TYSON FURY urged brother Tommy Fury to ruffle Jake Paul’s feathers heading into their fight – starting by headbutting the blonde boxer.
Tyson was ringside at Wembley Arena on Saturday as the celebrity boxing rivals came face to face for the first time.
It followed on from the announcement of their rescheduled grudge match on February 26 in Saudi Arabia.
Tommy, 23, puts bragging rights, reputations and his unbeaten record on the line against Paul, 26, in Riyadh.
And his heavyweight champion brother Tyson wants him to get the upper hand by any means necessary.
He told BT Sport: “It’s a good fight and they’re good dance partners. I think Tommy needs to do a bit more talking, actually.

“Spice it up a little bit, get in his face a bit more, and ruffle his feathers. Grab him by the blonde hair and nut him maybe, I dunno.”
Fury has twice pulled out of fighting Paul in the past, with a rib injury in December 2021 and then a US visa issue last August.
The travel problem has forced them over to the Middle East, where Tyson warned Tommy can stay if he loses.
But the pair have been training hard together for the fight and the Gypsy King predicted a win for his younger brother.

He said: “I see Tommy getting him out of there in around about five or six rounds.
“I don’t think it will go early, as he (Paul) can box a little bit, I’ve seen him boxing and he’s getting better every month.
“Tommy should get to him and if he doesn’t I’d like to see a knockout either way, for sure.”
