    I didn't realise they were forced into the ring at gun point. My mistake.

    And yeah, I'm sure they do it for our satisfaction and definitely not for the money.

    Neither an apologist or part of the camp.
    Just a realist.
    10 months ago he beat Klitschko, now he's a "f--k up", but who's to say where he'll be 10 months from now? He obviously has swings in mood, and that can go both ways.
    He's heavyweight champion of the world, and he will be for some time in the eyes of many of his peers. Certainly I believe Wladimir Klitschko will be hoping Fury gets back on track, as will AJ, Wilder etc., because they covet his "lineal" title even if he gets stripped of the belts.

    You probably want his crisis to escalate and for him to end up ruined - which I've said could well happen.
    We'll see what happens.

    Who cares what he did? It's null and void as he was a drugs cheat.

    Okay, so it's null and void. His whole career.
    David Price is undefeated. Vitali Klitschko and James Toney never existed.

    Any wins that took place whilst under the influence of PED's should be wiped from the records.

    That's a point of view.

    Yeah, I've never been bothered much by PED use. I tend to think most top athletes have used.
    Evander Holyfield was probably on steroids etc., and I'm a huge admirer of his career and efforts in the ring.
    I seriously doubt Wladimir Klitschko has stayed clean his entire career, let's be realistic.

    Evander Holyfield wasn't... but Evan Fields was!

    I wanted him to dethrone Wlad, I just couldn't see it. I then thought he was really going to shake up the division and be involved in some great fights. Wilder, AJ, Parker, Povetkin, Haye etc. There were some really exciting clashes on the horizon.

    Then he decided to be a ***** and **** it all away under the influence of his moron family. He talks a big game but can't come anywhere near backing it up.

    Now he's left boxing's marquee division in total disarray with boxing once again the laughing stock of world sport. Well done Tyson you absolute bellend.

    Oh and **** his BS religious man of God spiel. That liar can shove that crap too.

    Yeah, but at the end of the day, at the moment he's still got the best credentials in the division, even with his inactivity.
    Many of your criticisms of Fury and his family are valid but you can't blame them for the whole division being sh!t.

    It's interesting that you're willing to include David Haye among the division's future or as a potential player still, while you've written Tyson Fury off already.

    I've not written Tyson off. I've criticised him for being a) a hypocrite b) a liar c) a drugs cheat d) a recreational drug user e) inactive f) bigoted on a number of issues g) lazy h) not respecting the sport

    That's a lot of things to criticise a man for but he's guilty of all of them. Some of those also apply to Haye who I'd like to see earn a place amongst the top names if he still can. He has the potential to be in exciting fights IMO same way Tyson does.
