Comments Thread For: Tyson Fury: Every Yankee Combined Couldn't Beat Me

[Jedi Vader]

It's not a race. It's an ethnicity.

Irish travelers are an ethnic group with Irish origin.

Travellers are originally Indian.

[Weltschmerz]

And I am originally African... you know, way back.

win or lose i like fury

he seems like a civil guy outside the ring & away from the media but the minute the camera is on or microphone is in his face he turns it on to overdrive. he is exactly what the HW division needs. from the time he danced to the ring to lame music, to hitting himself in the face, to calling out the klitschko's after his first couple of fights, i've been amused by this guy. he has improved & still has that vulnerability to him that makes him exciting to watch. one of my favorites but i want to see him face a big puncher. he has yet to do that. he has been brought along properly. he will soon be fighting the best in the world if he beats cunningham. we will see what he has. get him in there with thompson next if he gets past cunningham...

I hope he never loses.

It's nice to have a heavyweight who can talk. Seemed like he dealt with the responses very well.

I do agree with Tyson though, I can't see a 200 pound beating him either. This could be a demolition job.

Fury seems to be the "real deal". He can talk ****e with the best of them and he can punch. He has really good boxing skills too. Let's just hope that he doesn't have an "English Chin." He should get through a tough veteran like USS and then ....

Like I said on a earlier thread the build up will be better than the fight

Fury isn't ******.Hype sells fights and generates TV ratings. Fury is very good at garnering both.

Fury is quite smart. And he's got some wit to him, unlike someone like David Haye, who's just a loudmouth twat.

Yes, the 90% KO ratio came from his loud mouth.

I am in no way a Hyae fan and I really cannot believe I am going to defend him. So with that said Haye's resume simply blows Fury's out of the water.

Here we go with the lovin..



Ehm, Fury is a descendant of Irish travelers, also called Gypsies. It is indeed a race. He is not "Irish".

Irish Travellers are a Celtic people.

They are often called "gypsies" because of the similar lifestyle, but they are actually of Irish (Celtic) origin.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Irish_Travellers

Irish Travellers (Irish: an lucht siúil) or Pavee, also called Gypsies (but not to be confused with the Romani people), are a traditionally nomadic people of ethnic Irish origin, who maintain a set of traditions and a distinct ethnic identity.
