Tyson Fury Stripped Of Heavyweight Title


Recommended Posts

Fury will have known about this before the fight. It's a non-story.

Fury can't really complain, the only reason he got the Klitschko fight was by becoming the mandatory for the WBO belt.

How long had Klitschko had his belts though? Surely the same situation happened there with different federations wanting him to fight different people but I don't recall him being stripped of titles.

Not necessarily. The mandatory challengers pretty much come one at a time, it only really works out this way when a champion loses multiple titles and invokes a rematch clause when someone else is mandatory for one of the other titles.
