The Eurosport Klitchsko card this weekend....

Post by ILikeBeer »

They confirmed on Twitter that Tyson Fury is in the studio.

:doh:

That's going to have people turning off, isn't it?

I wouldn't imagine studio guests make much of a difference for most fans when deciding whether or not to watch a boxing card, it's not something I'd even think to check. I'll be happy to see Fury in the studio though, he offers something different to the usual pundits & is good entertainment.

Who is in the studio has never played any role in whether or not I watch a fight.

People find Fury entertaining?

What, even when he speaks?

This can't be for real, surely? He's such a fornicating knob.

Seriously, mates of mine who don't even really like the sport will book themselves in for dinner at ours on Tyson Fury nights. Even the women love to watch him fight...and they pretty much actively dislike boxing.

I can't understand that. Is Tyson Fury really that likeable? I mean, to anybody?

I can understand boxing fans watching him when he's on free to watch telly, but people who aren't interested in boxing? Tuning in for that prick?

The only women I'd expect to be interested are the ones he's fighting. :lol:

Honestly, mate.

My best friend, who just loves all sports, is seriously pissed off with me because another mate booked himself and his wife and kids over to ours for the Chisora fight.

I asked my best mate why he likes Fury and he said because he doesn't think he's really malicious. It's all tomfoolery. And his antics have a half-baked quality which makes them disarming.

I believe you, I just can't understand the opinion that Tyson Fury interviews provide entertainment. :lol:

How does Joe Calzaghe pulling out of a fight make Tyson Fury entertaining? :confused:

It takes one to know one. :lol:

Actually, no. That's probably not true. You don't have to be as big a div as me, to notice the colossal divvery provided by Fury.

Like him or loathe him, Tyson Fury's achieved a relative level of crossover fame now. His fights, as technically flawed as they are, are regularly action packed and his personality is eccentric and outspoken. When he sang in the ring after beating Cunningham I had loads of people wanting to chat to me about him who would never usually bring up boxing. He's a character!

I think you'd have to be a pretty joyless individual to not see the appeal to be honest.
