UKAD oks Tyson Fury to fight

By Daily Sports on December 13, 2017

After 2 years out of the ring, former heavyweight champion Tyson Fury (25-0, 18 KOs) was given the green light by the UK Anti-Doping agency to continue his pro career, once he gets his boxing license back from the BBBofC.

Upon being told by UKAD that he could continue fighting, Fury took to Twitter to send this message to IBF/WBA heavyweight champion Anthony Joshua:

”Anthony Joshua, where you at boy? I’m coming for you punk. Ain’t no one blocking my path now!👊🏻”

Fury also plans on fighting fringe contender Tony Bellew, if he gets past David Haye in their rematch on May 5 in London, England.

As for Fury’s career, he’s now free to continue fighting following his agreement to accept a 2-year backdated ban, which conveniently for him ended Tuesday night.

“I’m a fighting man through and through and I’ve never backed down from anyone in my life and I was certainly not going to back down from fighting this dispute. Hughie and I have maintained our innocence from day one and we’re now happy that it has finally been settled with UKAD and that we can move forward knowing that we’ll not be labeled drug cheats. I can now put the nightmare of the last two years behind me,” Fury said
