ÃÛÑ¿´«Ã½

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 ÃÛÑ¿´«Ã½'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.
