TOMMY FURY avoided a major slip up by getting up from the canvas to edge out a split-decision over Jake Paul.
Fury took home bragging rights, family reputations and most importantly remained unbeaten in Saudi Arabia.
An emotional Tommy Fury broke out into celebration once his victory was announced
The pair have been feuding online for years and finally settled their dispute in the ring
The fight was feisty but lacked quality
Both fighters managed to catch the other off-guard with some jabs – but struggled to land anything decisive
Two judges scored the bout 76-73 in his favour with one going 75-74 to Paul, who scored a knockdown in the eighth and final round.
Fury was floored with just minutes to go with a jab, but seemed to lose his balance more than anything else.
The tearful 23-year-old star dedicated the win to his girlfriend Molly-Mae Hague and newborn baby daughter Bambi.
This is despite Paul knocking down Fury in the final round.
After the scrappy and at times clumsy fight, Fury broke down in tears after his huge win.
