    He's English you knob heads.

    Anyone who's even remotely successful, their grandad enjoyed the odd pint of Guinness and it's enough for the irish to try and claim them

    If Fury wants to be Irish and they want him it's down to him not us.

    Look at Mo Farah, if he wants to be British it's down to him not us. Right?

    British or Irish he'll still get my support. He can be a bit silly at times, but he's a young lad. I watched the post-fight press conference (Rogan fight) the other day, Rogan insisted Fury is a good lad, but stating that Hennessy is ruining Fury. Then Rogan was arguing with Hennessy about Irish title fights being 10 rounds not 12. Was quite heated, pretty funny.

    If a racist is born in a stable, does that make any difference?

    Exactly mate its shameless marketing.

    Many english people me included can look to 1/4 or 1/8 Irish ancestry to wear the flag and sell tickets.
