TOMMY FURY was repeatedly booed during his fight on Floyd Mayweather’s undercard – while being savaged on commentary by Jake Paul.
The former Love Island star was one of the warm-up acts before the big headline fight in Dubai.
Tommy Fury did not put in his most convincing performance in Dubai
First Youtube, then combat sports and now commentary – Jake Paul was relentless as he criticised his old rival
But he faced a late opponent switch as the boxer he was originally supposed to take on, Paul Bamba, refused to accept the bout.
His change of mind came after Fury weighed in seven pounds heavier than Bamba.
Instead Fury took on late-replacement Rolly Lambert – and fans were far from impressed with the quality of fighting.
Six dreadful, uneventful rounds of two minutes each followed where the two fighters barely laid a glove on each other.
The late opponent change meant the fight went from being a professional to an exhibition bout, which took away incentive for either fighter to risk too much.
And it means both Fury and Lambert largely coasted their way through the contest, aiming jabs which lacked power.
By the fourth round the crowd were booing in frustration at the lack of a fight.
But the jeering seemed to make no difference to either fighter who saw out the six rounds without major incident.

Meanwhile, Fury was engaged in a different type of fight as he exchanged words with Jake Paul, who had joined commentary ringside.
Fury called Paul a “b****” after the fight but Paul had already dished out his own insults over commentary, being heard to say “you f***ing suck Tommy.”
He added: “You are a f***ing amateur, this is embarrassing. You have no d***! You have no d***.”
And at one point Paul stopped speaking, leading to the commentator beside him to claim the boxer had fallen asleep from boredom.
Fury has been scheduled to fight Paul on two occasions but both times plans fell apart.
It was an all-round ill-tempered night outside the ring with a topless John Fury later confronting Paul over his behaviour towards his son.
Frequently Asked Questions
How can a beginner start boxing at home?
Boxing has been around since ancient times. Boxing was first developed to train warriors against their enemies in ancient times. Today, boxing is still widely practiced around the world. Boxing is not something you need to do in a gym. All you need is a pair of gloves, some punching bags, and a few friends to spar with.
You can also find local amateur boxing clubs where you can join and get trained by professional coaches. After mastering basic punches, combinations, and other skills, you can compete in tournaments.
Where can I buy boxing gear?
Many online stores sell boxing equipment. Some of these include Amazon, eBay, Walmart, Target, and Sports Authority. If you’re looking for cheap boxing gear, then you might want to check out discount stores like Ross or TJ Maxx.
Warrior, Golden Glove, or Premier Boxing Champions are all good options if quality is your goal.
What are the main types of boxing glove?
There are three main types in boxing gloves: mitts; fingerless mitts; and full-fingerered. The padding around the knuckles of mitten gloves is called padding. Fingerless mitts don’t have any padding around your knuckles but still cover your fingers. Full-fingered gloves have padding around the entire hand.
The mitten is used to punch or hit with the fist. For striking or punching with the index finger’s knuckle, mitt gloves can be used. Boxing gloves for full-finger punching can be obtained with full-fingered hands.
