Piers Morgan interviewed Tommy Fury about the fight

Piers Morgan in his recent interview with Tommy Fury, asked, “What’s gonna happen in this fight? Are you knocking him out?”

In his response, Tommy Fury said, “I know I’m gonna knock him out. This fight will not go any more than four rounds. I’m doing in the gym,”

He sounded confident. Well his fans can only hope that he doesn’t disappoint considering that he hails from a family with a rich history in boxing and bare knuckle fights. Moreover,  his brother, Tyson Fury is a heavyweight champion,

It was very obvious to hear such comments before any big fight. Recently his father and trainer, John Fury, has claimed that it will be very easy for Tommy Fury to topple Paul. Not only that, but his father also claimed that Anderson Silva vs Jake Paul fight was ‘fake’.

Meanwhile, Jake Paul has fired shots at Tommy ever since the fight has been finalized. He brutally mocked Tommy Fury over his and Molly Mae’s baby announcement.

In response to Molly Mae’s social media post, Paul commented, “Just in time to watch your dad get knocked out”. Again, in an interview with iFL TV, he sarcastically said, “Did I do that? I leaked it? Oh s***. My bad. I’m sorry Tommy, but don’t worry, I won’t tell anyone the gender or anything like that.”

However, let’s see what the fans are saying during the interview.
