    “When I knock out Rogan and get that Irish title around my waist it will be like me winning the gold medal at the Olympics. To win the title in the year of London 2012 will be very special,” commented Fury.

    “I always knew I was Irish and now everybody knows that those who prevented me from boxing for Ireland at the Olympics in Beijing denied Ireland an Olympic heavyweight gold medalist.

    “It hurt me deeply not being able to fight for Ireland at the Olympics and to win this Irish title will be just fantastic. I don’t care about Wladimir or Vitali Klitschko, those guys can wait because winning the Irish heavyweight championship in Belfast means everything to me.

    :patsch

    Will he suddenly remember his Boer heritage and vacate when he has to defend against Perez?

    Fury beats a bum and then Perez wants the fight he vacates just like he did the british and commonwealth when he should of fought Price...

    FURY is a BUM

    Given that Fury has already effectively said that fighting Rogan for the Irish title means more in terms of progressing towards a world title fight than defending the British and Commonwealth titles against Price, I think we can assume that anything he says to the media is simply intended to hype his next fight and does not actually mean anything in the context of his career. He's got to say something to sell this fight - talking about the opponent certainly won't do it.

    Hope he doesn't get as far as Klits, supposed hard man gypsey and decline's a fight with someone he was talking **** about not so long ago. Price vs Fury is a big fight, and the winner is potentially only a few fights away with a shot at the title.
    Biggest idiot in British heavyweight boxing and that is saying something!
