Rehab?

It's money. He felt he deserved more than $1.1m to face Bute if he won, seeing as Kessler was offered over 3.

if it is money then that isn't the end of the world Scott. But why cancel cunnigham? he needs the tune up regardless

So the only heard of fighter on this weeks union prediction league has pulled out.

i predicted this one too, Pavlik ko in 7, on my site, the SWINE

Probably drink related, didn't the reprobate get loaded and have a scrap with his brother?

Holding them to ransom? To be honest I don't think he's that committed though, wasn't long ago he was arrested for a drunken brawl with his brother.

i wouldnt give him anymore chances, fans have paid hard earned money, and no they've been messed about. if it is over money 1.1m is a lot, and he should sort the problems out like a man, face to face, not hold them to ransom.

He needed that money to pay for rehab bills... The Betty Ford clinic ain't cheap boys!

i think it is boze related, poor Kelly if it is, good fighter but he will struggle to work his way back up to the top as it is, let alone anymore set backs

weak person if it is, how much motivation do you need to change?

Is it really 'poor kelly'?? £1m+ for a few months of sobriety n just turning up to do your day job and you throw it all away? No sympathy for me, most people would do 10 times more for 10 times less.

That said, this debate is really going to miss Trussman....

It was a two fight deal, that's why he pulled out of this one. Check out the Ring.

someone could fill in.......

what a poor soul, reminds me of when i used to work with peg legged, one eyed poor children, who suffered from alcholism, drugs and insomina- its not there fault, they just like the taste of JD and the evil world looks down on them for it. i think kelly should just be given the title, as not to make him feel bad, hes been through enough- MORE THAN YOU EVER WILL

You didn't mention being a liberal...

What happened to trussy?

hey hey hey haha. I feel for him, he has an affliction, not easy to deal with surely chaps.

I heard it was cancelled as less than 1000 tickets were sold.

No sympathy from me. MAde poor choices and must stand by them.

Here's an update from Ring Mag:

http://ringtv.craveonline.com/blog/168365-pavlik-said-on-radio-that-his-move-was-based-on-money-not-personal-issues

Apparently it's all because of the money and Kelly has now said he doesn't need to fight anymore.

Hmm...
