Frank Warren also attended it via video. Meanwhile, Tommy Fury dressed up and brought John Fury and Tyson Fury alongside to the BT Sport office to attend live.

Matchroom chief Eddie Hearn also had his eyes on it but didn’t like the way it turned out. Hearn, who promoted Jake Paul’s brother Logan Paul in his maiden pro boxing debut, shared his raw emotions on the recent Paul vs Fury presser. He sounded off on the whole thing.

In a chat with IFL TV, Hearn said, “I mean, even actually for one time, felt a little bit Frank Warren. Because I have been there on a much less cringed stage with KSI and Logan Paul. Frank was embarrassed. I mean the language was terrible.”

He added, “Nothing like you heard the other day. It was disgusting, it was tasteless. The language was terrible. I mean but anyway, me saying that it’s just ‘Oh Eddie’s just because he is not involved in the event.’. Over the moon, I am not involved with that.”
