The pressure of the upcoming fight with the social media star Jake Paul is piling up on Tommy Fury. But the latter is confident that he will deliver the best shot when he meets his longtime rival ‘The Problem Child’ in Saudi Arabia on February 25. The Love Island actor who hails from a family of legit fighters bears the pressure to keep his family’s reputation intact. Because the 23-year-old Manchester United native has always dubbed himself a professional boxer and derated Paul’s boxing career as delusional.

He knows well the consequence of losing. His brother Tyson Fury, the WBC heavyweight champion, who is widely considered one of the greatest heavyweight champions of all time has already given him an ultimatum.

In an interview with TalkSports, ‘The Gypsy King’ said, “I don’t think it’s been officially announced, but I hear an announcement is imminent. They are finally getting it on and are going to throw down. The two YouTube people get to battle it out for the king of the YouTubers. It’s going to be fun, and I expect Tommy to chin him. If he doesn’t he can stay in Saudi Arabia.”

These bold words made a lot of storylines so when recently the younger Fury sat down with BT Sport Boxing to talk about his upcoming contest, the interviewer asked him to throw some light on this equation. The daring Fury fairly entertained it and stated he will not let that situation occur.

What did Tommy Fury say?

Giving a wide smile, Fury said, “no definitely not because I know my family by the end of the day quietly we’re all laughing in the background because we can’t believe how stupid this man’s been.”

Earlier, the duo decided twice to fight. They even booked a date and venue but at the final moment, all efforts went in vain because Fury couldn’t travel to the US. Paul, who knows the risks of Fury pulling out,  has already booked another fighter as a backup.
