I think Tommy Fury is in big trouble against Jake Paul.

    He better have a good reason other than a cold and was struggling to be fit.

    Pathetic if that's the excuse.

    I was actually looking forward to this fight as sad as that is.

    Chest infection and a broken rib.

    To be honest I’m not having it. He’s bottled this plain and simple

    Pulling out with 13 days to go to the fight, I suspect it's down to the fact his team just don't think he's ready. Especially if he's been changing styles.

    Has it been confirmed why he's pulled out?

    Think it's been confirmed he's got a severe case of his arse falling out.

    This is off according to various sources now.

    BT won’t be happy as that PPV loot would usually pay for their Christmas party. Probably.

    Saw this coming. The one thing this “Fighting Family “ is known for, is last minute pull outs. Doesn’t take much boxing knowledge to see Tommy had a chance of being slept by the you tuber. Old man Fury, took a few of those canvas naps. Poor Tommy has the sniffles.

    Shanny got in there with a dangerous challenger when she was hit with a period on weigh-in day.

    Shame on Tommy Fury

    To be fair though, other than Tommy being a “Fury”, what is there to suggest he can beat Jake Paul? I’ve seen literally nothing, what is he good at ?

    I think they know this.

    They are both novices so I don’t really understand why it would have been that embarrassing if Tommy lost.

    Because he can’t escape his name. They haven’t helped the situation by bigging him up when he’s pretty awful.

    Big Tyson looks like he's back on the marching powder.

    If they know this it makes even less sense to pull him out as he was going to earn alot of money. Will probably mever get that chance again in his career. Seems bizarre.

    None at all. Which is why most of us wanted to see it. They've shat it, they don't believe he's good enough to beat Paul. It's too much of a risk.
