Daniel Kinahan has reportedly been dropped by Tyson Fury as his adviser and boxing promoter.

It comes amid mounting pressure over the Dubliner's links to organised crime.

Daniel Kinahan efforts to rebrand himself as a boxing promoter recently received a major boost after being credited by Tyson Fury for organising two fights with Anthony Joshua - bouts labelled the biggest in British boxing history.

The announcement resulted in backlash from Irish politicians, including the Taoiseach, who expressed concern over his past.

The High Court previously named Daniel Kinahan as a senior figure in the Kinahan organised crime gang.

Last week, KHK, a company owned by a Bahraini prince cut ties with him, and now the Telegraph reports Fury has dropped him as a negotiator.

Fine Gael TD Neale Richmond says it's a positive development, but questions remain over his wider involvement in boxing.

The parting of Fury and Kinahan means Bob Arum will take over future negotiations for the British boxer.
