SPOTY - Take me off your list 16:49 - Dec 2 with 1378 views

Tyson Fury has demanded the BBC take him off this year's list of contenders for the Sports Personality of the Year award, and implored his supporters not to vote for him.

Fury was one of six athletes shortlisted this week for the award, alongside Lewis Hamilton, Ronnie O'Sullivan, Stuart Broad, Jordan Henderson and Hollie Doyle.

The world heavyweight champion wrote on his Instagram account: "This is a message for @bbcsport and their SPOTY award — please take me off your list as I'm the people's champion and have no need for verification or any awards.

"I know who I am and what I've done in the sport. I have the love of the people which means more to me than all the awards in the world. To anyone who supports me, don't vote."

Fury's previous appearance on the shortlist in 2015 caused controversy, with over 100,000 people signing a petition calling for the boxer's removal over a series of outspoken comments on homophobia and abortion.

But in 2018 Fury's omission from the final list, following his draw against Deontay Wilder, drew criticism from the boxer's camp, including his then trainer Ben Davison, who called the decision a "shame".

This year's winner will be revealed at Media City in Salford on December 20.

Yep Northern Ireland 's great.

won it more times than Foggy.

It is criminal and you have noted this well Sir.

Far and away our greatest motor cyclist for many years. Bike racing has always been the poor relation to F1 for British media .

Bikes far far better entertainment than F1

Tyson Fury’s asked his fans not to vote for him. I think everyone should vote for him now just for a laugh.

Let's see..

Banned for taking performance enhancing drugs...

Said he believes that "a woman's best place is in the kitchen and on her back"...

Likened homosexuality to paedophilia and wishes to see homosexuality made a crime...

Said that "people who follow the law are brainwashed by the Zionist, Jewish people who own all the banks, papers and TV stations"...

There's far more which is just as disgusting. Why he is even nominated for an award celebrating someone's personality quite frankly bemuses me.

SPOTY has very little to do with actual personality, it's all about success. If it were really about personality Fury would be up for a rotten egg award.

There should not even be a short list you should be free to vote for anyone you like, no a PC list designed to tick all the tick all the boxes for inclusion and diversity.

Ah yes, Khabib. What a wonderful personality he has. His comments earlier this year where he encouraged violence against anybody who says something nasty about Muhammad are the actions of a man worthy of winning an award celebrating personality.

Hamilton a worthy winner. Shortly to become the GOAT in his chosen profession.

Pain or damage don't end the world. Or despair, or f*cking beatings. The world ends when you're dead. Until then, you got more punishment in store. Stand it like a man... and give some back.

Not the first winner of this stupid award who has made pathetic comments tho is he, why do you not mention the vast amount he does for kids charities, you also have a guy in Hamilton who avoids paying his taxes winning the main award, swings and roundabouts really.
