I’ve had alls I can stands. I can’t stands no more. John Fury, the father of boxers Tyson and Tommy Fury, seemed to channel his inner Popeye at the KSI vs. Tommy Fury press conference.
As Logan Paul and Dillon Danis talked smack to one another, John Fury stood up and laid into them, then he laid into the entire press conference setting, overturning tables and sending placards flying. This led to the abrupt end of the KSI vs. Tommy Fury press conference, which was set to build up their Oct. 14 showdown.
It should be noted that Logan Paul relished in Fury’s tirade. As Fury tore the press conference set-up apart, Paul could be seen jumping up and down, arms pumping in the air, cheering him on.
This is the current state of boxing.
