Fury took to Instagram to post a video in which he shared his thoughts about the fight. He stated, “It’s a pile of s**t. I don’t like anybody, what’s associated to those people over there. They are nothing but a pack of tossers, Youtubers. And I’m not interested in it, one bit in any way shape or form. So people hear this, don’t keep using my name saying that I’m saying this and I’m saying that, because it’s not true. I want nothing to do with it’s fast at all, not now, not ever.”  

The father of two well-known boxers believes he does not need to intervene in his younger son’s battle with Jake Paul. He says he doesn’t want anything to do with it.
