Had a word with Tyson Fury over the weekend. He had plenty to say! Some of the stuff he had to say about David Price (second part, including Price and David Haye opinions, will be out from Thursday) was comical. Comes across as a decent bloke

That's funny, i thought he always comes across as a twat.

Matthew Ellis ? The fat blubber Enzo sparked ?

"It's fair to say that big men of a caucasian persuasion haven't been pulling up many trees since but one man could be about to change all that."

I stopped reading after that!

Forgiving me if I am incorrect but arnt ALL the current heavyweight title holders "of a caucasain persuasian"??

The world really is Fury's oyster in as much as he's a young heavyweight who can really fight. And he's white.

He's white? Then consider me well and truly on the bandwagon.

The days of a Great White Hope are well and truly gone, people are now looking for a Great American Hope

Good point well made.

Still doesn't really tell me much about him, will be interesting to see what he actually says about Pricey and co.

LOL.. Did the person who wrote this article not realise that all the Heavyweight World Title holders at present are tall white men who don't have a lumberjack working background?

Tyson is hot at the moment for sure, but let him have a few more fights and step up a level, then we will have a clearer picture.

So he's fighting on Saturday and then 2 weeks later? Good lad.

Shocking angle to take up.....staggered.

Exactly my thoughts, very surprised ITV put this up!

To be fair to Fury, he doesnt mention it in the interview, so it seems to be a ridiculous attempt at generating interest in a poor interview from the journalist.

Did you write this dogsh1te?

WHat an appalling intro about the great white hope stuff whoever wrote it. as others have said has this writer doesn't seem no know who all the top heavies are at the mo.

I'm glad most others don't like the race angle. It's not a good idea.

The actual interview itself is nice. I would like Fury to have been asked about the opponent for his US debut. And if there is a plan mapped out and what is it?
