That Tyson Fury is a Dickhead

He is a good boxer, granted.He should so be removed from the shortlist of sports personality of the year and put up for Dickhead of the year! According to him Jessica Ennis-Hill "slaps up good" and his personal beliefs are that " A women's best place is in the kitchen and on her back". Even if he thinks it's just harmless banter and a part of his show man personality, he is still a dickhead for saying these things out aloud!

he should say what he thinks rather than a speech written by his PR team

atleast we know now what a brainless idiot he is rather than later on

patterkiller · 06/12/2015 21:19

On the back of this thread wouldn't it be good to see a thread started on a positive note on who should be SPOTY rather that who shouldn't.

SauvignonBlanche · 06/12/2015 21:21

'pikey'? How ironic Hmm

BonnieF · 06/12/2015 21:29

Sauvignon,

Well spotted. Gold star!

SisterNancySinatra · 06/12/2015 21:31

That didn't take long then . How predictable.

FrancesNiadova · 06/12/2015 21:33

Op, YANBU.

Footle · 06/12/2015 21:37

Reported, as the irony was too subtle for me to grasp.

SauvignonBlanche · 06/12/2015 21:41

I'll pass on the Star, thanks. Hmm

LuluJakey1 · 06/12/2015 21:43

Liney Yes he does deny he said it and he and his thuggy henchmen have been bullying, lying about and threatening the sports reporter who interviewed him. Tyson is a shit of the first degree imho.

GloriaSmellens · 06/12/2015 21:52

I thought it was fairly obvious that Bonnie was making a point about it not being OK to make horrible bigoted statements about minority groups?!

Leafitout · 06/12/2015 22:06

Yes he is not very forthcoming in issuing any form of apology! As he has said they are his personal beliefs so in his mind why would he apologise for his beliefs! Such a douche bag

Can I just point out he is not even that good s boxer. He got his shot by being huge (fat a lot of the time) beating smaller not very good opponents and took a tiny purse to fight klitchko (in boxing terms). The fight was awful although the British media have fawned over him. Klitchko just could not figure out how to get in to him and fury genuinely looked like he wa on something for most of it.

If he beats klitchko in the rematch then beats Anthony Joshua he has a legitimate right to some sort of SPORTING recommendation but he won't because he's not good enough

And yeah bit of a dick sadly

seasidesally · 06/12/2015 22:37

how much was the purse ?? RJnomore1

Footle · 06/12/2015 22:45

Too clever by half, GloriaSmellens.

Heatherplant · 06/12/2015 22:48

I'm really glad he came out with all those remarks, that way we all know exactly what he's like and hopefully people won't be voting for him. I hope Jessica Ennis-Hill wins and I hope to watch Tyson spit his dummy out over it.

MyFavouriteClintonisGeorge · 06/12/2015 23:00

Bad enough that Tyson Fury is a weird 'APOCALYSE IS COMING' hater, but he hasn't even got the courage of his convictions. When all the controversy started he could just have stood by his interview remarks and said that was what he believed. He might have retained a smidgeon of respect. Instead he dishonestly denied saying any of it and claimed the journalist made it all up. So he is a dishonest homophobic coward. I'd like to bring Sonny Liston back to life to kick his arse.

RJnomore1 · 06/12/2015 23:06

Please remember this is relative - I believe he got £2.4 million - klitchko got £15 million.

Leafitout · 06/12/2015 23:07

Wouldn't that just boil his piss if Jessica Ennis-Hill won. Grin

So he denies saying a load of stuff he (a) admits that he believes in, and (b) was taped saying, by the journalist he said it to.

Macsmurray · 06/12/2015 23:27

He's a boxer, his personal opinions aren't worth shit, unless 'punch drunk' is a new intellectual
