    Tyson Fury apologizes, retracts statements made towards the WBC

    Undefeated heavyweight sensation Tyson Fury has apologized to the WBC for any offense they may have taken regarding his recent comments.

    “I would like to apologize to the WBC for the comments I made and any implications that resulted from them,” Tyson said. “Through no fault of my own I have been unable to fight since April with fights in September and February being cancelled. The entire situation and inactivity has left me extremely frustrated. The WBC title has meant a lot to me since I was a kid and I always wanted to fight for that green WBC belt and put my name with the greats like Ali, Leonard, Mike Tyson and Lennox Lewis who have held it. That passion to hold that belt and the frustration of being forced to be inactive for so long sometimes leads me to say things that I shouldn’t and I would like to take this opportunity to retract those comments I made. I do not believe that the WBC or any of its members acted improperly in the heavyweight division, but having fought a WBC eliminator (which I know and understand was not a final eliminator), and with the title being vacated, I genuinely believe I am the best heavyweight and deserving of a shot.

    He retired. Took himself out of the running.

    His supporters say, "Oh no, he was joking." But when it happened he was asked if he was joking and he said he was not.

    The joke is on Tyson Funny. His mouth has gotten him in trouble and now he's like a little child apologizing to his mommy.

    As usual, his mouth has got him in trouble. Maybe he shouldnt have gone on twitter and offically retire? Maybe he shouldnt have told the WBC '**** you'

    Dont bit the hand that feeds you. Tail between legs now

    tail between the legs as if Fury believes a word of this so called statement he only said it so the WBC would get of his back.

    frankly he should have told the WBC to go **** themslves they are an awful sactioning body.

    Fury still fancies the WBC route clearly.

    I remember he said that he wouldn't take it back in that interview/rant.
    But he probably wants a shot at the easy belt soon anyway.
