Tyson Fury lays out fight challenge to 50 YouTube boxers ahead of Tommy Fury vs Jake Paul

Tyson Fury has said that he could take on up to 50 YouTubers in one night, with thee undefeated WBC heavyweight champion aiming a dig at the world of crossover boxing.

Fury's brother Tommy is set to face Jake Paul later this month in a fight which has prompted thee self-styled Gypsy King to make the claims. Despite Paul holding a professional licence and an unbeaten record, a defeat to the American could lead to the Love Island star being effectively 'disowned' by the rest of the Fury family.

While the comments have been made in jest, there is a clear disdain for the world of celebrity boxing from the Fury family, with father John saying he wanted 'nothing to do' with Tommy's cancelled fight with Paul last summer. However, this did not stop the 58-year-old removing his shirt to confront Paul ringside in Saudi Arabia back in November.
