Tommy Fury dodges Susanna Reid question in awkward ITV Good Morning Britain interview

Tommy Fury is used to dodging punches in the boxing ring, most recently Jake Paul's after he won the highly anticipated fight against the YouTube star, and now he is dodging questions on ITV1's Good Morning Britain. The former Love Island refused to reveal his massive payday from his Jake Paul fight.

Tommy was on ITV1's Good Morning Britain dialling in via video link, with Susanna Reid and Ben Shephard interviewing him. The star refused to share his earnings but confirmed it was a "career-high payday."

Host Susanna asked Tommy: “What did you earn from the fight?” Tommy replied: “I did very well,” before grinning at the camera. At the end of the day, it was a great payday for me.”

He said: "At the end of the day, it was a career-high payday for me. But not for me should I say, because everything I do now in my career is for Bambi. Everything I do is to make sure she's happy and has a good life for herself. Whatever I can do to make sure she had that, that's enough for me. This victory, it was for her and for both of them."

Tommy added: "At the end of the day, I've been training and Molly's been amazing. She's the best woman any man can ask for. I owe everything to her and Bambi." Susanna then quipped back: “The reports are that it’s four million."

Talking to the BBC after his fight Tommy said the win was the most important win of his life. He said: “I had a dream, I had a vision that I would win this fight, but no one believed me. Now I can stand up and everyone can take note … This to me is a world title fight, I trained so hard for this.”
