John Fury believes that Jake Paul initiated his filthy rant at girlfriend Julia Rose by sending private messages about his son Tommy's girlfriend to the fighter.
Paul and the whole Fury family, including John, Tommy and world heavyweight champion Tyson, had an outrageous virtual press conference back in November when the Brit was first slated to face his social media rival. The family sat in Morecambe with the gathered media, while Paul appeared via video link from a pool in Puerto Rico.
And after a heated back-and-forth, then-broadcast partners BT Sport were forced to apologise for the elder Fury's language when he made some sexually explicit jibes towards Paul's partner. He insisted that after his son beat Paul, he would "bend his girlfriend over and do her like a dog," which offended many viewers more than the other coarse language used.
