Congrats to Fury

Not on anything boxing related. His reality show is one of the top 10 most viewed shows on all of Netflix at the moment.

 

I watched it. The man is haunted by his bi-polar affliction. So is his family, trying to cope with his almost hourly moodswings. His father actually seems like an Ok dude, given I only knew him from pre-fight antics, thinking he was just a nut job.

Meanwhile, Francis is being trained by Iron Mike, probably a PR stunt, but then again, Mike has exceptional potential as a coach.

 

Was thinking of checking it out but it looks just like any other trash reality tv show. But kudos to him for making money off of that. Still needs to stop running from Usyk.

 

His "alright dude" father pulled a man's eyes out and did hard-time for it.

 

Shit sells.

 

Guy seems like a genuine nightmare to deal with.

'Yo why do you keep acting like an erratic selfish bellend?'
'Im sorry but I cant help it, Im powerless against this terrible diseeeeeasse'

 

Basically this.

Fury uses mental health as a crutch to be an asshole.

 

Lol. Only did 4 years for ripping a man's fucking eye out.

 

The racism of low expectations. Ostensibly it was an internal feud/vendetta and the systems attitude is "these people are just like that"

He has, quite coyly, reinvented himself as an all-round buffoon but he's a properly dangerous bastard in his own right make no mistake.

 

Yes. Just like Huw Edwards or Tom Humphreys etc. It's a crutch.

 

Its gotta be the major downside of being the gazillionaire heavyweight champ, nobodys ever gonna slap you clear of your own bullshit.

 

Fury's people have a well-earned reputation for egregious domineering behaviour. They love to impose themselves on a situation even if they have nothing to offer themselves.

 

I did not know that, he comes across remarkable easy going during the series.

 

Psychopaths can do that pretty easily.

 

Yeah I find that too..... I don't think he's a psychopath but he's certainly a liability to himself and those around him. I've seen him flip especially when challenged. Watch this....

 

"your gay lover Tony Bellew"

 

Lol everyone's seen that clip. It's famous.

 

Ya Plummer from Livahpool.

 

His demeanour changes about 4 times in 20 seconds.....

 

That still cracks me up.

 

Fury said this at a time before the alphabet community completely took over. If he said "you and your gay lover" in 2023, the media would have crucified him and called for his cancelation.

 

He was a bit cancelled because of his homophobia, when he was nominated for athlete of the year in the uk after beating wlad

 

Correct. He was cancelled until he was able to rely on that other great modern crutch, 'mental health issues', which allowed him to become 'rehabilitated' once more.

What's hilarious is you can tell his disdain for Price is 100% genuine.

 

Yup. Never gets old.

He re-wrote his "narrative" so that he no longer comes across as a "toxic narcissist."

Tried to use as many 2023 buzzwords as I could think of.

 

Kind of shocking to think they were on a collision course back in the days and that David Price was (IIRC) more highly regarded. Edison Miranda and Jean Pascal was also the same, basically everyone thought Miranda would decapitate Pascal at the height of their ''beef''

 

Fury was in a bad place , though. Guy ballooned up to 400lbs and was hiding in a caravan eating bumper-bags of Moam and Quality Street.

The difference here is that it wasn't the GAY backlash that put him there. He was already well on the way by dint of being a guy who placed far more weight on status and prestige than he does on riches or titles.

The world doesn't really reward guys with any values, especially values like his.

 

This was his response to the attempt to cancel him. Not sure why but I thought it hilarious at the time and still do:

I observed a very distinct failure on the behalf of the BBC guy to believe in the Lord Jesus Christ. He was not saved, accordingly.
