MOLLY-MAE HAGUE, the girlfriend of Tommy Fury, has fired back at Jake Paul after he announced the birth of their child.
Paul, 26, is set to face Fury in a highly-anticipated fight in Saudi Arabia on February 26.
Just days after the clash was confirmed last month, Molly-Mae welcomed daughter Bambi into the world.
But the pair had not publicly said anything about the birth when Paul came out and revealed the news.
Now Molly-Mae has responded with a short, sharp comment to the internet star.
Speaking in one of her YouTube vlogs, Fury referenced his bout with Paul by saying: “26th Feb, be there or be square”.

Molly-Mae then swiftly added: “For a demolition job!”
Paul gave an apology of sorts after revealing Bambi’s birth, telling SportBible; “Did I do that? I leaked it? Oh s***. My bad. I’m sorry, Tommy.
“But don’t worry, I won’t tell anyone the gender or anything like that.”
However, he quickly switched back to trash-talking the Love Island star when Fury failed to show up to their press conference in Riyadh on Wednesday.

Commenting on Fury’s absence, which was due to training responsibilities and “private matters”, Paul said: “I’m used to his behaviour at this point, he’s unprofessional and he’s a flake.
“He’s not a serious businessman or a serious fighter and I’m going to prove that. It’s why this fight is called, ‘The Truth’, because the truth is going to come out. He’s going to have to pay for all of the times he’s pulled out.
“All the business people he screwed over, it’s disrespectful. There’s some of the biggest names in boxing, the biggest promoters and most influential people in the world.
“One of the greatest countries in the world and he doesn’t want to show up because of a ‘private matter’. We all have private matters.
“When you sign up to do something, you make a commitment, that’s what it should be about.
“It just shows me he’s scared because he said he didn’t need to train for this fight. Meanwhile, his first excuse was that he needed to train extra, but now it’s a private matter.
“I love Tyson but it’s typical from the dad [John] and Tommy.”
Fury’s failure to turn up to the presser has led to concerns over whether the bout will go ahead.
He has pulled out of the fight twice in the past, but attempted to reassure fans in a recent interview.
He told MMA Fighting: “I can clear that up in two seconds [the press conference no-show].
“Basically, Jake Paul signed up into the world of professional boxing and I am a professional athlete, a professional boxer.
“I always have been and [ask] any professional boxer and they’ll tell you this.
“No one breaks camp, mid to the end [of training camp] to fly all the way to Saudi Arabia, have a 10-minute press conference, fly all the way back to Manchester, complete my camp then fly all the way back to Saudi Arabia again the following week.

“Now why the press conference couldn’t wait until a week later on fight week is beyond me.
“Most big fights, they schedule press conferences on fight week. I don’t know what is going on there.”
