John Fury is a bit sour about his own countrymen: “The Brit’s are traitors aren’t they? They’re traitors to their King. … Here’s where our heart lies (Saudi Arabia). Forget Great Britain.”#boxing #FuryUsyk #RiyadhSeason #RingofFire

In another interview he continued his rant.
“Tyson Fury and the Fury family will only fight again in Saudi Arabia,” he said.
“This is where our heart is, we love it, the people love us. Long live Saudi Arabia!”
“I can’t express how much I enjoy this country and the people,” he said. “And I just want to be like them… because the worst man in Saudi Arabia is better than John Fury.
“The Brits are traitors, aren’t they?” The 59-year-old exclaimed again.
“Forget Great Britain, our heart, look here, beating in my body, is in Saudi Arabia because we get treated like proper people, how we deserve to be treated.”
He really is a loudmouthed, half-witted nobody. He sounds semi-retarded, and quite honestly, he probably is if he thinks that he’s a hard man for headbutting a 10 stone kid. Disgraceful comments from a sponging hanger on who, as a very poor boxer, spent more time in the canvas than Van Gogh!
He’s a muppet, who gives a monkey about John nobody Fury, couldn’t box himself out a wet paper bag. Hitting a kid 2ft smaller than him then run away 😂😂😂😂
