FRANK WARREN COLUMN: Tyson Fury's health is most important but can he come back stronger?


 
CAN Tyson Fury come back stronger if he beats his demons?
 
The WBO and WBA heavyweight king had to postpone his scheduled rematch with Wladimir Klitschko on October 29.
 
It was not good news for BoxNation as we were excited about broadcasting the huge clash.
 
 Then reports emerged today claiming Fury failed a VADA test for cocaine. Another blow for the fighter.
 
 I am totally against performance enhancing drugs in sport.
 
 Fury has obviously got problems and the primary concern is for his health with all that has gone on recently.
 
 The big bruiser has not won friends over the last year for his controversial comments and some of his judgment is poor.
 
 But he is the best heavyweight out there and it is a great shame he cannot fight.
 
 He can be physically in good shape but he can’t compete if his head is not in the game.
 
 It has been such a rollercoaster for him over the last year with winning the title, rematch delays and the drug allegations against him.
 
 I have no idea how it will all pan out but I hope he can get the treatment he needs and get back to his best as he is such a talented fighter.
 
 How long he will now be out remains to be seen, so that will determine how much of an effect this all has on his career.
 
 As usual everyone jumps on the bandwagon to criticise him, like Eddie Hearn saying, ‘He won’t fight again’, ‘He will be stripped’ and plenty else.
 
 That is not for him to decide.
 
 That is down to the governing bodies to consider when they see the medical report and also the claims from VADA.
 
 In the meantime, Hearn should be focusing on getting an opponent for Anthony Joshua on November 26 as I believe they have yet to secure one.
 
 People should wait until the dust settles on the Fury situation before passing judgment.
