The fight’s off. Casimero has been busted using a sauna to lose to weight so the BBBC won’t sanction him to fight over here.

Assume that’ll mean he’ll be stripped. Wonder if they’ll try and get a replacement for the world belt.

I think it’s banned over here because it takes fluid away from the brain meaning the brain loses some support/cushioning when being punched.

If you can’t make weight without a sauna then I think you’re in the wrong division.

Daily Mail are reporting that Discovery/Eurosport have terminated the deal with Probellum. Originally had 2 fight nights left on their 5 show deal starting with Friday’s show being the first of the two.

Be surprised if Probellum even lasts until Friday, I reckon this show will be scrapped, Eurosport have bailed and IFL removed MTK from their sponsors(apparently) so I doubt they'll get involved, seen someone on twitter say looks like MTK have folded altogether, a lot of arse twitching going on for sure, just hope and pray Fury/Whyte doesn't collapse before Saturday, inshallah

Not sure mate, don't Probellum and MTK try to keep their distance anyhow so not to arise suspicion? Everyone suspected Kinahan was involved somehow with Probellum but it wasn't until some sports minister from Pakistan basically confirmed it by tweeting out pictures of him and Daniel and mentioning Probellum, tbh a lot of this goes over my head, shady bastards everywhere

It’s Interim belt. Surprised WBO haven’t just stripped Casimero.

Given what happened the last time they were meant to fight I’d be amazed if it if they don’t strip him. They’ve given him 48 hours to show cause for not stripping and the BBBC gave him paperwork when he landed in the U.K. telling him that he wasn’t allowed to use a sauna.

Wow!!!

IFL it is.
Apparently it was a non commercial deal with Eurosport. Does that mean that the fights were given to the channel for free ?

Well, non-commercial means: not having a commercial objective; not intended to make a profit.

So, Discovery may have still paid a fee, but it wasn't commercial on their end.. Possibly may have been done to drive sub numbers..
