you lot are watching way too much TV!!
Mate, I think you're a bit confused. NO-one is claiming - i'm not anyway - Arthurs people PLANNED that the visa would be the fight scupperer. There's any number of reasons fights get called off.. and probably MANY reasons made public differ from the truth


The whole fight seemed iffy.

Arthur was rumoured to be pulling out a few days before Guzman had the apparent visa problems.

Heres what Guzman said about the visa - "I received my visa on April 24 and was ready to travel to Scotland the following day. I could have fought him on the original date.

"I don't know why a new date has to be found, other than the fact that Arthur is flat-out scared of me."
