He used the term "black". Most reasonable people would accept that applies to people of African descent. I don't recall an industrial scale slave trade in Europeans that lasted until the 19th century. Or any other "colour". Racism is an idiot's outlook, there is after all only one race on this planet, the human race.

You can't relate all racism to slavery, though I do understand your point. For instance, in Europe the Slavs (not slaves) were subject to high levels of racism. Religion is a major factor too. It's a bottomless pit of a subject

I don't know that answer but it's obvious that this fat idiot does! He's a disgrace and should be reprimanded just like I have been in the past and I've done nothing near that level! Board needs to get a grip of him ASAP!

Well said Larry.

Exactly. Beautiful piece of spin.

It was a pathetic little comment on the internet, it is not as if he beat his wife or something.

I actually like Tyson and think he is a breath of 'fresh' air, most of the time. But this and his recent behaviour and performances seem to indicate he needs some form of help as he looks to be a accident waiting to happen both in and out of the ring.

Horse is just looking for a reaction, don't waste your breath.

Exactly right mate. Don't feed the troll.

And despite being a huge Tony Bellew fan am I the only one who find's it ironic that he is criticizing other fighters for their comments and behaviour? Pot, Kettle, (final word moderated in case some accuse me of racism).

Double standards ? or part time racist drama queens

If it's the exact same posters in both instances then fair enough, if not then that's a very hollow argument.

To say because some posters on a website didn't condemn the use of those slurs that others can't pull up Fury on his comments would mean next time someone used P!KEY or Gypp0 they could say no travellers can protest because of what Fury said.

If you're going to take exception to the terms P!KEY or Gypp0, which clearly you do, then you have to take the high ground and condemn any racism. Otherwise it's you who is being a hypocrite.

Reading that back sounds like I'm having a dig at you personally, which wasn't the intention. Just that two wrongs don't make a right.

The point i was making in my post was that everyman and his dog on this forum have had a dig and a giggle at the racist comments made toward Furys ethnicity !
Gypsy's and travelers get none stop racist abuse on here and this is deemed as socially acceptable yet as soon as any slight comment is made toward blacks these same posters get their knickers in a twist over it
Its hypocritical thats all i am saying .
