Tommy Fury fails to show up for Jake Paul face-off just two weeks before fight

Tommy Fury has failed to show up for a press conference to launch his fight with bitter rival Jake Paul.

Fury is set to face Y ouTube star Paul on February 26 in Saudi Arabia as the pair prepare to settle the scores in the boxing ring at the third time of asking. The ex-Love Island star has held a long-standing feud with Paul, which has seen the pair try to arrange a clash on but on both occasions it has failed to materialise with Fury pulling out.

In his most recent attempt to meet Paul, Fury was forced to abandon plans to touch gloves after being banned from travelling to the US, which continues to spark fear over if he will show up for their showdown. However after declaring he does not intend to break his training camp for a press event, Fury has failed to arrive in the Middle East and has opted to wait until fight week for another face-off.
