    Fury and Canelo didn’t get “Complete pass” from it, it’s brought up every time with both boxers, even in this thread by the OP, Canelo on most P4P list isn’t number 1 because of that too....
    Fury served a 3 year ban.

    Complete pass doe.

      Do you think race is also a factor? Would a black boxer get away with what the both of them are getting away with without backlash?
      Fury calls himself the Gypsy King, although not as persecuted as Roma Gypsies, WASPs really hate Irish Travelers. The establishment don't like Fury, he's attacked ****sexuals and even some antisemitism, these two groups have a lot of power in the mass media. The establishment actually loves Joshua, a black man.

        Tyson Fury is a character, and a bit like Ricky Hatton's fans 'People see themselves in Fury, they projection onto him'.

        The average Joe who boozes excessively, and enjoys a take away 'Can relate to Tyson Fury'.

        Ultimately I believe that is apart of his appeal 'Certain people feel a deepened connection with him'.

        But I will say this? A lot of his fans will switch up real quick if he ever loses.

            Like that doesn't happen with everyone?

            Wilder was regarded as a killer before Fury dethroned him, and now he's suddenly a complete and utter bum.

              Large majority of Fury's fans are project themselves onto him.

              They will switch up on real quick.

              Joshua's fans do not project onto him, he is separate from them 'His connection with them is not really as deep, but they are fans nevertheless'.

              Denium right now as a Fury fan, you are dealing with a few things 'You do know he is spooked of late, but are kind of choosing to ignore it'.

                Stop pretending that you have some kind of special insight into boxing, you just talk utter rubbish.

                  I told you a long time ago? That Tyson Fury has never been favourite at elite level against another elite level fighter, he has never experienced fighting under those conditions.

                  The only time he was in that position was against Kiltschko II.

                  I suggested that there was a possibility that the closer the Joshua fights comes, the more Fury will be spooked.

                  You are spooked yourself Denium, just be honest mate.

                  It does not mean Fury will lose, he is still the favourite for me.

                    Fury is vastly overrated. He got booed in the Wlad win as neither hardly threw a punch - he drew with Wilder who is a hype job and then he got major props for beating a hype job from people like you. Outside of that he.has never made a defense and his record is full of Sefer Seferi types. He is afraid of AJ that is obvious to anyone with an ounce of sense and if he does take the fight he will get absolutely leathered and stop inside 5 rounds. He's a fraud.

                      Exactly... People still bring it up even now. Not sure how anyone can bypass that and claimed he got a complete pass, he didn’t fight for almost 3 years.
