Tyson Fury holding £10,000 in cash after winning a bet with promoter Frank Warren during a press conference at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium
OVER two weeks on and boxing in Britain is still reeling over the “adverse finding” registered by the Voluntary Anti-Doping Agency (Vada) in a Conor Benn drugs test taken at the beginning of September.
After far too much speculation and hesitation in the days leading up to his scheduled PPV clash with Chris Eubank Jr on October 9, mercifully the fight was postponed by promoter Eddie Hearn at the 11th hour.
