    "Gypsy" is a racist term. "Gypsies" are an ethnic group.
    Depending on context. I think Chisora is being stereotypical anyway, so it really is no better than racism really. Lets not turn this thread into some English language debate lol

      I remember in a documentary that Hitler tried to wipe out the ***s, Gypsies and mentally disabled. I would put Fury in the mentally disabled group.

              Is it racist to single out ***s and hit them up with stereotypes?

                  lol @ people trying to defend this racist statement from Chisora. Like the poster above says, if he'd said it about ***s or ****s, he'd be in serious trouble.

                    I don't think anyone is defending it, they just don't think it's racism.

                    If Tyson Fury or his trainer Peter Fury didn't tell you they were gypsy's, you would never know. It's like, if I was Mormon or Jehovah's witness but I never told anyone, I would never get criticism. To me someone's race is visual, and that's where the immediate discrimination comes in.

                    I don't consider the gypsys in the UK a race of people, they're white people living in a certain way. If you look above there is a Romanian poster who knows all about gypsys saying Irish Travellers are not even genuine Roma people.

                    Chisora shouldn't have said what he said, but I think racism is something apart from that.
