    You have not proved he attended a far right rally. So that's it really.
    Predictable and very typical. You lot are always making excuses for the gypsy bum and it's never his fault because he's a perpetual victim despite always being the loudest in the room all the time.

    When would a man in his 30s start being held responsible for his actions, beliefs and what he says?

    Fury is a UKIP/EDL/BNP member. And he wants a British version of Trump to become the PM.

      Gypsy bum. Very witty.

      He was in his 20s.

      Mike Tyson has endorsed trump for president. Chisora photographed with Farage. I guess based in that flimsy evidence that they too must attend far right rallies as well? Because that's as much as you've got on fury.

      Anyway. You proved nothing.

        Regardless, I hope your last name isn't Ukranian because if it's, you and Froch are going back to Ukraine and Poland respectively when Farage becomes the PM, lol.
        The Soviets and the Germans were on the same side at the start of the war and the Ukranians invaded Poland along with the Germans, or some of them did. A lot of others deserted, like him, because they didn't want to fight on the ****s' side..

        He joined the British merchant navy and died when his ship was torpedoed by a German Uboat. His surname died with him, because he and my great, great grandma never married. They had a daughter together, but couldn't marry because she was already legally married to somebody else.

        After the war, she did get married again, and her English husband adopted her daughter and gave her his name.

          People don't like Fury beacause his fights are usually boring and he fights 3 bums for every good opponent he faces.

            He is anti gay....so he is insulting millions of Brits who are gay and millions of their supporters.

            He is anti-******** in a country where ******** is legal.

            He is anti-sex out of wedlock...said he would "hang" his sister if she was promiscuous.

            He very religious in a country that is increasingly either atheist or ******.

            He is out of touch with the views of a vast majority of the citizens of the UK and Europe in general.

              Don't be fooled by the mainstream media, Tyson Fury has a decent following in the UK.

                FFS man, that tweet is from 2016, 2 years before Tommy Robinson became a UKIP adviser and the whole party practically disintegrated before reforming and shifting a mile further to the right than they were back then!

                    Naseem was most popular in the mid-late 1990s. Hatton was most popular in mid-late 2000s. They ruled in different eras, so it's hard to compare.

                    Calzaghe wasn't really all that popular in the UK. He was a bit like Fury in that regard.

                      As for why Fury isn't popular in the UK, the biggest reason was leaked footage of his offensive Christian views about gays, ***s and ********. Which led to huge public backlash against him, with protests and petitions accusing him of being ****phobic, antisemitic and sexist. Which destroyed whatever chance he had of becoming a superstar in the UK.

                      It's a far cry from AJ. He was an Olympic gold medalist. And portrayed himself as a humble working class everyman that the British public could relate to, much like Ricky Hatton a decade ago. It also helps that AJ has the looks, which helps tap into the female demographic. Interestingly, Tyson Fury's good-looking younger brother Tommy Fury is also drawing a lot of female attention on Love Island.
