TOMMY FURY grinned and refused to answer how much he had earned from his victory over Jake Paul during an appearance on Good Morning Britain.
TNT, 23, claimed a split decision victory over the Problem Child in Saudi Arabia on Sunday after years of bad blood despite being knocked down in the final round.
Tommy Fury is still celebrating his victory over Jake Paul
He refused to answer GMB’s question about how much he had earned
Fury celebrated wildly in the ring after two judges scored it 76-73 in his favour with the other favouring Paul 75-74.
He then broke down in tears as he dedicated the win to girlfriend Molly-Mae Hague and their new baby daughter Bambi and declared he would accept a rematch if Paul wanted it before the American reeled out a number of excuses for his loss.
Fury is believed to have secured a £4m purse for the blockbuster showdown in the Middle East but could have walked away with twice that amount had he taken up Paul‘s offer during the week.
The Problem Child rocked up pre-fight with a contract for Fury to sign after they had previously shaken on a double-or-nothing bet that would either see the Brit take home £8m or be left empty-handed.
However, Fury ultimately refused to put pen to paper as he held on to his agreed payday.
Love Island star Fury appeared on Good Morning Britain for his first TV appearance since the fight and showed off a plastered eye in the process and confirmed he will grant Paul a rematch.
But when host Susanna Reid pressed him about how much he pocketed from the bout, he simply said he had done “very well” before grinning to the camera.
Tyson Fury’s half-brother then said: “But not for me should I say, because everything I do now in my career is for Bambi.

“Everything I do is to make sure she’s happy and has a good life for herself.
“Whatever I can do to make sure she has that, that’s enough for me. This victory, it was for her and for both of them.
“At the end of the day, I’ve been training and Molly’s been amazing.
“She’s the best woman any man can ask for. I owe everything to her and Bambi.”
