Fresh off the back of his second consecutive defeat to Oleksandr Usyk, the “Gypsy King” has once again refused to accept the legitimacy of the judges decision.
Apparently he lost the first fight because it was “too easy” so he decided to come in at a career heaviest in order to “put it on” the Ukrainian.
Unfortunately for Tyson, a four stone of whale blubber weight advantage against a pure boxer/athlete such as Usyk, just wasn’t going to wash.
Both Fury and his promoter, old fish eyes himself Frank Warren behaved like a pair of ungracious, sore losing cunts during the post fight press conference.
If you were to be sympathetic towards Fury, you could argue that emotions were running high etc yet Fury has repeatedly played the cunt over the last couple of years by ducking Usyk, taking easier paydays and refusing to accept defeat whilst simultaneously being an obnoxious twat.
The AI scoring system and all three judges awarded the fight last night to the Ukrainian yet Fury and his team are crying foul.
Which is interesting as they didn’t complain when Fury won a highly dubious decision against a boxing novice from the MMA last year.
I have to cunt Tyson Fury with a slightly heavy heart because up until the last two or three years, I’d been a big fan of his. His three fights with
Deontay Wilder were epic and gave heavyweight boxing a much needed shot in the arm.
Unfortunately, he has increasingly morphed into a washed up, over weight, bully boy and should just retire and count his millions.
Nominated by Herman Jelmet.
The only pikey in history to actually earn money rather than stealing.
What a physique.
He’s an embarrassment.

I’m surprised this so-called sport is still allowed due to death risks and being knocked senseless into doolally land. Let’s have fight to the death gladiator style or fuck all.

OT. Bloody BBC.
The Women’s FA Cup third-round tie between Nottingham Forest and Burnley at the City Ground has been postponed cries the Beeb sports website.
Who gives a fuck?

If its due to an icy pitch, surly they would be able to play better in high heels and a couple of drinks down them. Even I’d watch that.
11
The what now?
4
And who has he really beaten .
Deontay Wilder = Shit boxer with a huge punch . The sort of bum that Lennox Lewis would sleep inside a round.
Wladimir Klitschko = a genuinely very good fighter but not really still at the top of his game when Fury fought him .
The only genuine hall of famer in his era has now beaten him twice and he nearly lost to a nobody MMA fighter (as far boxing is concerned ) who even Joshua battered.
Talks about being an all time great but if he stepped back to Lewis’ era nobody would have even heard of him.
Usyk I think would have held his own but as Lewis says , he’s susceptible to the uppercut and Lewis’ uppercuts were absolutely vicious , he wouldn’t be able to take those .
Not sure he’d have been able to best peak Holyfield either .
11
Lewis was very decent but got a lot of leeway from judges..
He was very fond of the rabbit punch and also holding his opponent down by the neck whilst he put the uppercut in.
Holyfield would have ruined Usyk and Fury on the same night in his prime,as would Tyson…in fact many of the post Ali champions such as Berbick,Holmes and Witherspoon would have given them both all they could handle.
I’ll not drop Ali,Norton,Foreman,Frazier into the discussion as we’d be here all night.
I dare say a fighter such as Dempsey circa 1919 would have wrecked them despite weighing in around 190lb.
Very good.

Ah yes, John “Ah were a bare knuckle champion, me” Fury.
Thus us always a good watch if you need cheering up 🙂

I have to start off by saying I wouldn’t fancy fighting him, but…
Technically he’s average, I know he’s big but lacks speed, footwork dodgy and has a terrible tendency to drop his hands in the latter rounds.
The biggest thing he has going is a granite chin and his ability to bounce back from a knockdown.
I think Marciano wouldn’t have taken too long to wipe him out.
4
Usyk is a cruiser weight all the 70s greats would have smashed him gypo tub of lard just shows what a shit show heavy weight boxing is currently.
7
If he’s a cunt what does that make his obnoxious fucker of a fat big mouthed bully boy Paddy shithouse dad?
13
Totally agree with every part of Mr Jelmets excellent nomination.
His epic trilogy with Wilder was,in modern boxing at least,a fantastic spectacle.
Everything since has been overblown overhyped overweight bollocks.
It seems likely when he does retire he’ll go completely mad,as several other fighters have done over the past 20 years.
Razzmatazz has fucked him,as did Usyk.
Hedgehog baked in clay for tea anyone?
11
In my eyes the whale is finished.Time to retire dear.

Pikey = Cunt.
Fuck him.
And his dad.
Good afternoon.

Women boxers should be able to wear horse shoes in their gloves. Another watch for me.

If a woman’s lipstick is smeared in a boxing match, is she the looser ?

I must let the ladies know that I’m a philogynist and only having a bit of fun.

