Tommy Fury and KSI have pulled back the attention from the Dillon Danis-Logan Paul feud towards their main event. The two had not been too active in hyping up the fight happening this Saturday. However, they made up for it by throwing bottles, spitting and banging on the glass. More like, John Fury and KSI did. The duo has involved themselves in a series of verbal jabs before they get to the physical ones just hours from now.
John Fury, the father and trainer of Tommy has been more embroiled in the feud than the ‘Love Island’ star himself. KSI humiliated the Irish bare-knuckle fighter as he spat his chewing at him. Tommy has responded to this incident in a recent interview. What led to such an event and what did the son have to say about this? Let us find out.

Dealing with KSI is like handling a 15-year-old according to Tommy Fury
After completing his session, Tommy, accompanied by his father, stepped out for media interviews. KSI threw abuses at him from a balcony, trying to get him to react. While Tommy remained passive, Father Fury threw a bottle at KSI. Reacting swiftly, KSI ducked and then spat his gum at the trainer. Luckily, Fury dodged the nasty gum and saved himself.
Recently, in an interview, Tommy opened his mouth about the incident. Calling KSI classless, and lacking in professionalism, he promised to pay him back when they meet inside the ring. According to Fury, such behavior is expected out of KSI who acts like a 15-year-old. “That’s what you’re dealing with. You’re dealing with a child from the school yard, you know? He’s not grown up. That’s stuff 15-year-old kids do. So I’m not interested in what he’s gonna say or do. We’re 2 days out from the fight and he’ll pay.”
John Fury gets violent
During the final press conference for his son’s fight against KSI in Manchester’s AO Arena, John Fury became physical. The event, set for Saturday night, ended with a face-off inside a cage with a glass panel to prevent clashes. After verbal exchanges, Fury entered the cage, striking the glass and even headbutting it. He verbally attacked KSI until security intervened, removing him from the stage. Moreover. John, who previously disrupted the August press conference by overturning tables, has played a significant role in the lead-up to the fight. His actions added tension to the event, underscoring the intensity of the upcoming match this weekend.
Both the fighters have been training rigorously now for a good long while to face each other finally. With the build-up, fans are on the edge of their seats to see who gets floored and who stands tall at the end of it. Will Tommy Fury be able to avenge his father’s disrespect? Let us know in the comments below.
