    I thought it was because they are 'fighting men' ?

    He's certainly a good fighter, definitely not my hero but I won't condemn him until the facts are laid out for all to see. Quite a measured response if I'm honest. I think he's good for boxing but if it turns out he took steroids to aid himself in a fight then I'd be perfectly happy to see him banned for life which Is what I think should happen to any boxers caught taking steroids.

    Mine was not a spelling mistake just a grammatical oversight,
    When saying others have reading comprehension problems it's as well to know what you are talking about.

    Fury tested positive for Nandrolone in either Feb,or March of last year , both he and Wlad had agreed voluntary testing under the auspices of VADA, his urine sample was positive,Dr Margaret Goodman,President of VADA informed him of the results. In Sep of this year he tested positive for cocaine .He has pulled out of a couple of tests and press conferences citing various excuses."my car broke down," etc. You keep digging that hole.

    You can't even form a coherent sentence let alone comprehend what I was getting at with my second post that quoted you.

    '' When saying others have reading comprehension problems it's as well to know what you're talking about ''


    If Tyson tested positive in either Feb or March surely he would have been banned on the spot? But no he is allowed to set another date for another world title fight. Why would the sanctioning bodies and the board of control allow him to continue fighting if he was a confirmed drug cheat? That dosent make any sense, a bit like your sentences.

    I thought he'd only relinquished the WBA and WBO belts.

    Anthony Joshua does the celebrity rounds as much as anyone.
    I get it, you dislike Tyson Fury.

    After Fury's injury it then emerged that UK-Anti Doping (UKAD) had charged the champion over a urine sample taken in February 2015, and his cousin Hughie with a doping offence.

    It was alleged the sample - taken nine months before Tyson Fury's defeat of Klitschko - contained traces of the banned substance nandrolone. Fury was informed of the positive result.

    There is nothing grammatically wrong with my statement.You come off as a know - all who knows jack sh*t and I'm obviously not the first to spot that, several others have mentioned it on this thread .Carry on talking sh*t no one else is listening.

    I don't dislike him per se, I think he has very big bollocks ,unfortunately he has a very small brain to go with them.I dislike him and his camp pulling the old stroke about being a minority race and blaming every one else for his self -made problems.

    Fair enough. I agree his problems are mostly self-made (as far as I can tell anyway).
    On the other hand, the casual racism dished out towards him should be unacceptable in today's society. It's not completely surprising if they feel persecuted.

    Are the casual racism and sexism remarks he has made concerning gays ,women, and immigrants acceptable?

    That maybe the case but it still makes no sense, sorry if I hurt your feelings pointing that out.

    Pea man stick bump leather join day tomorrow year anniversary join man dog cat frog horse meow.

    Nothing grammatically wrong with that statement either but It dosent make any sense what's so ever. I guess you can decipher it though. For someone who dosent give f*uck about Tyson or this story you certainly have a lot to say on the matter.

    No, I just responded to a mouthy, rude poster who thinks everyone else is dumb and he was the only one in the queue when the brains were dished out. You didn't hurt my feelings, you're not important enough to me for that to happen.
    No need to continue this further.

    NO, racism and sexism is not acceptable.
    The remarks about women were poor humour and indefensible really. He should know better.
    The remarks about gays were taken out of context. Again he should know better
    I don't know what he said about immigrants ...... ?

    The point is, two wrongs don't make a right. Racist abuse is wrong. It doesn't make a difference if the target of the abuse might have been guilty of instances of bigotry himself.
