Peebo Posted September 30, 2016 Share Posted September 30, 2016 Well this is almost as surprising as Big Sam trying to do a bent deal, and Joey Barton being such a ***** that even one of the most vile organisations in football has banned him from their premises.

CJGJ Posted September 30, 2016 Share Posted September 30, 2016 Knock me down with a feather This was obvious the last time he cancelled the fight and as usual the boxing world wanted to ignore it waiting until after his planned fight before a hearing when action should have been taken straight away. Titles should be stripped, he should be banned for at least one year then he needs to get help and be tested regularly before he fights again Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't know about your line of work but I don't know many people who would lose their job through coke. It's definitely up for debate, I don't believe there's any suggestion he took it as a performance enhancer.

But that aside, it's stupid. There are places you can go in europe where you're committing no crime. If someone goes to Portugal for a week, smokes a joint, commits no crime, should he be stripped of titles? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unknown user Posted October 1, 2016 Share Posted October 1, 2016 If he was breaching his sport's rules, then possibly.Which goes back to the question of why it's against the rules of boxing when it's not a performance enhancer. Boxers don't get stripped of titles for every crime, so why this one? And why, when it could have been legal recreational use in another country and no crime been committed?

jambo1961 Posted October 1, 2016 Share Posted October 1, 2016 Charlie is Illegal and it seems Fury quite liked a line or two He got caught so he has to take the consequences Think there's more to come out about this clown which will drown him hopefully... he's just a bad egg that thinks he can do what he wants Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If he is genuinely depressed which tbh his recent behavior would suggest then I wish all the best in his recovery. He has went from being the the heavyweight champion and the highest point of career to almost throwing all away. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
