Carl Frampton has admitted he was "s******* himself" during a confrontation with John Fury after the pair disagreed over the outcome of his son's fight with Jake Paul.
Frampton and John clashed at the press conference for Tyson Fury's world title clash against Dillian Whyte last week.
Former two-weight world champion Frampton was one of several boxers who backed Paul to beat Tommy Fury before the Brit pulled out of their fight last December.
And a full three months later, John approached Frampton to question him on the fight prediction.
"Why do you think he can beat Tommy? Answer the question, because you disappointed me. I supported you and I looked up to you," he asked Frampton.
Frampton replied by saying he was just being honest, in which John asked if he was "p*****" before saying: "I don't want to talk to you. I'm turning my back on you, I don't want to talk to you. Get your facts right or get off the job."
Frampton has now revealed that he was taken aback by Fury despite looking unfazed by the confrontation at the time.
"He's a scary big man isn't he. Although the video doesn't really look it, I was actually s******* myself," Frampton told Boxing Social.
"It's an opinion, it's my opinion. He asked me how does a YouTuber beat a Fury and we're talking about Tommy here who's a novice in himself.
"I want Tommy to win the fight, I genuinely do. I think it's better for boxing if he wins the fight but I don't believe that he would.
"One of the reasons is he's only done four rounders, a couple of times I've seen him in four rounders and he's blown by the fourth round.
"It's a big jump up from four to eight rounders and it would be an eight round fight with Jake Paul and whatever you say about Jake Paul, he's improving."

Fury admitted he was in a " dark place " after pulling out of the fight with Paul but has pushed for a rescheduled clash after recovering from his injury and illness.
The 22-year-old is hopeful of fighting on Tyson's undercard in April and to set up a fight with the YouTube star later this year.
And Frampton struggled to back Fury against Paul due to the Brit's lack of experience in the ring.
"He's clearly got knockout power, we've seen what he done with Tyron Woodley, although he's older he put him to sleep.
"He can clearly punch, but look, it's a hard fight to call. I would like Tommy to win, but I feel like he might not."
