My fellow Brits, why does Fury "get a pass" on being a drug cheat?

AJ could be a poster boy for steroids

I think its outrageous the way the UKAD dealt with Fury.

A backdated ban because of Fury's ability to bankrupt them sets a dangerous precedent and really says 'Rich sportsmen are above the law'.

I despise Fury's antics out of the ring and his taunting in the ring. He will never be a true Champion in my eyes.

Yeah Fury and his team were very clever in the way they held the UKAD to ransom. For me he would never get a pass, he basically use mental health illness to cover his PED use. I still like him as a boxer but if this was another HW boxer then his use of PED would be brought up every single day.

Of course he can, he was #1 before Fury returned. A drug cheat coming back off a ban doesn't change that. Fury needs to work to get back where he was, it's not handed to him.

He's #1 again now after defeating Deontay Wilder.

Completely agree with this post.

The core group of people around him are rotten to the core. From his drug dealing, ex-con father and uncles, to his PED popping cousin hughie and that piece of sh i t head cheerleader bj saunders. I dont believe for a second that he shifted all that weight without PEDs. And its a certainty he will be busted again. And its only then he will be properly held to account for his cheating.

How does beating the #2 leapfrog the #1?

He doesn't get a pass from me. I believe in a zero tolerance approach from the governing bodies but unfortunately all they think about is money. Lifetime bans is the only way to go in my opinion. I like Fury so as long as he has a licence to box, I'll watch him.

Fury has an image of an everyday normal guy, a casual if you will. He messes up here and there. It is easier to forgive him.
Joshua is a complete opposite of that. A clean-cut elite athlete with a squeaky clean persona. If he gets popped for PEDs, it's gonna be a ****storm. But he will also have money, power, lawyers and promoters to defend him, like Canelo.

Because he looks like a stack of mashed potatoes.
If AJ got busted you'd NEVER hear the end of it.
