    Comments Thread For: Peter Fury on his past ordeals, Visa issues and Twitter

    Peter Fury’s past caught up with him in April when he attempted to cross the U.S. border for Tyson Fury’s fight with Steve Cunningham. The trainer’s application for a Visa was knocked back by the authorities due to two previous prison terms — for possession and conspiracy to supply amphetamine and a later charge of drug-related money laundering — and it meant that he could not work his nephew’s corner at Madison Square Garden’s Theatre venue. Fury was left kicking his heels in Canada, where he watched Tyson get dropped in the second before rallying to stop Cunningham in round seven.

    Fury is working on his Visa problem, he believes that he has shown that you can turn your life around and this will sway the U.S. authorities. In recent years the 45-year-old has gone from street fighter, trafficker and Category A prisoner to trainer, mentor and voice of calm in Tyson’s corner. [Click Here To Read More]

    Top bloke. He genuinely deserves an MBE the way he's turned his life around. One of the best trainers around; understands boxing, conditioning, the psychological side. Clever guy, but with a past. Hopefully he gets his visa issues sorted cause if not, it shows that the justice system is just to punish and not rehabilitate.
