john fury

[lillywhite14]

Any world champion who answers telephone calls and has a chat with whoever calls, and invites anyone to go jogging along the front at Morecambe with him, is my kind of man. How many millionaire footballers are cocooned in their own little universe ? Would we all be invited to run with , or phone Kell Brook, Amir Khan, etc - I don't think so.

Fury and his friends won't get any criticism from me, caravan to champion, enjoy spending your money big man !!

Can't help but like a bloke that has just won the heavyweight title but turns up for his post fight interview with sky wearing a suit bought fit for a tramp and with slazenger '100 pairs for a pound' socks on! Big difference from the likes of Floyd Mayweather who has zero charisma and is as shallow as a worms grave

Theres certainly no airs and graces about Tyson , which makes him very likable ... His dad on the other hand just comes across has a big mouth thug and bully , with a chip on his shoulder living of his sons glory ,,

Fury is a complete and utter moron but no doubt about it, boxing would be lesser with out him. That rant on channel 5 about Price needing ten plumbers to do him and Bellew being his gay lover still cracks me up.

[tedley]

I dont think tyson is a moron. It seems everything he says is tongue in cheek and so it has worked very well for him and good luck to him.
Its his idiot father who is the problem , banging on all the time about how travellers are the toughest , hardest people going.
He is a typical example of how most people view *gypos* . Thieves , liars, bullies , trespassing on other peoples property, shitting every where.
If he had half a brain he would take leaf out of Andy Lee's book , but as he is a moron he will continue to embarrass his son and his brother.

I dont think you know much about John Fury, considering the man has lived in his own home for many years. He's been a productive member of society. He's a fairly rich man. He isn't some squatter or all-around law breaker. I mean, outside of the incident where he blinded a man permanently, how often has he been arrested or incarcerated? I don't think he is a bad man. Nor do I think he's an idiot like you want to make him out to be. He just has a different dynamic than his brother Peter and the late Hughie. Like Peter said recently (in a matter of speaking) he's the scientist and John's the enforcer. But make no mistake, John Fury is NOTHING at all like the pisshead's on TLC and other shows. He's a self made man, and an honorable man.

So what that he's loud and charismatic? Last I checked that isn't a crime.

This is a superb argument.

[Nightmare Roy]

I've met plenty of Tavellers over the years and they were all pretty sound to be fair, my old man employed some to do work on his house, they did a good job for a fair price. I think papers like the mail are pretty much out to get anyone who isn't a middle class white Christian male.

In the same way that the Guardian gives everyone a pass except middle class white males who they continually attack.....

even by henry's standards, fvcking barking. fvcking 'honourable' indeed, how the fvck would you know, henry, I suppose you did some business with him on the basis of a handshake and a spit and he was as good as his honourable word? piss off you ridiculous gypsy fanboy, you, calling a total stranger honourable, how the fvck do you cook this sh1t up?

[johnswan1]

Either way it shows what they're like. Don't disbelieve what Fury said about drinking water offered to him in the changing room after the fight either.

How many fighters have faced Klitchko without questioning these little things? Wlads team only changed them because team Fury were genuinley prepared to walk away if they didn't.

Yeah, John Fury was the wrong man to cross when he told that promoter the wraps come off or they were walking away. "Are you threatening me?", damn right John Fury was. And they all would have walked out of that arena right then and there too.

Wasn't that Peter, not John?

I know Peter Fury rather well, having interviewed him a few times and maintaining a good friendship with the Fury and Gorman families on the whole. Every man, in my view, has made mistakes in his life. Everyone has a story in their life they would rather not tell. Far as I know, John Fury (outside of this incident) has never been a violent criminal. He has never been a thief. He has never been on the public dole. He's pretty much kept to his own self.

Look at Peter Fury, or the late Hughie Fury. Both men had run-in's with the law and done time. Peter in his day was rather wild and crazy, and not someone to mess with. Look at him now. Very proper, quiet, respectful and honest and straightforward. His brother John just happens to be a loud, brash, charismatic man. From what I understand of the incident, it was the other man who began the fight, restarted the row that happened twenty or thirty years ago and John beat the man senseless and unfortunately the man lost his eye in the process.

In the gypsy culture, it is general rule that men deal with issues amongst themselves and never bring the law into it. John Fury just so happened to be physically superior, and the man who wouldn't stop harassing him got more than he bargained for. Who among us hasn't been in a fight or situation that got out of control? I know I have. I've been beaten senseless, and I've also beaten people senseless.

But look at the man's life as a whole, before you judge. Far as I know of, he never did anything serious or violent before. He was a productive member of society. He fought for his country, representing his country, in the British title eliminators. He's not been the typical traveller shitting up places and taking anything from anyone. You may not like his brash talk, you may not like his antics---- but hey, what's made Tyson enormously popular, he learned from his father. I do not believe John Fury is a bad man. He's a man who would do anything for anyone he respected or cared about. Would give his shirt off his back to anyone who needed it. But, yes, he's not one to be crossed either.

[Nightmare Roy]

If he's never been on the "Public Dole" he's ok in my book

[coneye]

His opponent at the car auctions did'nt lose an eye ,, it did'nt fall out of his pocket and drop down the grid ,, HE was held down while it was GOUGED out , for fornicate sake ..

He's a big bloke and ex profesional boxer he beat the guy easily and did'nt have to go that far ,, what makes it worse he cried when getting sentenced , ,, Regards never being on the dole good luck to him but millions others hav'nt either ,, the question is HAS HE PAID TAX , after all he's been succesful in life owns his own house ect ect ..

You can apolagize for him all you want facts are , he's a loud mouth violent bully .

Not sure I'd believe all of that, it's the Newspaper most know for making stories up and manipulating people's words. They have also had a vendetta against travellers for as long as I can remember. Tyson has already said they made most of it up.

[forcefraser]

People seem to forget that big John was the best man at the car fair. He aint no feather duster man as he himself explained.

An eye gouging is not good, but he`s paid his time, never took so much as an aspirin whilst inside either.

I like listening to him, he`s a passionate guy with a real gift of the gab. Can talk for hours at the drop of a hat.

I don`t know them at all, but from what I`ve seen through interviews with most of the family they seem like a decent bunch to be fair. Well mannered and down to earth.

In this politically correct world of twitter and inter web, Tyson`s comments about homosexuals was ill advised, but that`s what he believes and at least has the conviction to say it.

Ali called Joe Frazier a gorilla and is heralded as the greatest athlete to have ever lived, Fury calls out bufties and gets hung out to dry......

[Coco]

Also if you listen to what he said he is taken out of context and was thrown under a bus by a headline grabbing journalist. Apparently a few things have been said since by the Fury camp and the jouro is pooping himself!

[MarkMcBurney]

He also called him an 'Uncle Tom' which is today's equivalent of far, FAR worse than anything Tyson has said.

I've met him at a car auction and he was extremely likeable and polite. However I have also seen him at the auctions fronting people up and intimidating anyone who dare to bid against him when bidding for a car. He is charismatic, polite and honourable but can also be a violent bully.

[Eddy]

He's defently a bread and butter that bloke. Something about him, unhinged and defly not to be messed with. I'd be more wary of "Big John" then his heavyeight champion son!

That said I don't think they should keep him away from Fury. They say it how they think it. Can't stand PR/PC trained people reading from a script. Even if what they say really offends people or myself, I still like that in a way; at least they're beign honest.

[lillywhite14]

He does seem a bit of a bully. I wonder if he is as loud and brash around Akinwande? Any footage of that fight?

I think he bought every copy of the fight and had them buried in a secret location.
