Apparently Murray's camp had problems getting his VISA in order prior to the trip to the US due to his criminal history.
Bob Arum claims the Chavez Jr. camp knew nothing of the delay.
"They (Murray's management) didn't tell us about it. They thought that it wasn't relevant. We lost a lot of time. We can't rely on Murray for the fight.
"We just can't. It's unfortunate, but we can't. He would have been a good opponent and all of that sort of stuff, but it is what it is."
“I’d signed the contract and everything was agreed, so to be told I cannot box Chavez Jr because of my past is gut-wrenching. As a human being, I couldn’t have done any more to turn my life around over the last seven years.
"I have a fantastic wife, Gemma. We have two wonderful children, Archie and Amelia. They are my life and everything I do is for them.”
Stay tuned for further updates as they become available.
