The American stepped onto the scales first and came in at 174.6lbs.

Tommy followed up, but was 181.4lbs.

On fight day itself, Bamba has now claimed that he and Fury were given separate contracts with different weight limits for the bout, unbeknownst to him.

After failed negotiations to settle the issue, the fight is now off.

It is currently unclear if Fury will instead face a new opponent.

Bamba told : "Global Titans have cancelled my event due to a lack of being able to come to a mutual, amicable agreement.

"I wasn't given what I wanted...

"At the end of the day there were two separate contracts for the weight like I've been stating, which is not fair.

"I don't know whose fault that is, I'm not placing blame on anybody, but it's not right.

"I made weight, I did what I needed to do, I was willing to make a negotiation and make things happen if things were done the right way."

Bamba continued: "John Fury actually met me outside, he was trying to make it work.

"Then we were interrupted by a representative from Global Titans and we were told that the fight was off.

"Fury camp was trying to make it work with me, then all of a sudden there was a power move played and we were pretty much told to stop negotiations, they no longer cared.

"They weren't willing to pay themselves and that's where we are."
