I travelled to Düsseldorf to watch it live in the stadium. And bar the result.. It was a little disappointing..
Or he may be heavier just because he was lazy.

That's a ridiculous thing to say... Heavyweight champ of the world being lazy for the biggest fight of his life??? Ludicrous.. If he's heavy it's for a reason, if he's lighter it's for a reason.. They are a very educated team/family! They don't do cutting corners full stop.. I hope that clears that up for you.
So, you are claiming that he got all that fat around his waist now not because he is lazy ??? If he wanted to be heavier on purpose, we would see some muscle for a change.

It's well known that Ricky Hatton put on huge amounts of weight inbetween fights, and always got back to fight weight in time.. Who knows how good he could have been if he stayed in shape all year round.. But that's now just for speculation.. Plus it's a lot harder to do for the lighter weights..
294 to say 254 that's 40 pounds in 8 weeks.
Fury is mid 20's and could do it with relative ease .

Where did I write 'classy'? You appear to be interpreting rather than reading my comment. I wouldn't call that clownish so much as inane.
Tone of voice? Surely you mean inflection? Not that either would convey my meaning any better than just reading my comment without any preconceived idea that I must be a 'hater'.
As for your ASSUMPTIONS and name calling. I'll suggest AGAIN that you try following your own advice.
It is quite amusing that after less than 100 posts you've already degenerated into an argumentative nuthugger.
I get it, I do... you love Tyson Fury, he can do no wrong. And anyone who doesn't share that opinion is just plain wrong and/or out to bring him down.

tyson fury doesn't need anyobody
to make himself look bad or at least
weird. i totally liked the guy until he
came up with his macho thing towards
his wife. that made me kind of 'ok, a
little weird. after all it is not 1892.'
but still, fun guy, kind of liked him.
press conference with wlad. overweight
lazy asshole talking not even trash, but
some weird BS.
enough for me. thank you very much
mr fury, you successfully entered the
chambers of public obscurity. better
make real great fights, otherwise you
are nothing, not within the ring and
not outside.

Had to fight 3 world title eliminators.. Over a space of 5+ years.. Had fighters pull out against him on multiple occasions.. And you call that easy from your armchair...
my bad. i hear your argument. what

3 eliminators and multiple pullouts

I'm saying what he's says is clearly aimed at ruffling the feathers of people like you! Did you not hear his apology about it all.. It's tongue in cheek.. Off the cuff.. He doesn't really mean it.. I use Muhammad Ali as a comparison because he came out with far more offending comments when he was champ and nobody batted an eye lid.. He then converted to a Muslim.. Who by the way like their women to be covered from head to toe with only their eyes showing.. Do you support that too!! Get on another politically correct bandwagon.. Find another lamb to slaughter. Your " he's a bad guy" argument holds no weight with me..

Well quite clearly
you didn't read what I said, as you are ranting about unconnected matters.
I raised one point and one point only; that you described Tyson Fury's comments as not being "old-fashioned" opinions. Tongue in cheek or not, what could be more old fashioned then suggesting women have no place outside the kitchen and suggesting that legalising homosexuality will cause the Christian devil to take over the earth? Nothing about the rightness or wrongness of Fury. I haven't for a moment suggested he's a bad guy. I just want to know how
you can claim those opinions aren't old fashioned.

Let me repeat again!! Old fashioned views are boring as poo!! So why all the feathers so ruffled by them?? There's nothing wrong with having an old fashioned view.. It doesn't have to be exciting, right, or wrong, it's just an opinion, and nobody has the right to scrutinise it just because they have a more modern view! Your opinion is "gay is ok". the oldest book I can think of "the holy bible" would say different.. After all.. God made "Adam and eve".. NOT "Adam and Steve" for example..
Why are you attributing opinions to me I haven't expressed, and then trying to argue with me about them? Please quote one line I have written that would allow you even to guess at my opinions of homosexuality. You appear to think that anyone who takes issue on you with one point must necessarily disagree with you on everything you believe.
To return to my actual point, you originally claimed people offended by Fury's opinions were boring, and that "old fashioned opinions are as boring as poo". Now, it seems, you are agreeing that Fury's opinions are old fashioned, and therefore also boring. Therefore the only coherent position I can draw from your rantings is that you think Fury is boring, and people offended by him are also boring. Which makes me question why you are expending so much time on it.

