Any idea what time this might be on Sunday? Early hours for the Americans to watch or prime time Sunday night for UK viewers?

It's not all bad though, it's great having a big bro whos heavyweight champion of the world but imagine having that banger John as your dad, he's the biggest embarrassment in boxing, anyone see him spitting Prime on the floor the other day? What a weapon
John has done most of the legwork for this fight. Tommy is on for a monster payday whereas the lad i know who spars him, with a very similar record, will be lucky to see fifteen hundred quid.
Jake Paul done the legwork for this fight despite Tommy constantly pulling out, he probably hoped Jake wouldn't offer him a third time because he'd ran out of excuses but fair play to JP, he knew it was a big fight and winnable, he put the pressure on, I believe Big John is stupid and arrogant enough to think because Tommy's the son of him he has the divine right to win, as I've said I don't mind Tommy he's a bit of a simp but harmless but the thought of Big John's meltdown after Tommy gets beat up fills me with enormous excitement and anticipation

That alone makes this is a better fight than Spence/Crawford

I reckon it will be Prime time for UK fans.

Had it been prime time for US, then no doubt Showtime would have picked it up..

But it's ESPN+ PPV.

I could be wrong.

It feels like when a boxer steps over to MMA and you just know they are going to get mauled, except this time it's a novice boxer with Love Island and Fury family connections going up against a YouTuber who seems to be gathering some momentum. Who is the biggest fake boxer? I've got a feeling it's going to be Fury, which is utterly bizarre and worth watching. It's so weird as I didnt get Eubank v Smith as I thought it wasnt worth PPV yet somehow this madness is so far out there that it actually does.

It's like a playground version of Groves v Degale

John Fury attempting to face off with a TV Screen at the 'press conference' is right up there with one of the most embarrassing things I've ever seen in my life :doh:

Incredible.
And that's why we can't knock Tommy or Jake Paul in the slightest.
We may not like it, but they're set for life off an 8 rounder. Hard not to be a bit jealous and bitter! but we gotta say well done to both. :clap:

I liked it when he was in the ring screaming at JP at ringside looking for someone to hold him back and JP was all Bro I'm just down here. :lol:

Him saying Tommy would do Jake’s girlfriend like a dog in the ring afterwards was another hum dinger.

Think most of us who will be watching will be hoping Fury gets whooped or a double Ko.

He didn't fight Mickey because he could do without catching a murder charge, he's king of the bare knuckle men and could fight Mike Tyson to the death, did you not hear him?

I didn't realize that Jake Paul was that significantly bigger than Tommy Fury. Not that that automatically means anything in boxing. Jesus willing there won't be any more injuries or illnesses because this needs to be over and done with.

You can see Tyson in the crowd enjoying the banter.

He understands selling a fight and plays the game.

Perhaps John is doing the same but he seems to take it all personally

Loved Denzil Bentley's reaction to all this when he was asked about it on BT. It's just a fight between two novices, no more no less. Neither are proclaiming anything else either. But there is genuine beef, it's a fair match. As I was always told, two donkeys can make a derby. Jake Paul wins it for me. Imagine the scenes. Maybe Crawford v Spence could go on the undercard of the rematch.

Tyson doesn’t look that big there does he, maybe the camera angle but still not convinced he’s 6’9”

I favour Paul in this fight it's crazy to say it but he's the one that has been living the life of a boxer for the last couple of years and he has power well he has power vs old mma fighters.
Tommy might be able to outbox him but we don't know anymore about tommy as he hasn't boxed anyone that has tried to win..
