Boxer Tyson Fury filmed in homophobic, antisemitic rant

Boxer Tyson Fury has reignited controversy over his beliefs with an hour-long video interview featuring frequent obscenties and offensive comments uploaded to YouTube.

The heavyweight champion boxer, who has been outspoken about his Christian faith, was filmed answering questions from a sofa after a training session. As well as commenting on his forthcoming rematch with Vladimir Klitschko, whom he defeated last year, Fury takes aim at promiscuity, transgender people, homosexuality and abortion.

He accuses Klitschko of being bisexual, saying, "Vladimir swings both ways." Apparently sarcastically, he says homosexuality is "perfectly normal".

Fury continues: "I think it'll be perfectly normal in the next ten years to have sexual relationships with your animals at home, you know, your pets your cats and dogs and all that so that will be legal.

"You are already allowed to marry your animals and stuff.

"It is going to happen though, isn't it. Whatever you can think of that's bad, will be made legal, because that's what the devil wants."

In evidently antisemitic comments, he says: "Everyone just do what you can, listen to the government follow everybody like sheep, be brainwashed by all the Zionist, Jewish people who own all the banks, all the papers all the TV stations. Be brainwashed by them all."

He says there are "no boundaries any more".

On promiscuity, he says: "Women are even taking overnight bags out with them, so they are going out just to get laid. Just like men usually do. Women are worse than that. They are taking their overnight bags because they know they are going to pull somebody and get at it that night. Filth, pure filth."

He says: "I think we should make a group, a loyalist group to the normal thing in life, just to be normal. It's like you're a freak of nature if you're normal, you're the odd one out, nobody else.

On transgender people, he says: "It's like you're a freak of nature if you're normal, you're the odd one out nobody else. What's normal? I'll just get myself changed into a woman that's normal isn't it today call myself Tysina or something like that, six foot nine, put a wig on..." He adds: "I don't think it's normal I think they're freaks of nature."

After previously being accused of sexism and homophobia he was warned about his behaviour by the British Boxing Board of Control.
