Just read online that Tyson has been fined by the BBBC to the tune of £3000 for his comments about David Price on twitter.

TYSON FURY has been hit with a £3,000 fine for his rant against rival David Price.
Fury, who makes his US debut on April 20 against Steve Cunningham in New York, was warned by the British Boxing Board of Control that he faces a lengthy ban if he steps out of line again.

The Manchester heavyweight said: “I had to go before the Board. I was told to behave myself and if I do it again I will be in bigger trouble.”

Fury had turned to social media to rage at Price: “I am gonna smash your face in you p****.”

He admitted: “It’s time to maybe quieten down a bit.

“The Board have been more than lenient and I do appreciate what they have done for me.

“I say what I think and it has cost me a few quid.

You mean dominant skilled champions?

Yeah, screw the BBBC and their unreasonable wishes of professional respected sportsmen being the people to look up to.

Perhaps he has gone a bit overboard with some of it and it was time he reigned it in just slightly, it's kind of got to a point where he's just looking stupid.

No. Boring robots. But shah nailed it. Ridiculous decision by a bbbc who got what they deserved when Haye ignored them.

Look I don't have this Klitschko robot thing that azania seems to have but surely this sort of stuff should be looked at as silly promotion and ignored by the bbboc. I agree that sportspeople shouldnt be slinging homophobic or racist slurs about but this sort of stuff should be left alone. Its daft and we kinda enjoyed the other daft stuff he was saying on your podcast.

I expected such a response.

Pity really. Some people still need spoon feeding it seems.

Supply imaginary fines to these hypothetical disgraces too.

Footballer..... "oh man....I'm going to tackle you so hard"

Snookerer...."I'm going to snooker him lots, I may just even double the black"

Dartserer...."multiple 9 dart finishes coming your way sucker"
