No, it's not, but what are you getting at? I've been hammered a lot more than Tyson and I've never spoken like that. It's probably a genuine medical problem.deadpan wrote:His 'sore throat' isn't improving is it?

Hilarious? He's definitely a joke. I find him boorish and obnoxious.

I find the use of the word foreign hilarious. Guess that makes me one of those non pc types.

I love Tyson - whatever he says (and it comes from all angles if you're gonna politicise) his tongue is often in cheek, and even if not, I love the way he won't be drawn into restricting what he can say by 'political correctness' or what anyone else thinks.
Media and Leftists find it hard to deal with, as he doesn't inhale anyone's propaganda, just speaks what he believes.
On the one hand he wishes Muslims happy EId, and has tweeted himself in Islamic robes, he is against the war in Syria, he is also against racism, is an Irish traveller, shows solidarity for black and minority groups...
But then gets slated because he feels that God doesn't approve of homosexuality, thinks paedophilia is moving towards acceptable, thinks women should have a certain role in life etc etc
I don't defend all his opinions, but I defend his honesty and individuality. And he's been brought up in an insular, catholic, traditional gypsy society.... so it's no surprise that some of his views reflect that.
But the media and especially the left media can't deal with it as he can't be labelled and categorised. It's cognitive dissonance.
Good on Tyson for now kow towing to any specific politics.

Fury's a great character. Never thought I'd end up liking him but his comedy brings light to the fog and gloom that covers contemporary PR soundbyte sport.

Re: Fury is hilarious
Fury has every right to say what he wants, and people have every right to call him out on what he says. Since we're generalising, the problem with Righties* is that they think that their opinions are sacrosanct, and that freedom of speech does not extend to the right of reply.boxingknockout wrote:Media and Leftists find it hard to deal with, as he doesn't inhale anyone's propaganda, just speaks what he believes.
If people can't hack people calling out their opinions, can't defend those opinions, and resort to squeaking about 'political correctness' then maybe - just maybe - their opinions were shite to begin with?
(*And Lefties - the problem here is self-entitled numpties, not political persuasion.)

Political correctness in my opinion (that word again) is a contributing factor to the sorry state of society today. Fury is a an old fashioned guy that has old fashion opinions, so what. I for one would rather that than some ferret faced ponce so scared to insult anyone that he dare not utter a word for fear of the consequences.
In a world where kids are genuinely concerned about the number of likes they receive from fake friends they have never met, I think society has more to worry about than Fury calling some Albino bonced German guy "foreign" or saying he prefers women to be in the kitchen.

Fair enough - although Fury doesn't believe that everybody else has the right to say what they want.mickeyb wrote:Fury has every right to say what he wants, and people have every right to call him out on what he says.

He is very sensitive to criticism considering he is happy to give his own opinion on others.

Re: Fury is hilarious
Not really. I guarantee you I've done much, much more than fury can dream of along with smoking cigarettes with it and rarely ever have I ended up with a sore throat. You must be thinking of someone like Oscar.TheCobra wrote:Gives you a sore throat though. Known side effect.mickey1975 wrote:Original.TheCobra wrote:

Re: Fury is hilarious
Could be to much coke , alchohol , or even he keeps having a bad nights sleep ,, Although if i was his mate , i'd be telling him get to the doctor SOON has possibly , i say that based on 30 years ago i developed the same sort of raspy voice , they took me in and scraped my vocal cords , told me i was lucky , 5 years ago it came back , they took me in and cut of that punch bag thing at the bag of the throat told me i was lucky again ,
But my mate who i have gone to see in the hopital everyday for the last fornight was'nt , after 35 doses of radiation a bunch of kemo , they informed him its very agresive , he's now lay there with half his face cut away and a new tongue they made from his thigh. He was'nt lucky , what were the symptons ,, raspy voice just like Tyson

Re: Fury is hilarious
Of course it can. If it's so poorly thought out, illogical, hypocritical, half-arsed, or just demonstrably wrong, then it's a shite opinion.

I haven't got a problem with Fury expressing himself, and I have no time for people who said that he should be stripped of his belts, or those who want to silence anyone who disagrees with them. It does make me laugh when he bleats about somehow being oppressed by the PC Brigade when, for the most part, people are just calling him on his BS.
