John Fury claims that his son, Tommy, "wasn't exactly in training" for his doomed fight with Jake Paul and would have needed to lose over two stone to make weight.
The Love Island star was set to face Paul at Madison Square Garden on August 6. But he was forced to pull out of a second fight date with his American rival due to a visa issue that saw him turned away at the airport last weekend, when he attempted to travel for a launch press conference.
Fury's father is now claiming that he had been having a less-than-ideal camp before the bout was cancelled, particularly as his own involvement was limited. John is touring the UK with his son, Tyson, and claims that he wasn't able to deal with Tommy as much as he usually would.
