..fabrication, conspiracy theories, etc. are the last on my mind, but I still haven't seen any sprained ankle proof..

There's a picture.

Seen it,it looks a right mess, no way he could walk on it let alone fight.

On his twitter page this morning he said he was off to the Euro's to have it. Can't be having much trouble putting weight on it.

Being able to walk on it and being able to train on it are two very different things.

of course he can't fight like that, but for me
it is a first to hear a boxer suffered such
injury in camp. shoulders, back, all well and
good in boxing, but spreading your ankle?
there is a reason why football players have
spread ankles and boxers have torn shoulders.

wait a minute, i remember a toe ... seems like
a british thing ... :) ...

anyway, two brexits in one week ... weird.

How Fury got injured is virtually irrelevant. Fact is he is injured and although capable of heading off to the Euro it has impacted his preparation for the fight.

...anyone having more information?

Payback for when Vlad postponed the first fight.

Absolutely.

I do love the way that the Fury's have tied Wladimir up in knots from before their first fight.

Wladimir & his team are so used to being in control of everything that they just cannot handle this.

This postponement is another thing that will wind up Klitschko & probobaly benefit Fury more.

Last I looked they were the only news outlet running with the story.

I don't know if he is, but he could put a brace or something ion his ankle for walking about.

man wrote:me too. i am just surprised this happens
to a pro so short before a fight. this kind
of injury is a frequent result of sports like
football with a lot of fast running, stopping
and turning. i am just surprised you get this
from skipping, running or sparring.

when i had this, it was always from fast sprints
and sudden turns. i am not saying it is not legit
and me writing about it in the first place is more
result of being pissed with fury's weird appearances
i guess.

Is this a poem?

Sadly, there will be probably (again) more action in pre-fight activities like press conferences, interviews, sudden postponements than during actual fight. No surprise people do not care much about postponing a fight no one is interested in watching anyway (if you are British or Ukrainian, you are excused ).

A fight "no one is interested in watching" you say? You have got to be joking!

It doesn't promise to be a pretty fight. But millions will watch it.

Fury even bought the lads a drink - 200 of them:

Tyson Fury buys 200 Jagerbombs for England fans in Nice as world champion parties at Euro 2016 despite ankle injury

World heavyweight boxing champion Tyson Fury has had an expensive round - buying drinks for a bar crammed with England fans in Nice.

Fury, wearing an England jersey, arrived unannounced in Nice's historic old town on Sunday, the evening before England plays Iceland in the round of 16 at the European Championship.

Fury was mobbed by the fans and led them, pied piper-like, into a nearby bar before buying Jaegerbombs for them all.
