Tyson Fury's First Televised Feature

See what home life is like for British heavyweight hopeful, Tyson Fury.
Broadcast: January 2009

[@josephbriffa120]

Tough people don't have to act tough. These guys are pretty humble. Admitting fear and insecurities. Nice family.

[@finnpangrazio761]

John Fury became the way he is after his father got pushed around and he started street fighting all the guys who made his dad feel small when he was only 15. IMO it does pay to act tough cause they stopped doing it after John got a reputation.

[@patriceaqa288]

Joseph Briffa I don't know why Tyson always calls himself 'ugly' he was handsome when he had hair. He's not a bad looking guy at all.

“They’re like wood- robotic as it’s said” I still think that’s one of Tyson’s most iconic quotes. Reminds me of Mike Tyson- “how dare they challenge me with their primitive, somewhat primitive skills”

Beautifully put together. Tyson fury is just a great role model for the next generation fighters

[@Paulthompson9942]

He wasn't for a long time though when he was younger he said some very silly things in front of the press but he has matured into fantastic bloke

[@patriceaqa288]

@@Paulthompson9942 I don't think he knew how to handle fame after beating Klitschko, and not only that he didn't get ANYWHERE near the respect he deserved after it. The gravity of dethroning one of the longest reigning most dominant champions in history, doing it relatively easily and kind of having it dismissed by the mainstream press added to that problem. I honestly never in my wildest dreams thought he'd get back to world level, I thought he'd blown it.

@@niceguy6152 to be fair in a street fight it could be you getting badly hurt so you have to do anything to protect yourself, I'm a former pro MMA fighter and used to get challenged on the street by idiots quite a lot although I would usually talk them down or walk away I will when I have to fight and because I was a pro fighter they thought I would fight by MMA rules but my martial arts training involved a street defence background so I know the trick is to get him out of the way asap so I'm quite happy to bite gouge and kick the groin and along with my other skills it wasn't long before everyone left me alone
