John Fury confronted Carl Frampton at Tyson Fury’s press conference
John was angry after Frampton predicted Tommy would lose to Jake Paul
Tommy and Paul were set to fight in December before Fury suffered a broken rib and chest infection.
Frampton predicted before the cancelled clash that American YouTuber Paul would get the better of Tommy.
And dad John was not happy as he confronted Frampton in front of cameras.
He said: “You think Jake Paul’s a boxer?”
Frampton replied: “No I don’t think he’s a boxer.”
To which John said: “Why do you think he can beat Tommy then? Answer the question now. You disappoint me, I looked up to you and I supported you.”
Frampton answered: “I’m just trying to be honest John.”
Fury retorted: “Honest? Honest saying a YouTuber could beat a Fury? Are you p****d?”
Frampton said: “I’m not p****d, I’m just trying to be honest.”
Fury declared: “I don’t wanna talk to you. Get your facts right or get off the job.”
John’s comments came following Frampton’s prediction for Tommy vs Paul in November.
He told TalkSport: “To be honest, I don’t really know much about them.
“I’ve seen Jake Paul, little highlights of him. I’ve seen Tommy Fury, I was actually working for BT for one of his fights as a pundit.
“I think that if you put a gun to my head, I think I fancy Jake Paul in that fight, if I’m being honest.”
