    Article from the scene but its all over the media. Saw it in the Sunday papers.

    "WBO mandatory challenger Tyson Fury threatened to report police officers ‘for jealousy’ when he was stopped trying to dodge queuing traffic on the M6 by driving up the hard shoulder.

    The British champion told officers: “I’m a boxer, I’m a superstar, I’m a celebrity!” when he was stopped at the wheel of his Mitsubishi Shogun on the outskirts of Preston on April 18th of last year.

    Fury was not present at Preston Magistrates Court for his trial, claiming to be suffering from a bout of diarrhea.

    However prosecutor Philippa Jones said she was skeptical about his explanation as an application to adjourn the case due to Fury’s training commitments was refused earlier this week.

    The trial proceeded in his absence and Fury was convicted of driving without due care and attention and driving without insurance.

    He has been fined £1,000 and ordered to pay £300 costs and a £60 surcharge.

    His license was endorsed with eight penalty points bringing the total number of points he has to 11 - just one short of the limit before being banned.

    Fury is currently preparing to face Christian Hammer at the O2 Arena on February 28."


    As you can see Tyson does not come over very well here and very self entitled. I dont have a problem with attitude over fights and opponants but it looks like Tyson believes he is some sort of big shot.
    Had his 3 kids with him as well. Wanted the coppers numbers because they were jealous.:rofl

    He had a Passat but it got torched- he apparently loved that car.

    Not that there is anything wrong with Passats.

    Driving without insurance is just plain wrong- it's not like he's fighting for peanuts anymore. Allegedly.
