“That’s the Big Show”: Fans in Splits as Tyson Fury Getting Knocked Down by Brother Tommy Fury in “Oscar” Worthy Sparring Resurfaces

Tyson Fury knows how to throw a punch and seize the moment. The same goes for his outside-the-ring antics. The British boxer lightens up the room with his quirky remarks and gags. Something similar happened when he sparred with his half-brother, Tommy Fury, and the resurfaced clip has left the fans in laughter.

Sparring is central to boxing, and boxers spend most of their time sparring and honing their skills. In those long, tough sessions, sometimes boxers find some moments to prank, and hilarity sweeps up the tense atmosphere. The WBC heavyweight champion created one such moment when he pretended to get knocked out by Tommy Fury.

Tyson Fury’s shenanigans with Tommy Fury have fans in delight

One fan drew parallels between WWE superstar Big Show and Tyson Fury. The size and beard bear an uncanny resemblance between the two. They said, “That’s the big show.”

A user pointed out that Fury could have used someone else as a sparring partner due to his brother’s inferior skillset.

Someone commented on how Fury let his “little brother” win.

A comment read, “Tyson is hilarious, gotta love him.”

Another fan called the performance Oscar-worthy.

Meanwhile, another user raised an alarm for “screwed” Fury.

Lastly, someone mimicked, “Just let him win this round“.”

Notably, Tyson Fury has already employed an intense training camp for the upcoming Oleksandr Usyk fight for the undisputed clash on February 17 in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia. However, the reports emerging out of the camp are not encouraging for Fury fans.

Learning from his mistake in the Francis Ngannou fight, Fury called the likes of Jai Opetaia (24-0-0), Moses Itauma (7-0-0), Kevin Lerena (30-2-0), and Alexis Barriere (11-0-0). But Opetaia soon left the camp for home after sparring only five rounds.

In addition, rumors started floating that the former cruiserweight champion had dropped Fury. As a result, he was sent home. As the rumors started getting traction, Opetaia’s team had to come up with a statement. They said, “They were fantastic, competitive rounds and incredible experience for Jai. However any talk of either boxer being dropped is not true.”

Since closely edging out Ngannou, the fans have cast a shadow of doubt over Fury’s boxing prowess and his chances against the Dagestan-born champion. Therefore, these reports will only add a thin layer of uncertainty over Fury’s preparedness for the biggest fight of his career. It remains to be seen whether Fury becomes the undisputed champion.
