Comical people taking UKAD and there word seriously

And no, Tyson don't give a sh*t cos he knows he'll box again them UKAD dinlo won't stop that

Tyson was not required to attend yesterday's hearing....

[mullenman]

Tyson was not required to attend yesterday's hearing....

Sky sports news should apologise to Tyson for misinformation yesterday that they were telling the general public. As trump would say " sack the idiots for this fake news"

[deadpan]

Can he take the Malta route if it doesn't work out for him?

[Tanzio]

Looks like he is taking the malted chocolates route to me.

Tyson didn't have to show up but you'd think his legal team might bother to show up to defend him.
I can't see anything in the papers to say they did?

EDIT - Looks like the lawyers were there after all

Interesting....

[Mighty Atom]

Bang

[Sklar]

Drug users both then. Shame.

[Mighty Atom]

So it's a compromise 2 year ban ending tonight for both.

Plus Tyson's win over Hammer and Hughie's win over Rudenko are now both no-contests

[Lenny]

How does a backdated two year ban mean Hughie is free to box?

[Mimmy]

So what did the Fury v Parker fight mean if he was banned for fighting for 2 years which ends tonight?

Has the Fury's admitted to taking banned drugs then?

[mickey1975]

Get in!

[mickey1975]

Drug users both then. Shame.

Neither have knowingly taken anything (except sniff).

[Stuarty]

Hopefully Tysons licence is reinstated ASAP and he can keep shifting the weight in training for a comeback. Encouraging news today but it won't all be plain sailing with the BBBoC because of his mental health issues and recreational drug use.

Fingers crossed for him. Sooner he's back the better.

[Mimmy]

Listening to Bellew he is quite keen on fighting Fury after Haye next year.

Maybe Fury could fight Bellew as his comeback fight next year leading to AJ towards the end of 2018 providing he beats Bellew.

[willardx]

BAN LIFTED. Let the carnival begin!

[Mighty Atom]

Weird thing - after all the farting about over the last year it's actually a pretty reasonable verdict.
You can actually argue Tyson's got off pretty lightly.
Got what is really a 2 year ban from his last fight when he could easily have got 4 years.
Gets the charge of refusing a drug test dropped as well.
Turns out the delay in hearing the case made no difference in the end.

Has the Fury's admitted to taking banned drugs then?

They've admitted taking something which led to a drug test fail. They've just claimed they don't know how they failed.

Very shady. Whatever happens now Fury has admitted breaking anti doping violations.

Probably took a plea bargain to save time. He KNEW he was getting his license back, his whole demeanour has changed in the last couple of months. Genuinely happy for the real King.

Great news, can't help but feel the Fury's know they've done something wrong as they were about to sue the ass outta ukad. Ukad have shit one and they've come to a compromise. Fury's lawyers have worked a bit like that mr loophole fella who gets all the celebs off driving bans, not by innocence but by mistakes the enforcement agencies have made in their process, in this case ukad.

Have no clue how Hughie fought Parker tho.

Maybe,due to the lack of action in the fight it was classed as an exibition

[bripez]

This whole episode is a complete shambles from beginning to end - there is no credibility in UKAD, the BBBofC or the Fury's.
