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.

The fight is finally set to take place this month after two previously failed attempts, with Tyson expected to shortly announce his return to the ring. That is expected to be against Oleksandr Usyk at Wembley Stadium on April 29 - however, there could be a future exhibition with Fury claiming to be able to knock out fifty YouTubers in one night.
In an interview with the Daily Star, he said: “Yes, I’d fight them all at once. I don’t know how many YouTube boxers there are. But let’s say there are 50 of them. What we will do is get all 50 of them in a row and then put them all in for a round each.
“Then I’ll take them all out in one night. Why not? Each one of them will get to do one five minute round and see if they can last. That’s how you deal with the YouTubers. All in one night!”
