The Nevada State Athletic Commission has banned the two unbeaten heavyweight champions from facing off, NSAC executive director Bob Bennett told ESPN on Thursday.
“I think they are doing their job perfectly,” Fury told CBS Sports on Thursday.
“The press conference spoke for itself,” Bennett told ESPN.
“Quite frankly, that image, where you have two professional athletes pushing each other where somebody could get hurt is not keeping with the image of a major league sport and we’re a major league sport.”
Fury admitted that things were legitimately heated, saying, “we were almost at blows” as he and Wilder exchanged insults throughout the event.
