Perhaps the most heated came in November as Tommy fought on the undercard of Floyd Mayweather’s exhibition bout with Deji.

Fury Senior tore his shirt off and tried to get through the ropes to Paul who was commentating at the time but he dismissed it as just harmless fun.

Speaking to the Daily Mirror Fury Senior expressed that he does in fact like the Youtuber turned boxer.

He said: “I like the kid, I like him and his brother Logan, I like all of them YouTubers, they bring good stuff and at the end of the day I’m excited talking to them.”

He added: “Old people, like me, can get good vibes off young people and I love to see young people doing well in life and that’s what the Pauls have done. As well as all the other YouTubers, KSI, Salt Papi, they’re all great for the job aren’t they?”

Fury Senior is in no doubt about who will win and believes Tommy and Paul could even become friends after their grudge fight.

He said: ” I’m one million per cent confident it will be Tommy, but I’m sure they can be friends after.

“They’re just young lads doing their job and Jake Paul is very good at that job! I’m having a game with him like he’s having a game with me, always remember that. I’m an old, experienced guy in this field.”

The eagerly anticipated fight takes place in Saudi Arabia on Sunday, February 26, but fans are not happy about the PPV price.

Hands

Boxers use their arms to stop incoming blows. To do this, they raise their fists higher than their heads and move their arms in the direction that the attack is coming. The attacker’s fist is then in their face.
