Bamba also highlighted the fact that there were separate contracts when he spoke following the weigh-in on Saturday.
"The situation at hand right now as we know it, Global Titans has cancelled my event due to a lack of being able to come to a mutual and amicable agreement," he said.
"I wasn't given what I wanted, they've been telling people they offered me a bunch of things, ultimately when I get home and there's less to worry about I will be more vocal about this.
"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.

"It's not right. I made weight, I did what I needed to do, I was willing to negotiate and make things happen."
So, it appears Bamba will not compete on the undercard of Mayweather vs. Deji.
Fury, on the other hand, seems set to face another opponent.
