KATE GARRAWAY reckons Tommy Fury is scared of his dad John following his Good Morning Britain rant.
The pair appeared on the ITV breakfast show to discuss the former Love Islander’s upcoming fight with YouTuber KSI on October 14.
During the interview, Fury Sr went on an explosive rant about “being a man”.
As GMB presenters Garraway and Ben Shephard asked about his famous table-turning episode at a recent press conference, John, 59, insisted that was just usual, standard behaviour.
He said: “No, nothing got me going. That’s my normal character, Ben.
“That’s me, I like to get on with it, I like to get going.

“That’s what separates us men from the boys.
“These boys are bred on what you see there and KSI is a pretence job.
“He’s acting a part out, this is real-life everyday stuff for us, it’s a walk in the park.
“I’m enjoying it, Tommy’s enjoying it, the fans are but make no mistake about it, KSI can look in as much shape as he wants.

“But when you’re naturally bigger, naturally stronger, the desire is more and you’re a born fighter and been doing rounds with the heavyweight champion of the world, we’ve got nothing to worry about.”
Throughout the entire, bizarre monologue, Tommy – brother of world heavyweight king Tyson – sat cross-armed, motionless and silent alongside his dad.
Shephard and Garraway soon wrapped up the interview.
And laughing Garraway quipped: “I’m more scared of the dad.” despite son Tommy being the current professional boxer.
She added added: “He doesn’t mess around.
“I bet Tommy didn’t backchat.”
FURY-OUS
Shephard replied: “No he doesn’t, big John Fury.”
And viewers watching on at home piled in on Fury Sr for his behaviour.
One said: “Tell John Fury to stop acting like pr***.”
Another wrote: “And the actor of the year award goes to KSI and John Fury.”
And a third added: “Did John Fury just completely ignore Kate and only speak to Ben and name-drop Ben only?”

Fans also slammed John for ranting at a pre-recorded video message by KSI – and many felt his aggressive reaction had racist undertones as he described the YouTuber’s braided hair as a “pineapple”.
Garraway, meanwhile, felt the chills after 24-year-old Tommy’s threatening response as he “guaranteed” to put KSI in an ambulance on fight night.
