World heavyweight champion Tyson Fury has been stripped of his IBF title, one of three he won by beating Wladimir Klitschko, after agreeing to a contracted rematch with the Ukrainian instead of fighting the IBF's mandatory challenger. "It's true he's been stripped of his IBF belt," Lindsey Tucker, IBF championships chairman, told the BBC on Tuesday. "Our challenger was Vyacheslav Glazkov, but instead Fury's gone and signed a rematch clause with Wladimir Klitschko." The 31-year-old Ukrainian Glazkov has a 21-1 record.
