Fury v Klitschko

Loved the line in the press conference - "I'll tell you one thing, this Klit is gonna get licked"

[Urgh! A Musíc War]

Was that on CNN or Fox?

Klitchko playing tricks now, don't know whether to set my alarm or not

I predict both of these will become world champion at some point in their career

NEW HEAVYWEIGHT CHAMPION OF THE WORLD!

Pommy mate sitting next to me reckons he's a bit of a pikey.

Impressive scalp getting Klitchko though.

A bloke from the pub doesn't think so:

Background

"Born and raised in Manchester, England, Fury was born into a family of Irish Traveller heritage.[5] His paternal grandfather was from Tuam, County Galway, which is also the birthplace of his father John Fury.[6] His maternal grandmother is from County Tipperary and his mother was born in Belfast.[7][8] His family has a long history in boxing;[9] his father competed in the 1980s as "Gypsy" John Fury,[10] initially as a bare-knuckle fighter and unlicensed boxer, and then as a professional boxer.[11] He is a cousin of Irish WBO Middleweight World Champion Andy Lee[8] and heavyweight Hughie Fury.[12] Hughie's father, Peter Fury, is also Tyson's trainer.[13] He is also a distant relative of "self-styled King of the Gypsies"[14] Bartley Gorman.[15][16] His father named him "Tyson" after then-world heavyweight champion Mike Tyson.[9]"

PIKEY!

Or does "Irish traveller heritage" have a different meaning these days?

That's exactly why he's not a bit of one.

[Bomber]

Got you now, he's not a bit of one, he's a full one!

Fury's now upset the politically correct by saying women belong in the kitchen and to make him a cup of tea. I'm starting to like the bloke.
