Tommy Fury finally admits brother Tyson caused injury which cancelled Jake Paul fight

Tommy Fury has admitted brother Tyson broke his rib and forced him to pull out of his fight with Jake Paul.

Fury finally settled his rivalry with YouTube star Paul in Saudi Arabia in February winning by split decision after months of trash-talking was finally concluded. The pair eventually touched gloves after a dramatic saga which included two failed fights with Fury unable to compete on both occasions.

The bitter rivals were first set to meet in December 2021 after Paul's split-decision win over Tyron Woodley, but the ex-Love Island star was forced to pull out after breaking a rib. Many suggested that Fury's heavyweight champion brother Tyson was responsible, after footage emerged of the star having a medicine ball crashed on his abdomen during a training drill prior to the bout.
