Could Fury have Kept his IBF Belt?

World heavyweight champion Tyson Fury has been stripped of his IBF title less than two weeks after winning it.

The British fighter declined to make a mandatory defence against Vyacheslav Glazkov, but will instead face Wladimir Klitschko in a rematch.

Kathy Duva is Glazkov's promoter and she told the Â鶹¹ÙÍøÊ×Ò³Èë¿Ú's Ade Adedoyin that she offered Fury's camp a number of options, which would have enabled him to keep the IBF belt, but his team declined.
