It's funny to see that Tyson Fury gets his history knowledge from a Carlsberg advert!Tarkus wrote:He claims Christopher Columbus said the world was round. I am outraged.
His father claims that you cant learn anything from books. But a man has to feel his head with something.Exoddus wrote:It's funny to see that Tyson Fury gets his history knowledge from a Carlsberg advert!Tarkus wrote:He claims Christopher Columbus said the world was round. I am outraged.
I agree.MightyWarrior wrote:
Tyson is definitely borderline nuts, which may, or may not, help him in this fight,
And I think he needs some help, because sometimes he sounds like a man on the edge.

i agree ,but wlad is to mentally strong for it to work i just hope he doesn't do a haye and talk a good fight then not performolij999 wrote:Tyson is deliberately trying to make Klitschko think that he is out of his mind - this is simply his variant of the trick that Ali pulled before the first Liston fight.

That's what I thought too when I read this. Plus it'll get some coverage and it'll feed into the gypsy warrior man from a bygone age rubbish that people seem to love. Whatever it takes to sell the fight, I think.olij999 wrote:Tyson is deliberately trying to make Klitschko think that he is out of his mind - this is simply his variant of the trick that Ali pulled before the first Liston fight.

I did think that, but I am not so sure, Fury is at best rather unusual. I reckon he's got ADHD myself, some of the shit he comes out with is stream of consciousness, in fact most of it is, there seems to be no filter.olij999 wrote:Tyson is deliberately trying to make Klitschko think that he is out of his mind - this is simply his variant of the trick that Ali pulled before the first Liston fight.

He's been a ranter for as long as I can remember. I remember when he was on Channel M years back with his dad, it was about the time he was trying to get an international vest for either gb or ire. He was going off about all sorts then too - all to unsettle Klitschko I'm sure.olij999 wrote:Tyson is deliberately trying to make Klitschko think that he is out of his mind - this is simply his variant of the trick that Ali pulled before the first Liston fight.

Not true. Fury has repeatedly expressed his reactionary, homophobic views on many occasions before. And to think that Klitchko will read that paper and suddenly decides to relax and under prepare is just silly.olij999 wrote:Tyson is deliberately trying to make Klitschko think that he is out of his mind - this is simply his variant of the trick that Ali pulled before the first Liston fight.

That's not my point. It's not the content of the views (as I agree Fury has made those points before), it is the apocalyptic "end of days" style of presentation that is the difference. It comes across as a rant, but not his usual style of rant. And the intention is obviously not to get Klitschko to under-prepare - Fury presumably wants to fill him with fear and get him to box scared. None of which will work at all, I suspect - it's all a bit Bray Wyatt and WWE.Tarkus wrote:Not true. Fury has repeatedly expressed his reactionary, homophobic views on many occasions before.

So he's tongue in cheek with homosexuals?Coco wrote:Most of what he says is tongue in cheek
I tend to concur. I'm not fond of bigots, however, I guess though he's fighting for the heavyweight title, not running for prime minister.Tarkus wrote:Yeah he added few wrinkles to the story, but essentially it is the same story few steps further down. World that allows evil gays is doomed. Very typical, if you know that type of people, religious zealots at the fringes of the society.
As much as I like Furys boxing I have to wonder do I really want this man as the heavy weight champion of the world.
