A deeply damaging day of chaos for boxing began with the biggest domestic heavyweight fight in the annals of the British ring — the world title clash between Tyson Fury and Anthony Joshua — being officially pronounced deceased.
Then the grim spectre of drugs left the British Boxing Board of Control feeling they had no option but to cancel permission for Chris Eubank Jr and Conor Benn to fight on Saturday.
