Is Tyson Fury coming to America?

"I am not accepted in this country because I am a gypsy," Fury said. "I will always be a gypsy and that will never change. I am moving out of the country to America where champions are properly thought of.

"I made the decision last week to move to LA where people admire success and admire big talking I do. Why stay somewhere where people don't like what I do?
