"It is negative stereotyping, not inside the Traveler people group but rather outside it.

But in the event that Tyson says something notwithstanding for a joke, it gets made a huge deal about."

Jones conceded there were "certain things" that Fury "would have been exceptional off not saying," but rather included: "All boxers need to be dubious. It picks up attention. In any case, frequently what he says is turned to be something unsavory.

"He has never had any media preparing and afterward unexpectedly there are such a variety of individuals chasing after him ... at that point he says things without any preparation and everything gets tossed back.

"You find that you would have been exceptional off not conversing with individuals. They make a picture that sticks. It's a tiny bit like what hosts happened with [British Labor Get-together leader] Jeremy Corbyn."
