There's something about boxers and their opinions. Manny Pacquaio, for example.

I put it down to a job that involves regular brutal physical assault and repeated head injuries, personally. Just my guess.

[Rhiannon]

Well for a lot of them it's a case of a life of boxing or a life of knuckle scraping, getting pissed and fighting. They aren't the brightest before the repeated blows to the head.

[Brownie]

I agree with Rhiannon but still he should have known better, it was a very nasty rant.

There is never an excuse for racism!

[Brownie]

Not strictly racism floo as Jews are not a 'race', they are a 'people'.  That was pointed out to me years ago by a Jewish scholar!  In any case there are Jews in most races.  Sorry to be picky.

What the Tyson bloke says is something he read or someone else read and told him, it's very old hat, conspiracy-theory stuff.  Horrible.

No surprises there that Tyson Fury would choose being offensive as a way of getting publicity - I guess that's the price for protecting freedom of speech.

I thought I remembered that this indvidual has form for this sort of thing: http://goo.gl/R3pAfP

[Brownie]

I remember that too.  Nasty man but I daresay he'll be popular in far right circles.

Never heard of him before, and hopefully won't in the future.

Yet another loopy celeb behaves badly to get attention, perhaps he hopes to get a slot on one of those programmes where spoilt brats can't cope.