Stick to tarmac and dodgy roofing…. wouldn’t even be considered as a corner man in the foreman, Frazier,Ali etc era 👊….’do ya like dags’
10
He is getting a bit old, and a bit flabby so the obvious solution would be to go into wrestling – i can just see Tiger Tyson getting in the ring with Emily Fivebellies Thornberry – what a magnificent sight – stripped to the waist and oiled up – Tyson could do himself up a bit too, if he wanted.
Just imagine that pair of animals and their cross-buttocks, forearm smashes and flying tackles. With luck he might even rip Dame Emily’s tiara off – not to mention her black directoire knickers.
9
Sumo wrestling, WC?
Fivebellies certainly looks the part, going slitty-eyed with the skin on her face being stretched by all that fat.
And as she was already a ‘Lady’, does that mean she’s now Lady Lady Nugee?
7
She would look lovely in one of those big nappy things they wear, Geordie, and you’re right – she does look a bit slitty eyed, not so much Madame Butterfly as Madam Moth.
7
Time he called it quits, two hard fights with Wilder should have been the end of his career, why go one when he obviously isn’t in shape.
$$$$$$$$

Good Afternoon
I would also add that for all Tyson’s talk of mental health issues, how much of it is down fundamentally to his obvious fondness for the old Colombian marching powder?
As anybody who has partaken in such activities probably knows, the after effects from that stuff can wreak havoc with the brain.
There used to be a bit of genuine humour and playful mischief in Tyson’s behaviour and his trash talking a few years ago but I’ve had the impression of late, that due to the copious amounts of money he’s been getting, amongst other factors, that he’s turned into a genuinely unpleasant cunt.
Basically believing his own hype.
Once he realised he wasn’t getting inside Usyk’s head with his mind games, I think we started to witness a much darker side to his personality.
8
Correct sir,he has followed in the rotten footsteps in the once talented and entertaining MMA fighter Conor McGregor,who is now a despicable cunt.
12
Once these types realise they’ve met their match they up the aggression in the media scrum and over time their behaviour becomes both bizarre and thoroughly unpleasant.
Too much money,too much adulation,too many Yes men.
Cunts.
7
I think the way Usyk and the Klitchos behaved like gentlemen in the run up to fights is far more intimidating, shows total self-discipline and control plus a lack of fear.
It’s dead easy to gob off when you’re surrounded by security.
9
You’re bang on the money with McGregor Unkle.
7
Did that paddy rapist cunt ever win anything ?
2
He did,
The UFC featherweight and lightweight titles…held both simultaneously,a first..when he was still a grounded,talented fighter.
Unfortunately for him the fame and money soon enough either poisoned him or at least allowed his true character to be revealed,in all it’s shitty glory.
5
As Sam Spade says in The Maltese Falcon “The cheaper the crook, the gaudier the patter” – that applies to Fury in (Sam) Spades

Chavscum cunt.
This thing, sand dwellers and politicians are an excellent example of all that is wrong in this country.
Top Nom.

Never struck me as an athlete, just a fat fucker ..🤡

Boxing. What a load of fucking old bollocks
16
Modern or the job lot?
5
Difficult to answer really. I think the modern stuff and the hundreds of different belts have ruined it all for me. Can’t watch a minute of it now. Full of cunts. Fighters, promotors and all the hangers on
10
Fair enough.
I agree that modern boxing seems to be hell bent on diluting itself to the sum of fuck all…but just as in any era there are still many great fighters grafting like navvies..and it could be argued finally get paid fairly.
Some of the great fighters,particularly pre war,literally fought themselves into the grave,just to put food on the table.
I suppose its swings and roundabouts..we have to put up with the ridiculous hype and assorted bullshit but at least the fighters are better looked after generally.
I trust Spain is looking after you sir.
Good health.
5
Thank you, yes, Spain is very nice at the moment. Blue skies and mid teens temperature during the day, cold enough at night for the log burner but Its cosy. Just watched the three kings parade go past, always one blacked up as he should be😂

Fury has done alright for himself out of boxing, amassing a fortune said to be somewhere between £50m and £180m, and was unbeaten until meeting up with Oleksandr Usyk. Fair enough, a good boxer with a successful career, but also one of those who preferred to pick his own opponents rather than leaving it to the governing bodies to decide.
He avoided Anthony Joshua when everyone wanted to see that fight and avoided Dillian Whyte, who had to wait over three years for a shot at the WBC title. In the meantime Whyte took on all comers and when he finally was given his chance in April 2022 he had taken a lot of punishment and was past his best.
In the meantime Fury fought Deontay Wilder three times and also fought Derek Chisora three times, why I don’t know because he dealt with him easily enough the first time and there was no need to fight him again, let alone a third time.
Other boxers have employed the same delay / avoidance tactic, notably Floyd Mayweather who slowly and carefully picked his way towards his goal of achieving his 50-0 record. Barry McGuigan was one I had a lot of time for, but he avoided Azumah Nelson like the plague. At leas he was honest enough eventually to admit that he would never have beaten him.
6
Azumah Nelson!
aye he was a bloody handful.
Barry should never have agreed to that fight in the desert with Steve Cruz(?).
Good shout.

Bent judges and sun stroke in caesars car park remember that welll.

