Tommy Fury runs 10km in less than 45 minutes amid claims he was unfit for Jake Paul fight

Tommy Fury ran a 10 km race within less than 45 minutes as he looks to shut down reports that he was training poorly for his doomed fight with Jake Paul.

Fury was forced out of a $2million payday against Paul this week, with the official reason being that he couldn't get into America in time for their August 6 fight date. But his dad John claimed yesterday that he had ballooned to over 230lb and wasn't training for the fight properly before it was called off.

Tommy, for his part, has rubbished his dad's claims, calling them "bulls***", and warning fans not to listen to any news about his career from anyone but himself. To further prove his fitness, the 8-0 boxer signed up for a late notice entrance into the Run North West 10 km race, which he completed in under 45 minutes.
