Fury has hit the headlines for all the wrong reasons since his victory in Düsseldorf on 28 November, with his inclusion in the BBC’s Sport Personality of the Year shortlist sparking a petition to have him removed following reported sexist and homophobic comments.
Of fellow SPOTY contender Jessica Ennis-Hill, Britain’s Olympic heptathlon champion, he said: “She slaps up well”.
The complaint only concerns his remarks about homosexuality.
“There are only three things that need to be accomplished before the devil comes home: one of them is homosexuality being legal in countries, one of them is abortion and the other one’s pedophilia”.
Fury had previously said: “I know for a million per cent I’ve got more personality in the end of my little finger than the whole of the nomination group put together”.
I first got involved in sport when I was around seven, clinging on to every word England’s footballers said as if were the law, at an age I also believed my parents when they told me Father Christmas was real.
Fury has caused outrage in some quarters for being nominated alongside the likes of Andy Murray and Lewis Hamilton for the prestigious BBC Sports Personality of the Year award, something plenty of people have made it known they are against.
