Is this racist from Mr Fury

[Khaosai-Galaxy]

Yes, I always liked that one.

That and

[Ezzard]

It sort of feels very odd to me... Boxing fans... Don't you dare call each other names. But feel free to punch the shit out of one another.

Don't get me wrong, I'm just as bad.

Can you imagine a Suarez-Evra style situation going to court?

- "Your Honour, he used racial insults against me!"

- "What were you doing at the time?"

- "Punching him in the face, Your Honour."

Excellent post, lovely turn of phrase and nice build to the punch line.

Well done, sir.

I see what your saying, but to be honest I don't find the pre-fight preening to be particularly entertaining. All this posing and trying to look hard does nothing for me. I like to watch fights with a beer or two. What I don't want to see is people acting like each fight is personal, and showing off pre-match. That just gets tiresome.

Depends who's doing it and where

Ali on Parkinson or Tyson Fury on twitter.

Fair point.

But when Ali was doing it, it was something new and different. Now people are just copying him, and it gets a bit dull. We've seen it all before.

[Final round]

Fury is trying to distance himself from the fact he's ducking Haye by being racist. He's cleverer than he looks.

That is a seriously cryptic contribution.

Sorry I overshot irony and landed in nonsense.

[fasteddie]

Just read his latest outbursts on twitter.

'Listen up pussy. Sign the contract. So we can get down to real business in the ring. 50/50 agreed 6 week ago! Lets fight & now mr jungle.'


I'm starting not to like Tyson very much. I never really rated the guy but now starting to throw trash all around. Its a bit pathetic really from a grown man who thinks.

' Im the best HW in world!!'

are you having a fornicating laugh??? racist??? get the fornicate out of here,i fornicating hate the racist wagon that goes on in this country. he was referrin to im a celeb you fuckin weapon

[NazNaci1]

Only joking. Its not racist. He is just being a cock again and he will get sparked out, should they ever fight but I have serious, serious doubts.

[macaca]

Racist ugly pikey plastic paddy cunt, how dare he call Chocolate Midnight Mr Jungle?

Ali on Parkinson or Tyson Fury on twitter.

I think that Ali's behaviour around this stuff in the 60's gets brushed under the carpet. He has changed his views now, but I don't love what he said about race at the time, much as I love him. In other news, is it possible that Michael Parkinson is responsible for Ali suffering Parkinsons?

[Lenny]

No, as he never touched him due to the firm belief it would turn his hand black.

Sorry I overshot irony and landed in nonsense.

I am absolutely stealing this for future use

Are you being serious in your intent to steal it, or just ironic?

[bripez]

(Curve ball) would you view it as racist if Haye had not been in I'm a Celeb?

Not a very curvy ball! Yes, there would be no other explanation.

So it is feasible that it was a racist jibe delivered in such a way that almost everybody would presume it was an I'm a Celebrity jibe?

My thoughts are as above.

I too hate the "looking for racism in every comment" approach, but as Fury and his team have played the "racism card" on a number of occassions I have no sympathy for him if people interpret his comments in this way.

[TJ77]

Im no fan of Fury and he is an idiot but he was referring to im a celebrity .
Trying to insinuate Haye is a personality more than a boxer these days.
Haye will hammer Fury he knows that thats why the fights not been made.
He ducked Price and if Price hadnt been sparked it would be Price Fury would be calling but ducking.
He is a f***ing joke but not a racist imo.

I spoke to Tysons father in law this morning and he told me the fight was signed up for, in September.

If David Haye has agreed to the 80/20 split I will give you the money myself.But as far as sources go im assuming his father in law is a traveller who can never tell a lie chavvy moosh as god is his witness.
Haye will hammer him he is running his mouth while running away.

[palooka]

He is a jeweller in Doncaster town center; he told me that it was agreed and 50/50, signed for September; he doesn't go to the fights but watches on telly; he's Paris' dad and is a sound and decent sort

[WildWaylon]

Yawnsome this country's obsession with racism, it's about the fact he was in I'm a Celebrity, funnily enough it was in the jungle. Too many jumped up morons in this country ready to shout racism every 5 minutes.

I agree, quite obviously a reference to the program and nothing else. Why do people have to look for other interpretations? Anyway Fury is not in Davids class, only with his gob but nothing else.

[ttornado]

Obv not racist.
