    Well, I think the US loves him and will always welcome him over whether it is to train or live here.

      I don’t think Fury is a liar or a flip flopper. He is a guy who speaks his mind and he talks a lot so you hear the jokes mixed in with the passing thoughts, half digested ideas, firm beliefs etc.

        I've been to London and Leeds many times for work. You be surprised at just how enjoyable a nice cup of tea and good conversation is.

        The beer and pub scene is great, don't get me wrong, but tea time ain't something to give them a hard time over I don't reckon.

        Then again I'm southern so to me it ain't far off sitting on a porch with sweet tea.

          This is the guy that said:

          Parker Will KO, he'll AJ bet anyone £1,000
          He Will fight Whyte for Diamond belt
          He will KO Wlad
          He will meet Wilder in the ring for KO
          Donate entire purse to charity
          etc etc..

          He flips & flops on everything he says.

          .
          He does flip and flop but overall there is a honesty to him.Just look at the way he agreed to the Wilder fight pretty quick .Hence Joshua/Wilder went back and forth like a yo yo and still nothing came of it.

          "UK hate me doe" Nonsense he destroyed his own momentum retiring straight after Wlad fight for 3 years and his return was still pretty big news in UK. This is nothing but a marketing strategy to gain American fans by making them feel sorry for him.
          I dont think thats facts though.Fury lost it due to having achieved everything he had set out to do in beating Klitschko .Having a mental disorder in bi polar as well didnt help eg imbalances in brain chemicals which causes extreme highs and lows.Hence felt empty and lost after the huge high of achieving his lifelong dream and becoming champion of the world.

          Now is in a much better place and realises its the boxing training that keeps him in a healthy place.Long may it continue.

          Pleased to hear that.Fury is an unstable character and needs the love and support of people to help keep him grounded.

              Im a Fury fan, His star power in the UK never reached Joshua levels even though hes achieved similar but that can be said for alot of fighters. But everybody took notice of him after he beat Klitchko but he then decided to say stuff about gays and women and the snowflakes descended. Not to mention he then went off the radar. The bad words and the disappearing act really dented his popularity immediately after beating Wlad and becoming popular.

              Im not a snowflake, couldnt care less what he said but the world has gone soft and you just cant get away with it these days without some damage happening.

                Would of been interesting to see how Joshua done against a prime Klitschko? . Hence he fought him when he was 41, 6 years past his prime.Same goes for Fury though at least he fought him a bit younger at 39.

                  Only a true scum bag sells a fight on the premise that he'll donate his entire purse to charity and then talks in riddles when asked if he did it or not saying stuff like "I'm not going to say I didn't do it for praise" and also mentions about doing it possibly in future by building housing.

                  Well why mention it in the first place?

                  I wouldn't be surprised if he made the whole mental illness thing up because it sounds better than him just enjoying his money.

                    Fury was diagnosed with bipolar and obsessive compulsive disorder in 2016. Thats solid facts though.Given them mental difficulties I think you need a fair degree of sympathy to him.Hence how would you be in his shoes?
