TYSON FURY’S WBA, WBO and IBF world title fight with Wladimir Klitschko is off as the heavyweight champion has pulled out due to injury.
The pair were due to meet in Dusseldorf on 24 October and Fury showed up at a press conference dressed as Batman earlier this week. However, Klitschko has suffered a calf injury meaning it will now take place at a later date.
27-year-old Fury tweeted that he had predicted the Ukrainian would postpone the bout, before apologising to fans who had book flights and accommodation for the event.
He added:
I wonder was this the best choice of club for Sadlier. He is a great talent so I was hopeful he would go to a bigger championship club. I fear Rotherham will go straight back down.
@Seagoat returns: might not have got game time at a bigger championship club. At least he can show what hes about playing regularly then possibly get a another move.
@John Palmer: Yes, that appears to have been his modus operandi since he was released by Peterborough- baby steps from Sligo to Cork to Doncaster and now to Rotherham. Rotherham is just down the road from Doncaster too so he has an opportunity to focus on the football.
