NEW footage has emerged showing the start of Tommy Fury’s brawl with fellow Love Island star and boxer Idris Virgo at KSI’s fight with Joe Fournier.

But it was Virgo, 25, who grabbed the attention of Fury earlier on in the evening at Wembley Arena.
And the latest clip to have been shared on social media shows the moment Virgo confronted Fury – before the brother of world heavyweight champion Tyson stood up and ignited a scrap with the 12-0-1 fighter.
Virgo posted the video on social media, saying: “Tommy Fury is a coward.”
He also added the caption: “KSI, when you’re done with Tommy Fury, let me know.”
Virgo fought on KSI’s undercard in January, beating Anthony Taylor.
Ever since Fury came out of the Love Island villa in 2019, he has been called out by Virgo.
But he was busy feuding with YouTuber-turned boxer Jake Paul.
It culminated in a massive grudge match in Saudi Arabia, which Fury won by split decision.
As a result, KSI has now set his sights on Fury.
Fury travelled to London for KSI’s fight on Saturday evening and before brawling with Virgo, it was revealed negotiations to fight the YouTube sensation are progressing.
His dad John said: “We’re talking to his people, they are talking to me, we’re close.”
Fury has claimed KSI will be an easy night’s work.
He said: “In my opinion out of all this influencer boxing stuff, I beat the top of the tree.
“Jake Paul’s the best out of all of these, so all this now is easy money baby.”

Punching Techniques
There are seven types: Left Hook (right hook), Right Hook (uppercut), Cross (cross), Straight, Overhand, Underhand. Each punch is different. Some punches need more power than others. For example, an uppercut is a powerful punch. However, a straight punch is much more powerful and faster than other punches.
There are also different combinations. These are combinations of punches that work together to achieve a specific goal. One combination can have many parts. For example, a combination of a left and right hook will result in damage to the opponent’s jaw.
Guard Techniques
To defend himself from being attacked, a boxer uses his entire body. He does this using his legs and arms, elbows as well as hands, knees and feet.
Legs
A boxer must use his legs to defend against kicks. When he’s hit, he raises his right leg and runs away from the attacker. To avoid being kicked in the side, he bends down if the attacker attacks from the front. However, if the attack comes from behind, he stands up straight and blocks the kick with his foot.
Elbows
Because they cause great pain, elbow strikes are extremely effective. An elbow strike may be delivered directly or in an indirect manner. Directly, you strike your opponent with your forearm. Indirectly, you hit him with another portion of your arm.
Hands
Boxers use their arms to stop incoming blows. They raise their fists high above their heads and point them in the direction of an attack. Then they make contact with the attacker’s fist.
Knees
Boxers should bend their knees when receiving blows to the abdomen, stomach, or chest. Knee strikes can be used to defend yourself.
Feet
If he is being attacked, a boxer must take a step back and counter-attack. He can then gain distance from his opponent. A boxer must also maintain his balance when responding to an opponent’s counter-attack.
Stances
In order to box effectively, a boxer needs to establish a stance. The way he defends himself will be determined by his stance. It dictates how he places his body and faces his opponent. There are many stances available to boxers. Here are some of the more popular ones:
- Low stance
- High stance
- Southpaw stance
- Western stance
Body Movement
A boxer must be able to move around his opponent in order to win a fight. This requires changing your position, speed, and rhythm.
Rotation
Rotating his arm to increase the puncher’s reach is a key part of boxing. The rotation is done at different speeds depending on the type of punch.
Combinations
Timing of each punch is crucial to the effectiveness of a combination. A combination that works well starts with strong punches and ends with weak ones is a winning combination.
Spares
Sparring, a boxing practice session, is designed to improve your boxing skills. Sparring allows a boxer to improve his mental and physical skills. The goal of sparring is to learn to fight, and not to get hurt.
In conclusion, learning to box requires dedication and patience. Boxing is a sport that requires dedication and perseverance.
