    Call me a cynic, but Acne should be the least of any concerns a professional boxer should have?

    Getting caught taking PEDs might be more relevant...

      Isn't that case still to be brought before the BBBofC? Last I heard the Fury's were suing the BBBofC - but not sure what the latest is.

      This acne sounds terrible. I don't think steroid acne would see blood oozing out of his back during a fight.

        The article says he's been out of the ring since last april because of acne. Which could be true but fails to mention that for some of that time he couldn't fight because he was banned for steroid use. I think that info is relevant.

          He certainly looks a lot better.

          Time will tell if it changes anything in the ring.

            Acne also comes from using PED!!! Interesting to see what UCAD does next. He doped and a hearing is still due.

              Yes it does in some cases but Marquez is a different story. Never seen him with acne before and then all of a sudden he starts working with Memo and shows up with suspect acne all over chest.

              Fury is has struggled with severe acne since he was a teen and that can be hard to get rid off even as an adult.

                    Good to hear he's in better condition, sounded and looked nasty too.
