It kills people to see others get on in life
People can't cope with it! They think he grew up with nothing...
Fury may be comparatively well off, but he's thrown away the chance to earn tens of millions and instead earns seven grand sat on his arse in a Jury's Inn. It's idiotic to suggest that, because he's always had a few quid, becoming a fat laughing stock in the prime of his career is a good idea.
It 8s s shame fury seems to have rather squandered his talent. It's maybe already too late, but maybe he was more interested in winning the title than the pressure of being champ. If it's not for him, better he finds something that gives him a bit of joy in his life. God knows it's hard to find

Perhaps a fair point but his mental health claims are nonsense anyway. The WBA and WBO asked for evidence so he'd not get stripped. His 'legal team' (read: his money laundering uncle and eye gouging dad) said this would be provided. It wasn't, and he was stripped. The whole basis of Tyson being unwell is Tyson saying he's unwell.
It's a convenient excuse for a guy who's taken a promising career and chucked it in the bin. Now he's making 7k a pop doing Sunday dinners on Teeside whilst Joshua makes eight figures a fight selling out Wembley. If anyone is getting upset here it's the Fury fans facing that fact.
Could it be that some of Tysons issues stem from him not really fitting in with how his old man and uncle really are?
Tyson and Hughie and Tysonβs brothers etc all seem like nice, decent fellas whenever you see them chatting, especially away from boxing. Just normal lads who like having the craic
Iβve always had the feeling that John Fury is a pretty poor influence on his son and only adds pressure, stirs the pot etc
The only thing is he still continually calls people out still saying he'd beat them all easy...which maybe true but he ain't fighting anyone looking like he does at the moment so if it was about proving who's best again, I'd be concentrating on that personally.
Its his life and who is anyone to judge....if I genuinely believed I could still do it I'd personally be working hard to get back......but on the flip side I'd take 7 grand all day for talking about my life to people over a nice lunch.
I agree nothing embarrassing about it, we would all take that money for sure...I just wish he wouldn't call everyone out all the time trying to stay relevant without seemingly making any inroads into getting fit again...

It's taking the 7k when he could get 10m for a Joshua fight that people are wondering about.
