British light heavyweight Tommy Fury, cousin of WBC heavyweight champion Tyson Fury, will enter the ring tonight, November 13, on the undercard of Floyd Mayweather's exhibition fight against blogger Deji. His opponent will be Rolly Lambert (15-1-1, 12 KOs), who agreed literally in the last hours before the fight to replace Paul Bamba, with whom Tommy was supposed to fight initially. Bamba refused to fight Fury due to the latter's superiority. Tommy Fury vs Lambert will be an exhibition fight.
Recall that Fury exceeded the light heavyweight limit by 3 kg, and Bamba said that only new “financial conditions” could force him to enter the ring with such an overweight of the opponent. Bamba and Fury noted that they allegedly had different contracts for a duel with different specified weight limits, and Fury claims that he fulfilled the conditions of his contract by weight.
