    totally different, comedians u are expected to laugh at, boxers u aint.

    he comes up better lines than most comedians, and if he isnt coming up with fresh new comebacks, he repeats the same **** which is quite funny as you think hes definitely mad then, no one can utter the same nonsense over and over again, also one of the funniest things ive heard him say was to naseem richardson along the lines off, ' i dont know if u watch or know boxing but im a boxing historian and look my record every fight of mine has been on national television' and theres a few other gems 'theres not a man born from his mother, who can beat tyson fury' that sounds a typical gypsy line. i could beat 10david hayes on the same night, steve cunningham and the whole philadelphia and every man in it couldnt beat me never mind you steve. hes a hilarious.

    He is definetly sharper and wittier than Haye.

    Fury can freestyle jokes while Haye needs to rehearse

    No, but his personality has helped him enormously in getting fights, and works well with his in-ring behavior. If he ever won the championship, he'd be unbearably obnoxious. And people would watch to see him get clobbered, just like they did with Ali.

    Tyson Fury is not trying to be funny he means business. And he is pissed off. How many gypsies do you know? That is our natural temperament being ill tempered, and talking trash

    considering his background its not suprising when he tries to talk he comes acroos as funny or weird to some people(think of eddie murphy in trading places), as time goes on fury will get used to it just like eddie did

    Tyson Fury is pathetic. He's extremely vulgar and not in a good or amusing way.
    See Mike Tyson was always vulgar but it's actually interesting and entertaining to hear him speak. Tyson Fury on the otherhand has not earned the right to talk the **** he does and the stuff he says is just....... really low and pathetic. I don't know how else to put it. Go check his most recent twitter rant, it was so fking pathetic that I thought it was a prank at first. But no it was him.

    I also heard an x-rated interview in Fury's house where he's talking about licking a woman's pssy and a$$ and ****........ and the way he says it isn't funny, it was just sick.

    Hope David Haye decapitates him.

    I guess those who find him funny, are laughing at him rather than with him. He's like the village idiot of the heavyweight scene. He says something offensive or just plain weird or starts singing badly for no apparent reason and the rest of the village points and laughs.

    Personally my sense of humour finds that uncomfortable. I don't like gaining amusement from the less fortunate or the mentally challenged.

    This. Fury's irritating voice and lack of brain power do not make for a good combination. He is a terrible ambassador for the sport.

    Also, can't stand how he blows and rubs his nose constantly on his gloves during everyone of his fights before rubbing the resultant snot into his opponents face. He's just a disgusting, balding oaf.

    There is no way that interview isn't the most creepy thing ever recorded.

    Yes his voice is soooo irritating. His accent is just plain weird, it doesn't matter what he is saying it always sounds wrong, like finger nails being dragged along a chalk board.

    Hadn't noticed that disgusting habit of his. That's just gross. :barf
