    crazy stuff, but you still havent told me why this song is the same as singing about the Real IRA, Provos, Al Queda, Boston Bombers which its clear as day it isnt, its about Ireland winning independance.

    Just admit that you hate Furys whole Irish thing

    He didn't, but it's a means of, perhaps cynically, boosting / abetting his exposure in the US market. They love a bit of 'Irish' in the States.

    Chief Superintendent Andy Bates, divisional commander for Glasgow South and East Renfrewshire: "If you sing Boys of the Old Brigade, we’ll arrest you… If you sing anything derisory about the Pope or the Queen, we’ll consider that an arrestable offence.”

    I await an apology.....

    If he wanted to sing about the republic being formed he could have sung loads of other songs that didn't refer to the IRA. The IRA are deemed as a terrorist organisation by our government and by the American government- so are al-Quedia. The both try to use violence to achieve their aims. People who sing that song sing it in support of the modern day IRA- hence the reason you are arrested for supporting a proscribed organisation if you sing it publicly.

    That's irrelevant - it's the American market he wants.

    **** you are stupid.

    So you are calling the 1916 easter rising an act of terrorism?

    It's not about the provos, it's about the IRA, from the war of independence. It has **** all to do with the P.I.R.A. you ignorant twat.

    He chose it to appeal to the plastic paddys, no one but thick ignorant brits took offense.

    Building slowly I think. I would say he's doubled his paying fanbase here since the Firtha fight. Has been on The late late show at least once which is basically an Irish version of Johnathon Ross. Probably still needs another big fight to really become a big name in ireland though. Pulev for the European title could be that fight.

    Don't think anyone took 'offence', merely most found it cynical, which is was, but that isn't necessarily a slight.

    Oh, and 1916 Rising was an act of terrorism :roll: geez, even Irish historians recognise that.

    I used to think Price would KO Fury but after Price was KO'D from a slap I changed my mind but after watching Fury be dropped and wobbled from a Cruiser Weight who isn't exactly known for being powerful I am back to being unsure, If Price hits Fury he puts him to sleep but it could go the other way as well however I have no doubt in my mind that Haye would KO Fury inside 6 rounds

    He wasn't really wobbled, was he? His legs looked fine, though from his facial expression, he looked disconcerted.
