JOHN FURRY claimed that he is a complete idiot who weighs 17stone and broke Tommy's ribs using a punch with his bare knuckle.
Tommy pulled out of his Florida grudge match against Paul on December 18, due to an injury to the chest and a chest infection.

Behind The Gloves, Dad John said: "He had a bacterial infection in his chest for six to seven weeks. But that didn't bother him. We were going through it.
"But due to a complete idiot at the gym, punched his in the ribs. With his naked knuckle, a man of 16-17 stone punched him in his ribs and he also broke his ribs.
"At the conclusion of the day I was horrified. We were going to attempt to battle it. But when we took him to x-rayed, they said that it was just bruised and it was ligament damage.
He couldn't even throw a punch and couldn't move. He replied, "Look, I'm hurt dad."
Tyson said, "I'm in terrible pain, I can't even move." I took him to Manchester for x-rays and the result was positive.
What can you do if your ribs are broken? Chest infection, broken ribs, it is unfortunate. People have lost a lot, and Tommy and I are both disappointed.
"But, but, we'll bounceback, we are fighters, if that's a problem, it's no problem."

His victory in August against Tyron Woodley (ex-UFC champion), was his largest to date.
Fury, 22 years old, was to be his first opponent. He had no prior experience in the workplace before the Brit withdrew.
Woodley now agrees to take over late notice, instead of rescheduling.
Tommy's father and coach John have called Fury's son to fight in March and threatened to sue if Fury does not comply.

"But I'll tell ya what Jake Paul, if you're any man at all mate let's renegotiate the fight for March or I will come to America and give your brother and you a good hiding place.
I said to you, "I'll slap you both with my backhand. Do not keep talking about me. Be careful what you wish to be pal.
"Because you know what?" I'll just go and backhand the two of you. Tommy, don’t worry, my friend. He will eventually meet you.
"Because there is no other fight out here. Who is going to make big money? Only Tommy Fury.
