By Scott Gilfoid: Well, it looks like Matchroom Sport promoter Eddie Hearn can forget all about heavyweight Tyson Fury (24-0, 18 KOs) fighting on the undercard of the Kell Brook vs. Diego Chaves fight card on October 24th on Sky Box Office.
Earlier today, Fury had a good laugh in the process of turning down Hearn’s offer of fighting in an eight rounder on the Brook-Chaves card. Fury said there is no way that he can take the offer, because he’s still under contract for the Wladimir Klitschko fight, and he has to wait until Wladimir’s injured left calf heals before he can fight. Fury can’t take any fights in between that fight.
