"The fight is cancelled!!!"
This was the shocking headline decades ago when Eddie Mustafa Muhammad couldn't make weight against Michael Spinks for the light-heavyweight title.
Fortunately, Eddie Mustafa made weight 13 hours later only to lose his title to Spinks.
Has there ever been a time when a fight was cancelled within 3 weeks of a fight? The Spinks/Mustafa fiasco happened within 13 hours of the fight.
What are the possibilities that a major fight could be cancelled in the future?
