    "Jesus Fury," the fighter says wistfully. "I like that name. A lot of Mexicans are called Jesus."

    :rofl

    Almost all successful athlete's are prone to depression. The attributes ethically that make you a great athlete, is what sometimes makes you a loser in life. I beleave all successful athlete's or maybe just dedicated athlete's, go through serious bouts of depression.

    The interview also confirms that there are at least two people on the planet with sillier names than Tyson Fury.

    Stand up Comedians are also notorious manic depressives, it seems being a showman either mentally or physically in front of an expectant audience takes its toll.

    I can have no sympathy with a man who names his child 'Venezuela'

    Sad stuff. I remember seeing an interview in which his dad said he was premature and they said he was going to die. Sounds like he had a rough time in life.

    Wonder if there isn't someway he could give real Tyson a call and get some advice. I'll bet Mike could offer some help on how to deal with it all.

    Manic depression and depression are two completely different things.

    Exactly manic depression only affects pop groups.
