Fury McDermott II Postponed Again

Looks like the highly anticipated rematch between Tyson Fury 10-0(8) and John McDermott has once again been postponed. They were rescheduled already to face one another at the end of this month on May 22nd in Manchester, but according to McDermott's promoter Frank Warren, the fight has been rescheduled once again for the end of June as per the BBB of C's orders. Supposedly, Fury's promoter Mick Hennessey for reasons unknown as of yet requested another extension. The British board is angry and is giving room for the fight to take place by the end of next month at the latest. The proposed new date for the rematch will be June 11th..

Fury won the British heavyweight title last September when he beat McDermott by a controversial points win. He was ordered to have a rematch because of this controversy, but due to injuries he sustained in his next fight, Fury was unable to fulfill that rematch request and was stripped of his title.

Since then unbeaten Derek Chisora has become the British champion and easily beat a faded Danny Williams in his last match. So, this rematch will be a final eliminator for the winner to take on Chisora, which will be a great match.

Tyson Fury Quotes

"You have to take the good with the bad and Mick has been good to me, so I'm not thinking about looking for another promoter. What I do need though is to fight more often. One fight in eight months is not enough. I've not even had much sparring.

"This fight [with McDermott] has been called off about five times and I don't know what's going on. I have to get my career moving."

Fury Blasko Fight Video

This is the full fight video for Tyson Fury's last fight against Hans-Joerg Blasko on March 5th, 2010 in which he easily handled the equally large Blasko within the 1st round. The referee stopped the fight after the second knockdown by Fury. Here is the video:

Fury Blasts Blasko In 1

Tyson Fury easily dispatched with heavyweight Hans-Joerg Blasko (9-3-0 coming into the fight) inside 1 round via a KO victory which was the chief supporting bout to the main card of Sykes vs. Morris for the British Super Featherweight title in Huddersfield.

This is what Fury said before the fight about his opponent..

“Just like my team Manchester United, I need to make a point this weekend. I’ve been away and it’s time to return back to my slot as the number one domestic heavyweight, in the premier league of boxing.”

“Forget that other London rival, Derek Chisora, he’s just been keeping my seat warm. While he’s been snogging men, I’ve been sparring them. Once I’m done with Blasko on Friday night, I’ll maybe have another fight before resolving the McDermott situation once and for all.”

“In my opinion it’s no surprise Danny Williams swerved Chisora. After all he has a wife and kids and you know, that’s not his thing.” laughed Fury “I’ve been saying for a while I would knock out Chisora, but maybe I should offer to put him to bed, that may be the right approach for a man of his inclination.”

“But joking aside, if you’re reading this Derek, I’ve got a big smack on the lips waiting for you at the end of the year if you’re up to the job.”

Here's what Tyson Fury had to say about losing the title and much more:

"I'm sick about it, but The BBB of C wouldn't give me any more time. My hand is still only about 80-percent. Two specialists have recommended I have an operation and it looks like I'll have to [have one]. The Board said they will match McDermott and Chisora for the vacant title and I'll get the winner in a final eliminator for the British. I won't lose my position and it gives me hand more time."
