A Change.org petition has been set up by LGBT equality worker Scott Cuthbertson and has quickly gathered over 30,000 signatures in just three days. He wrote:
'Homophobia has long been a barrier to the participation of LGBTI people in Sport. Young people need sports personalities that they can look up to not people who express outrageous homophobic views, which can cause bullying and self-harm.'
Cuthbertson argues that Fury's hateful remarks are setting back any progress made in recent years regarding homophobia in the sporting world.
