Tyson Fury at a rave in Anglesey

[lefty]

Tyson's loyalty to Meaty Mick has been a hindrance. Even with this promotion. The prices are sky high and the average man just won't pay £400 for a ticket. As I've said before, I could fill a coach with people with £80 tickets if any actually existed. Even Issac Lowe can only get £185's.

I'm guessing a large part of those prices is due to the lost revenue from not being on PPV? They're trying to make up the difference with increased prices?

There's also a few well behaved travellers who I've spoken to who are not going because they "can't be doing with all **** there" and name loads of different groups who they'd rather not be around all drunk. Travellers never sell that well because half won't go because they can't stand the other half. Wharton was different because most his fan base was non traveller.

Hopefully he didn't take any pills, can't imagine anything worse than training for a title fight with a come-down.

Going to a dance festival without pills?

Haha spot on. Not sure how ANYONE could enjoy something like that totally sober from beer or anything else.

Spoke to a lad who was working security there...

"He was off his head doing handbrake turns in fields, not arsed one bit "

I replied "off his head as in just being the hyperactive version of Fury?"

"No. He was twatted mate"

He's been downing pints in Manchester as well now according to some sources...

Micky i gotta disagree with you for once , Wharton was someone i looked up to when i was boxing growing up ,like many a traveling lad i used to go to many of his pro fights and we used to fill out them events that he was topping , i remember the Eubank fight travellers took over hotels and city in manchester that night .
Wharton had a very big gypsy fan base , and from i have seen far bigger than what BJS has lets put it that way

Yes, he did, but was at least just as popular with gorgers in York and Leeds.
