnt. Lee and his team have paid for that trip out of there own pockets now.
