In what was a crazy week for Tyson Fury, it got even crazier on Saturday as he pulled out of his fight against late replacement Alexander Ustinov due to an illness in his family according to Dan Rafael of espn.com.
“I’m very, very, disappointed for the fans,” said promoter Frank Warren. “After Dereck Chisora pulled out because of his hand injury, we worked very hard to secure a world-ranked opponent in Ustinov. It’s sad that his uncle Hughie is in a serious condition and our thoughts are with him. The show will still go ahead and as before it’s a great card. … We will be announcing the rescheduled date for Chisora versus Fury next week.”
