That said, many expect the younger Fury to turn the tide in his favor in this bout. However, his father, John Fury, is slightly doubtful about ‘TNT’s vulnerable mindset.
In a recent chat with iFL TV, he said, ”He should still beat Jake Paul at counter, and if he can’t, there’s no way in the boxing world for him. It’s make or break for both men.”
“Like I say, Tommy will train hard. He’ll do what he’s got to do. But has Tommy got the skill to beat him? Yes, has Tommy got the power to knock him out? Yes.”
“Whatever desire he’s missing, Tyson will put there, I’m sure of that. But am I confident he can beat Jake Paul? of course I am. The only thing that can beat Tommy on that night is Tommy, his mindset.”