"Side note" il be the first to admit my writing ability is not the greatest by any stretch, I'm also under no illusions that I'm highly educated.. Far from it in fact.. But I feel I get my points across and I'm understood at least to a degree.. All opinions are different and I have no problem with any.. What's wrong with a healthy argument??
You're all over the place. Respecting an accomplishment has nothing to do with 'getting behind Tyson Fury'. You asked why the British public aren't getting behind Fury. Many perfectly reasonable examples of the 'why' have been given to you, but for some reason you've chosen to argue about them. Fury can be boring, ugly and dirty in the ring. Fury has also been bigoted, disrespectful and crude outside of the ring.
I'm not a nuthugger -- and the word is ilk. And I don't have to be gay, black or a woman to find homophobia, racism or sexism ignorant.
This isn't a healthy argument. This is you trying to spin the facts to mitigate Fury's nonsense. Just because you're of the opinion that bigoted comments shouldn't be taken seriously, and it was all tongue in cheek chuckles, doesn't make you right.
If you didn't have a problem with other people's opinions you wouldn't be calling them names.

The idea that I, or anyone else, should ignore bigotry that doesn't directly apply to me is not something I can agree with.
I should ignore the holocaust because I'm not a Jew? Apartheid was fine because I'm neither South African or black?
If you want to forget Fury's bigoted comments then that's up to you. However, don't expect anyone else to accept your reasoning for doing so.
As for blaming the media? Nonsense. If climb into a tigers cage you don't blame the tiger for biting you.

Not kissing Fury's chocolate starfish because you think everyone should is hardly shedding tears for injustice.

It doesn't bare thought or even comparison.. It's outrageous to suggest they are even from the same planet of evil.. How high is that horse your on.. Those shocking acts of humanity that you've highlighted are some of the worst in the history of mankind.. Yet I, and millions of other British who were not directly affected by it fail to shed tears over it. Stay in your own lane, and worry about what effects you, your existence, your family and your life. Busying yourself with other people of no relation to your owns problems is the recipe for an early grave.. Take light hearted comments with a pinch of salt and move on.. Taking them as gospel is no good for your health.. That's a big problem with the world today.. Busy body's over thinking and over reacting to things that don't effect them.. Side note.. Should "anders breivik" have human rights after he ended the lives of 75 men women and children... The answer is no clearly! The fact is he has human rights and is taking the justice system in Norway to court.. Yes court.. And the sad point is he'll probably win too.. I dunno.. You do the math.. Oh protector of feelings..
Have you never heard the term 'the thin end of the wedge'. The 'evil' of the holocaust was only possible because lot's of people who weren't bigots didn't do enough to stop lots of people who were. The comparison is extreme, but quite valid.
It costs me nothing to write that I find anyone espousing homophobic and sexist views ignorant.
Do you think gay people were laughing along with Fury's 'light hearted' comments? I'm sure being a devout Christian he was only joking about his faith.
So is it just Breivik who shouldn't have human rights or all convicted murderers and terrorists like the Birmingham Six, Nelson Mandela and Nick Yarris for example? The problem with removing Breivik's human rights is that it sets a precedent. You do the maths, oh narrow minded and shortsighted one.

Haha quoting Fred Durst, chocolate starfish, are we back in '99 again?
Joshua isnt some poor crack baby who grew up on the poverty line with no mother and father, he chose to sell drugs out of choice not necessity. He could have gone to mcdonalds and got a job but i guess he wasnt humble enough for that. AJ nuthugging shining through.
When joking about things like women in the kitchen and his wife seems to be very happy everytime shes interviewed and he calls homosexuals yet is happy to lock arms with gandalf and share it to the world then yea maybe it is time to put the pitch fork down and rethink things.

Fury is safety first. Compare Fury's DULL fight with Kevin Johnson to Anthony Joshua's. Tyson "The New Safety Pin" Fury.
