World Heavyweight champion Tyson Fury reportedly failed a drugs test for cocaine use on September 22nd, according to ESPN.com chief boxing writer Dan Rafael.
Undefeated Fury was due to fight Wladimir Klitschko on October 29th in a rematch for the two belts that the Brit won against his opponent last November. However, Fury had to pull out of the fight for a second time due to being 'medically unfit'.
According to the report, ESPN have been told by several sources that the heavyweight champion failed a VADA regulated random urine test taken in late September.
The news will almost certainly lead to Fury being stripped of the WBA and WBO titles that he currently holds.
