“I’ve already made it quite clear to Frank Warren – he is not allowed to be commentating on my son’s fight, otherwise there will be a problem.

“That’s black and white, the nation can hear me. He’s a hater, I don’t want him near my family, that’s the bottom line.

“They know me, BT, and I will not be silent if he’s there.”

And John claims he won’t have any issue getting Haye ejected from his commentating duties as the retired fighter has never got a fight prediction correct.

He added when asked if it will be a challenge getting Haye removed: “No, it’s not difficult because he’s never got a prediction right.

“He’s the worst pundit in the world and I’ll tell you why – his heart rules his head.

“Because he would have his crown jewels chopped off if Dillian Whyte could beat Tyson Fury.

“And I don’t want people, them negative vibes, around the ring.

“I’m sorry, but that’s the way it is.”

John reckons Haye is so envious of Tyson that he would pick Santa Claus to beat the Gypsy King if Father Christmas was his opponent next week.

And Fury Snr believes there are a lot of other commentators out there who aren’t biased towards Tyson and who will do a better job than his son’s long-time adversary.

John continued: “There’s a lot of good commentators out there, not one-sided, talk the truth, equal, sit on the fence, they watch the boxing and whatever’s happening, they comment the truth.

“Better people than him.

“He would say Santa Claus to beat Tyson Fury next Saturday night.

“He’s a hater, always has been and he’s jealous of Tyson because he’d love to be the man Tyson is and he can’t, and jealousy consumes him.

“It’s been proven and I don’t want him near the show.”

When asked if he being hyperbolic with his response, John concluded: “No, not in my eyes, no.

“Everybody that Tyson’s fought it’s, ‘Oh, they’re gonna beat Tyson, they’re gonna beat Tyson.’

“How many times can he be wrong?

“It’s a no-flight zone to the Fury job for him, I told Frank last night that’s what I want.”
