Comments Thread For: Eight canceled fights that left boxing fans wanting and wondering

[Boxing 112]

Pac was pretty shot by the the time of that proposed Spence fight. There wasnt that big demand it was expected Pac to lose

Joshua - Fury should be on this list it was going to be after the 2nd Fury-Wilder fight and then there were legal problems and lawsuit threats over rematch clauses with Fury-Wilder III taking place. Back then both were in their primes and both had a win over Wladimir.

That fight was more wanted than the klitscho rematch that is on the list, fury dominated and won nearly all rounds. Why would the rematch be any different? wlad was old and less mobile.

Fury AJ was never official and never signed. Eddie claimed contracts signed but there was never any final contracts signes. People listing fights that were not even signed.

Out of those 4, 1 was never official so cannot have been cancelled, Fury vs AJ. Despite the claims from Hearn or Fury the fight was never signed, no official final contracts were ever signed, that fight was in talks with Saudi but Hearn could never get it across the line for months he claimed it will be official the week after and it never was. All the Wilder arbitration decision did was give Hearn an excuse to use for the fight not happening when he could not agree the deal official himself so it wasn't happening even if Wilder 3 was not ordered
