Turki's tragic terminal tumour tidings
Turki recently revealed he has a brain tumour and will "forget his own name" in the next couple of years.
Which explains the rush to make all the fights
But has he made a mistake revealing this?
Eddie and Frank have been backing toward the ropes as Big Turki backed UFC Boxing into becoming a new monster
Do the Brits now play a waiting game with renewed confidence?

It was made public when he first dipped his fingers into boxing that he had major health issues.
I don't think the tumour was mentioned however..

Now he's put a purative timeline on it. Was that a mistake? Does it give succour to his frenemies?

That's crap. I feel sorry for anyone with that horrible illness. He's making his mark

Often if one is diagnosed with a brain tumor it's a matter of months before they pass.

Does this mean if he dies then Zuffa and all that he is funding will go ? With that sort of disease you can't choose yourself when you go, my Dad went in days
