Tyson Fury's sons' names

[lynsey91]

I have vaguely heard of Tyson Fury but today I read an article about him in The Mail (I know!). He has 5 children and 3 are boys all named Prince!

I mean how can they all have the same name? I assume they have nicknames at home but even so what is the point of naming them all the same. It's just totally weird and really seems rather stupid

Cannot believe the apologists on this thread.
So sick of this BeKind BS. Shove it up you.

The man said he would kill his own sister. Ah it’s ok it’s just words innit? Just a persona. Just a product of his upbringing.

That’s like saying it’s ok to be a child abuser because you were abused as a child. It’s not is it?

Why on earth should I BeKind to someone I find morally repugnant?

Just because he’s famous doesn’t mean I have to lick his shoes and have no opinion on his behaviour.

No one is above being reproached for their awful words and behaviour.

"The man said he would kill his own sister"

He wouldn't actually kill her 😂 ffs

Because that never happens crusty?

Maybe he wouldn’t - but the fact he as a role model said it means for someone out there it’s validated. Honor crimes aren’t a real problem.

I’d happily accept it was said when he was mentally unwell if he came out and distanced himself from his comments when he was stable but he’s not had he?

And that’s from someone who has watched him since his fights were on channel 5.

Oops ARE a real problem

All this playing up to traveller stereotypes is distasteful. The community is worth more than a pantomime misrepresentation of a Neanderthal thug who would kill his sister and thinks abortion and homosexuality are forerunners of an apocalypse.

Oh yes men have never murdered their family members, have they @crustycrab. What makes you so sure he doesn't mean it? Even if you could conclusively prove he was joking, who jokes about that?

In the context of his other comments about women, gay people and Jews, I'm inclined to think he's a vile man. But because he's on telly and he's good at punching people in the head (I mean come ON) you're prepared to sell those people down the river and think he's great? How stupid can you get.

Have we now reached a stage where we shouldn’t gossip about celebs in case they’re fragile, perhaps they’re in the wrong job.

I bloody hate the fact that it's apparently ok to take traveller girls out of education at 11. It's not. It's backward and wrong and if it was any other culture in this country doing it there would be uproar.

I've lost count of the lovely, bright, academic girls i've taught who had the misfortune to be travellers. With a few notable exceptions, all of them doomed to a life of cleaning, doing nails and having kids. Whilst some of them were under the illusion that this was their choice some were desperate to continue learning.

I read somewhere that he said and I quote "I called them all Prince as none of them are Kings yet"

@phlebasconsidered get a grip

I don't think it is particularily helpful to major on girls being taken out of education at 11 while that is not good, but it can sort of imply that is fine to remove boys from education when it is not good either both boys and girls need to stay in education for similar reasons

Why was that post edited @mnhq?

@phlebasconsidered as a gypsy I find your post ridiculously offensive. Why don't you learn about a culture before just ranting about it.

And by the way boys usually leave even earlier than girls.

Phleb

"doomed to a life of cleaning, doing nails and having kids"

Really? "Doomed"  ffs.

And as for you @CommunistLegoBloc it's got nothing to do with him being on TV, I'm not basing my opinions on that at all. They haven't always been on tv you know

Pinky ignore Phleb. "Backward" gave them away, ignorant and narrow minded

Dr. Seuss:
Did I ever tell you that Mrs. McCave
Had twenty-three sons, and she named them all Dave?
Well, she did. And that wasn't a smart thing to do.
You see, when she wants one, and calls out "Yoo-Hoo!
Come into the house, Dave!" she doesn't get one.
All twenty-three Daves of hers come on the run!
This makes things quite difficult at the McCaves'
As you can imagine, with so many Daves.
And often she wishes that, when they were born,
She had named one of them Bodkin Van Horn.
And one of them Hoos-Foos. And one of them Snimm.
And one of them Hot-Shot. And one Sunny Jim.
Another one Putt-Putt. Another one Moon Face.
Another one Marvin O'Gravel Balloon Face.
And one of them Zanzibar Buck-Buck McFate...
But she didn't do it. And now it's too late.

Hero worship 😂🤷🏽‍♀️😂 he certainly would disagree that I do that. Maybe cancel your Daily Mail subscription and stop believing everything you read. Cause it's bollocks

I know Tyson personally. Ever since we was kids he's acted exactly the way you see on the documentary. He's very authentic, what you see is what you get. Think his choice of names are far better than some I see on here....

Oh btw I'm a traveller, and guess what! I'm educated to university standard. Had a good career (had) because I chose to stay at home and be a "home maker" and I married a gorja

My own choice.

Prince Tyson Fury II, Prince Adonis Amaziah and Prince John James is their full names, so easily distinguishable really.

And basically means OP’s thread is pointless.

He is a very stupid man.

@crustycrab the fact you think that my objecting to a sexist homophobic anti-Semite means I read the Daily Mail shows how little thought you've put into this.

people on the receiving end of racism

I've seen countless tweets over the years describing TF as a 'thieving gyppo', 'inbred' and rather curiously 'Tyson Fury is a racist pikey'.

I used to think he was King Tosser but have interviews with him where he's held his hands up and admitted being an arsehole. That must have took a lot from a man like him so I feel he deserves a second chance. Let's hope he stays on track.
