Fury stated that he was heartbroken to have to withdraw from his fight against Jake Paul because of a bacterial infection in my chest and a broken rib.
"The beginning of my camp was so incredible and I never thought anything would come my way after a victory on Dec 18.
"I cannot express how disappointed I am now and I hope that we can get this fight rescheduled for the new year.
"I want this fight more than anything.
"I regretfully have to put my focus on recovery and a new reschedule date."
Frank Warren, Fury's promoter, said: "We are devastated for Tommy.
"This was an excellent opportunity for him to show the rest of the world his talents.
"Unfortunately, he had to withdraw now because he clearly isn't anywhere near a hundred percent.
"We will be working with Jake Paul's Team to see if it is possible to reschedule the event for the new year."
REPLACEMENT FOUND EARLIER
Paul will fight Tyron Woodley instead. The former UFC star is already in training and was offered $500,000 [PS377,000] to fight him if he wins a revenge knockout.
Twitter slammed The Problem Child: "It's official, Tommy Fury boxing's biggest b***h.
"I was shocked at the news, and it doesn't seem real to me now. He lost the largest bag of his entire life.
"Now he'll be watching me at home and paying me $60, instead of being paid millions to fight me."
"I've fought with broken noses, I've been sick, this is boxing."
