It's been a hugely frustrating year for boxing fans with a number of tasty heavyweight clashes - including Fury vs Oleksandr Usyk and Fury vs Anthony Joshua - falling by the wayside.Credit: GettyWhile Usyk's camp have been very vocal in blaming Fury for an undisputed heavyweight clash falling through, suggesting he doesn't intent to fight many of those he's called out on social media.

But Sulaiman issued a staunch defence of the WBC heavyweight champion, insisting that Fury isn't ducking anyone and suggesting his prospective opponents are the ones who are doing the ducking.talkSPORT's YouTube channel"They don't want to fight him. They want to abuse a monetary status and it's simply not fair.

"The WBC has been waiting. We allowed a lot of flexibility to try to do Fury vs Usyk which was looking very good for March. We had the flexibility to Fury vs Joshua, we ordered Deontay Wilder vs Andy Ruiz as a final elimination for the mandatory spot."I'm a little bit disappointed, I feel very much for Tyson Fury. It's not his fault, not anyone's fault but just the greed, the selling out, the putting out of price by the contenders.