Thank you Mr Eastwood.

Maybe if “The Gypsy King” took his boxing more seriously and stayed consistently in shape and training, he’d be more of a consistent winner instead of winning fights, then “retiring” from boxing and getting fat, then “coming out of retirement” and winning fights, then “retiring” again all so he can call himself “The Comeback King”… rinse and repeat.
The man is a walking gimmick
…. still hard as fuck though.
8
Tyson Fury has given me countless hours of entertainment and laughs,
And for that I thank him.
His dad on the other hand is a loon and walking liability.
It lessens a fighter in my opinion when they can’t lose graciously.
Fury should know better after the bullshit Deontay wilder came out with
Tired from the ring walk in his Darth Vader costume
Fury had something in his gloves etc.
Embarrassing.
It’s time to retire.
He’s made a absolute fortune, not punch-drunk , got his health
Walk away.
Everyone likes to kick you when you’re down.
But how many Fighters could do this?
https://youtu.be/knjCA2nlhQk?si=WEe3RHTfqHCfKd9U
As Paul Weller sang
That’s entertainment.
6
A splendid spectacle.
Both fighters had at it.
That’s why the gypsy bugger can never be dismissed as a poor heavyweight in a poor division.
4
My fight heroes were these lads.
Marvelous Marvin Hagler (The King for me)
Thomas ‘The Hit Man’ Hearns
Sugar Ray Leonard
Roberto Duran
Alan Minter and Charlie Magri were also decent fighters.
3
No mas, no mas
https://youtu.be/vStqOKKu4SY?si=5_dDoG2K3BxgkRPP
Roberto Duran is one of my favourite fighters too.
A fuckin right character!
Here he famously comes unstuck in his second fight with Sugar Ray.
3
Hearns vs Duran .
Probably the most vicious lb for lb knocked that I’ve seen, even to this day .
Other than the fact it scrambled a man’s brains , Hearns ko of Duran was a thing of brutal beauty
Duran half unconscious before he’s even started to fall forward onto his face .
Right hand comes through low and connects so cleanly , it’s almost recoils off his face . Must have felt he’d been hit by a sledgehammer
3
Ps
I was watching something called classic fights on some channel the other night.
It focused on respected welterweight fighter Oscar de la Hoya.
He fought Ike Quartey and won on split decision,
But in my opinion Quartey carried the whole fight
Oscars style was zombie like, a boring fighter,
May as well throw a fuckin deckchair in the ring!
Then.his fight against Shane Mosley which he rightly lost on a points decision.
He was like watching paint dry.
On boring motherfucker.

Do you know what ? I feel like a helmet for even saying it but I always felt that DLH was overrated .
Obviously world titles at six weights and an Olympic Gold is why I feel a bellend saying it but for me he lost too many pivotal fights which would have cemented greatness .
Yeah he beat some good names but lost to Trinidad , Mosley , Mayweather , Hopkins (too big for him ) , Pacquiao (end of career) but if you lose to the top names on your record , it’s not a great look .
Same for Tyson , never beat a great fighter , they all battered him (anyone says the words Prime Mike Tyson I’ll kill you)
A bully that made his name bashing up tomato cans with a very eye catching style who was found out the minute that it became apparent that there were men who weren’t scared of his reputation .
His aura was what beat a lot of fighters before they got in the ring but he couldn’t exert that psychological pressure on Holyfield or Lewis , confident enough in their own abilities and had seen through the myth
The Tyson we see now has mellowed probably due to the large amount of weed he smokes 😂 but he was a cunt for a lot of his career , loved to slap women about and I remember watching with quite a lot of satisfaction when Lewis absolutely schooled him before knocking him out .
3
OT. They actually put up a fight at Anfield. The best Liverpool vs United game at Anfield I’ve seen in a long time. Even Bruno had a go, wonders never cease. Not my favourite United captain (an understatement), but he did his job today
Still, I wish it had been Gordon McQueen (RIP) on the end of that late late chance, instead of Harry Maguire.
5
Still loves those first four Rocky films.
The first is still the best. Sly Stallone as the nice but dim lad at a dead end, given a chance of a lifetime by hotshot Apollo Creed (done great by the late Carl Weathers). Also superb support from the great Burgess Meredith as Mickey, and Talia Shire as she transforms from a mouse into a woman. Burt Young as Paulie was also excellent.
Two and three are still great entertainment. And Four has a fearsome Dolph Lundgren in it But the original Rocky is still number one.
5
Those first four Rocky movies are all classics Norman.
Man U should have won that today.

Last boxing match I watched was Barry McGuigan world champion fight back in 82, have I missed anything?
2
He needs to go back to training. Nicking lead from the local scout roof. Bronze WW1 war memorials and bags full of old ladies gold jewellery.

Whilst waiting for what’s on the agenda at ten, thought I’d like to mention why this boxer adopted this stupid name from a monkey.

Not much of a boxing fan, but I did think Mickey O’Neil was good. Another pikey!
