ARTHUR QUASHES INJURY RUMOURS
http://www.theherald.co.uk/sport/boxing ... injury.php
Apr 21 08,
Alex Arthur, the WBO interim super-featherweight champion from Edinburgh, yesterday moved to quash rumours that he is set to withdraw from his scheduled world title bout with champion Joan Guzman of the Dominican Republic.
Arthur was reacting to claims that he has suffered an undisclosed injury ahead of the May 3 contest at Meadowbank Sports Arena following a period of intensive training in America.
The 29-year-old challenger dismissed such claims as "complete nonsense", insisting: "It is time to quash these mischievous rumours once and for all. There is no foundation to them whatsoever.

"I don't know where they are emanating from or who is behind them, but I can assure you that I am A1. Any suggestion that I am suffering from an injury is nonsense.

Lol. You can be sure that when Arthur loses, he definitely 'wasn't right' in there, shaking off a 'nasty infection' with training having 'not gone great' etc etc etc.
