What has Tyson Fury said about Mike Tyson plane incident?

Fury, who insists he will retire from boxing after defeating Dillian Whyte to retain his WBC heavyweight title at Wembley Stadium last weekend, was asked what he made of the recent Tyson incident.

“Well, you know, Mike Tyson’s a real OG,” Fury told Piers Morgan Uncensored. “You can’t mess with Mike, you just don’t know what he’s going to do.

“All the fun police will be on Mike to get him cancelled, but how can you go around prodding a lion with a stick? How long can you prod a guy for before he does something about it? 

“Mike’s Mike. Mike doesn’t get the name ‘Baddest Man on the Planet’ for nothing, so he’s not the guy you want to prod with a stick on a plane until you get chinned - and that’s exactly what happened to the guy. And then he wants to cry about it!

“If he’s man enough to prod Mike Tyson and touch him, and call him names and abuse him on a plane, then man up and take a punch in the face! So what! You should be paying Mike. Now you can say you’ve been punched in the face by a legend and a world heavyweight champion, MIke Tyson.

“I’d pay for that myself!”
