10 Things WWE Fans Need To Know About Tyson Fury

Unfortunately, despite his shock world title win, his incredible boxing pedigree, and his fairytale comeback, the #1 thing WWE fans need to know about Tyson Fury is his controversial past.

Disregarding his personal troubles (for which he should without a doubt be recognised for shedding light on mental health issues), Fury is known by many outside of boxing for his contentious statements regarding women and homosexuals.

Arguably stemming from his devout religious background, Fury's beliefs that “a woman’s best place is in the kitchen and on her back”, comparisons of transgender people and beastiality, and his likening of homosexuality to paedophilia are nevertheless abhorrent, disgraceful and have no place in modern society.

Tyson Fury is a undoubtedly a fascinating man with an unbelievable backstory, but he is also a man with disturbingly controversial views which cannot be ignored.
