		</div><p>Tyson Fury has promised to live up to his responsibilities as an ambassador for British boxing after apologising for his latest offensive rant made in an hour-long video interview last week.</p>
<p>Fury issued a public apology on Monday following his latest bout of homophobic, sexist and anti-Semitic comments which prompted the Campaign for Anti-Semitism to demand he be banned from the sport.</p>
<p>And he vowed to do his best to bite his tongue in the build-up to his world heavyweight title rematch against Wladimir Klitschko in Manchester on July 9.</p>
<p>Fury said in a statement: &#8220;I apologise to anyone who may have taken offence at any of my comments.</p>
<p>&#8220;I said some things, which may have hurt some people, which as a Christian man is not something I would ever want to do.</p>
<p>&#8220;Though it is not an excuse, sometimes the heightened media scrutiny has caused me to act out in public.</p>
<p>&#8220;I mean no harm or disrespect to anyone and I know more is expected of me as an ambassador of British boxing and I promise in future to hold myself up to the highest possible standard.</p>
<p>&#8220;Anyone who knows me personally knows that I am in no way a racist or bigot and I hope the public accept this apology.&#8221;</p>
<p>In a 57-minute video interview which was posted on YouTube, Fury claimed: &#8220;Zionist, Jewish people &#8230; own all the banks, all the papers, all the TV stations&#8221;, as well as repeating extreme views on bestiality, paedophilia and the role of women.</p>
<p>The British Boxing Board of Control is yet to comment on Fury&#8217;s latest outburst, having issued a statement reminding him of his responsibilities after previous controversial comments in December.</p>
<p>The statement issued on Fury&#8217;s behalf maintained his comments had been misinterpreted.</p>
<p>It added: &#8220;As a man of Traveller heritage, Mr Fury has suffered bigotry and racial abuse throughout his life and as such would never wish anyone to suffer the same.</p>
<p>&#8220;He has many friends of a wide range of backgrounds and races and wishes no ill to anyone of any race, religion or sexual orientation.&#8221;</p>
