X Factor winner James Arthur has been involved in a war of words with comedian Frankie Boyle, after they traded insults over Twitter. James has now admitted that he may have reacted in the wrong way but says that Frankie may become a victim of his street fighting skills.

Arthur was talking to The Sun about the whole situation, when he explained, “I shouldn’t have risen to it, to be honest. But he was taking the piss out of us so much and you have to stick up for yourself.”
However, while James admits that he may be the bigger man and let the war of words slide, he also stated that he might also feel the need to lash out at the funnyman, “We may shake hands when we meet – either that or I’ll give him a backhander. I used to be a street fighter,” he added.

While James Arthur is clearly talented and has all of the attributes required to be a success recording artist, his attitude and arrogance could let him down. James Arthur has only released one single but he has already been in a number of slanging matches with other celebrities.
