    Fury pulled out of the rematch with mental health issues, nothing to do with the "authorities".

      Damage limitation. Hoping to pre-empt it and lessen the chance of losing sponsors.

          If Fury was on PEDS for the Klitschko fight why hasn't the result been called a no contest? Why hasn't K2 filed a lawsuit against him?

          You're not very bright are you son?

                At least wait till the commission ruling to play out if you are innocent

                I think it’s a pride thing with Canelo he wanted to be the one to pull the plug on the fight on not get it cancelled because of his suspension for being dirty. He doesn’t like being dictated too and feels he is above the sport
                I disagree. I think Canelo is giving GGG respect by killing it sooner than the NSAC was gonna do it... assuming they 100% where.

                Canelo is allowing for this promotion to get moving to the fight it will actually be promoting in May quicker than the NSAC is doing.

                  I Don’t see it like that

                  A week ago Canelo was GGg a little b.itch and that he was going to f.uck him up

                  Now he going to move off his self proclaimed date for the betterment of Gennady. I don’t see it

                  I don’t think Canelo is the type of guy to help Gennadys team get a couple more weeks to promote probably a sh.it fight

                  It’s his pride, the same reason he ditched the WBC belt after they mandated Gennady, The reason he fought Lara after he got stepped too at the post fight even though his team advised against it . Same reason he wouldn’t hold the belt in the Mayweather pre fight

                  In Canelo mind nobody tells Canelo what to do. He isn’t going to let the NSAC cancel the fight because he tested dirty , he’s going to be the one to do it

                    Well it could be a GBP PR move to. But its the move since the NSAC hasn't cancelled it. And we should

                    It’s his pride, the same reason he ditched the WBC belt after they mandated Gennady, The reason he fought Lara after he got stepped too at the post fight even though his team advised against it . Same reason he wouldn’t hold the belt in the Mayweather pre fight

                      British boxing disgraces itself with those early stoppages and **** refs during bigger fights really. Fury did nothing as bad as that sh@t
