Tyson Fury’s brother, Tommy Fury, has advanced his undefeated record to 5-0, as he took out Scott Williams via KO in the 2nd round of their recent collision. But, that’s not the only thing that he achieved.
Competing with several more boxing events on the same date, Tommy Fury seems to have topped the race in PPV numbers. That said, WBC champion, Tyson Fury, has hailed him on social media, touting Fury’s recent fight to be even superior to Canelo Alvarez’s win against Avni Yildirim.
While Canelo Alvarez defended his super-middleweight titles at the Hard Rock Stadium in the USA, Tommy Fury claimed his win at Copper Box Arena in London. But on a global scale, Tyson Fury cited his brother to have surpassed Canelo Alvarez’s PPV.

Being a natural light heavyweight, he has a bigger physical frame. He also has an experience of 5-0 and can present some serious trouble to ‘The Problem Child’. But their professional resumes aren’t very different. Jake Paul (2-0) is also undefeated in his fighting career.
