I wish I could like him, I really do, he's a fantastic boxer but he just let's himself down terribly. There was a big crowd that were there for him but it wasn't 94k, banks of empty seats. There isn't enough of a buzz around Fury for him to be considered boxings biggest star, the PR work with him has been tremendous but it's still not enough for me. He's a great boxer and for one reason or another a popular figure but he's an idiot.
Quite possible But casual fans i do at this point feel are switching to Fury Its all guess work really
He rubs shoulders with professional wrestlers, film stars, musicians and fellow athletes. Silvester Stallone wants him to star in one of his films, he has offers from the WWE. Tyson Fury is a star.
You don't need to like him for who he is; just enjoy him as a superstar heavyweight boxer. Joe Calzaghe's a scumbag tosser but it doesn't seem to put you off him. There are many ways to be an idiot but it doesn't seem like it's the fact that he's an idiot that puts you off him, it's something more specific. For me Fury is a hypocrite to a sickening degree (and in several ways), and a fake persona. Usyk is the most likeable guy out of the lot.
He does have all the TUE hanging over him though tbf. Remember he packed on about 5 stone of muscle when turning pro too
I don't think there is any question on this. HW boxing is the flagship division of the sport, and Fury is the Man. End of story.
I'm jesting with 5st. But he did put on a ridiculous amount of muscle, and he looks like a juicer. Musclebound to **** and rocking a beauty of HGH gut, he looks like he's swallowed a beach ball.
Who gives a ****? Only a total noob would hold drugs against a pro athlete. All pro athletes are on the sos. Don't be a dick.
I don't think what Calzaghe has done can top the consistent levels of idiocy that Tyson Fury has reached. I've mentioned on here before that I like the boxer and think he's brilliant but everything else, the PR stunts, the hypocrisy, it just really grates and I'm surprised how easily people buy it. Look who he's involved with too, an absolute scumbag who has gone into hiding. To be a superstar you have to be more than just the man in the ring, he can talk but it's lying that has elevated status "oh he's such a good guy", he's the kind of person that won't do a good deed unless a camera is there. I'm just sick of fake wholesomeness full stop and Tyson Fury is the World Champion of it right now.
