Bamba 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.

Fury's new opponent Lambert is 15-1-1 as a pro, though this exhibition won't add to his record either.

On Sunday, 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.”
