By Scott Gilfoid: Tyson Fury (22-0, 16 KO’s) has been talking 24/7 ever since Dereck Chisora (20-4, 13 KOs) pulled out of their fight for this Saturday with a hand injury. Fury is suspicious of the injury and feels that Chisora might be pulling one over on him in order to avoid getting pummeled in front of the fans at the Phones 4U Arena in Manchester, UK.
It’s real paranoid stuff on Fury’s part, because Chisora wouldn’t likely fake an injury just to get out of a fight that would pay him tons of money. This isn’t a career high payday for Chisora, but it would still be the biggest money he’s gotten since his fight with David Haye in 2012.
Fury now even wants to see X-rays of Chisora’s hand in order to be completely sure that the injury is a legitimate one. Chisora decided to play on Fury’s fears by sending him a tweet today where he’s standing with David Haye and Adam Booth, saying “Let’s ruin Tyson Fury’s career without even fighting him.”
