Lancashire's world heavyweight champion boxer, Tyson Fury, called a YouTuber a “bald-headed t****r” during a heated discussion on a recent podcast.

‘The Gypsy King’, who lives in Morecambe, launched a foul-mouthed rant at podcaster and YouTuber True Geordie, who was questioning Tyson about his upcoming fight against Derek Chisora.

Tyson is set to defend his title on December 3 after having already beaten Chisora in 2011 and 2014, in a bout that has left many boxing fans disappointed as they had been hoping Fury's next fight would be the much-anticipated showdown with long-time rival Anthony Joshua - or a fight against fellow heavyweight champion Oleksandr Usyk.

True Geordie, real name Brian Davis, questioned Tyson about the decision to choose Chisora as his opponent, describing it as a “mismatch”.

He said: “It just looks like it’s an easy money fight for you which I don’t think [you are about]… there is some confusion there for your fans.

“You’re charging the British public hard-earned money to watch this when you have already beaten him twice and he has shown he is no way near up to your level.”

Tyson said: “I am not going to let you sit there and slate somebody who has fought some of the best fighters of this era.

“There’s already been [thousands] of tickets sold so some people are obviously interested in the fight.”

At the end of the interview Brian wished Tyson the “best of luck” in the fight.

He said: “I understand where you are coming from and appreciate you and Derek are legends of boxing.

“All respect in that sense. I wish you the best of luck mate.”

Tyson said: “I think you are a t****r you little t***pot.

"I won’t be doing anymore interviews with you, you little t***pot, bearded, bald-headed t**ser.

“Kiss my balls, you little w****r. You little s***house. Suck a d***.”

Tyson then attempted to end the video call with Brian and was mocked by the interviewer as he tried.

Brian said: “Have you worked out how to close this phone? Are you alright?”

After the call ended Brian addressed his viewers and said he was glad he conducted the interview on video call instead of in person.

He said: “Have you ever been cussed out by the heavyweight champion of the world? Probably not.

“Very glad I did this on video call because that could have been a painful end to my life.”
