Tony Bellew claims he was hacked

Spot on. It was just a few opinions, he wrote that soldiers need the most help for mental illnesses and not reality stars who have just come from a holiday - fair enough, some people might agree and some might not.

The cover up is just embarrassing because it was so obviously him, people know how he writes and the sort of opinions he has. He’s definitely not the brightest.

 

He is possibly the most hypocritical figure in boxing. He's one of those people that talks a good game but ends up completely contradicting everything he says.

 

Am not really arsed more important things going on than that, am going with he was hacked though just to be a *******.

 

It isn't initially. Like I say though, once you start getting a mother of a dead child on news at 1 crying that its attitudes like Bellew's that put her children in an early grave and if someone had 'snitched' on that lorry drive maybe little Sally wouldn't have to spend the rest of her life in a wheelchair and then they cut to a photo of Johnny and Johnny never made it home safely to his wife and kids because someone texting ran him over and here's Johnny's crying wife and does she have something she'd like to tell Tony...

etc.

etc.

etc.

then all of a sudden the 'Tony Bellew' brand starts to take a hammering. Coincidentally the time it took to discover the hacking matches up to the time it would take some of the smarter people around Tony to read what he'd said, think through the obvious implications and cobble together a 'hacked account' defence.

 

Been telling everyone for years that Bellew is a liar cuuuut the man should just fuccck off

 

I don't believe a single one of these 'hacked' excuses. They're absolutely pathetic. Joshua, Fury, Bellew. All talking garbage.

 

What if it was the same hacker, the conspiracy theories have started!

 

And clearly that's the statement his PR or management are putting out

 

He was posting loads of his usual rubbish that day/night, the usual using social media to slate social media and putting random words in capitals to enthesise his wisdom. Probably woke up hungover the day after full of shame and regret

 

Righto, I mean he clearly wasn't and you obviously know that - but suit yourself.

 

Wow I actually agree with you - you're right. Embarrassing and often quite revealing. The Joshua and this Bellew incident have changed my opinion on them for the worse. Before you start - I wasn't a twitter user during the Fury incident so genuinely haven't seen it.

 

Tweet from Tyson - 'don't like gays they should be shot.'

Quickly deleted. Blamed his cousin/hacking. As pathetic as his boar meat excuse.

 

I believe in freedom of speech and respect Fury and others right to air their personal views on any subject, however, I cringe when they fail to stand by any comments when criticism follows.

I personally cannot understand why one prefers the brown to the pink but nobody should be shot for getting the pecker brown.

 

I know the full context of the Joshua/Bellew incidents but taking that at face value - if that's verbatim - then obviously that's awful. I think Tyson, pre-comeback, was incredibly unstable and not in a good place for quite a long time. Not that it's an excuse though. Luckily I think he's grown up a lot over the last few years and seems to have a better team around him that won't let him go rogue.

 

The point was that he came out with so much anti-gay stuff so often that it fit completely with the expected stuff you'd expect him to say. It's obviously a bit worse but when you're a guy who feels comfortably comparing gay people to child abusers it's not a huge jump to say you think they should be killed.

Personally I think Fury has spouted so much hatred about gay people over the years that I don't think he's in any sort of 'new place' now. I reckon he still hates them; it's more that his brand is now the mental health comeback kid and being some raging homophobe isn't good for business so he just keeps it zipped.
