      Tommy Fury stumbles to points win against YouTuber KSI after laboured display in Manchester

      by

      TOMMY FURY walked out to his fight with KSI to Michael Jackson’s Thriller – but the six round crossover clash was far from it. It was only in February that Fury ended two years of bitter feuding with Jake Paul by winning a split-decision in Saudi Arabia.

      So Paul’s arch enemy KSI stepped up to try and finish what the American started. 
      But in the end he suffered the same fate as Paul, losing a majority-decision in Fury’s hometown of Manchester. 
      Fury said: “I fought my absolute heart out and that’s all you can do.
      “I said from day one there will never be another Tyson Fury I’m just trying to be the best Tommy Fury that I can be.”

      KSI was left fuming with the controversial result and plans to appeal the loss.
      He said: “Robbery, it’s a robbery. You weren’t landing, look at your face. Look at you.
      “I’m the YouTuber and you’re the boxer, you have to win.”
      The fight got off to an electric start but the action started and soon ended there.

      KSI, 30, lunged in with a looping right hand that caught Fury’s chin and attention.
      But his hands down, fleet-footed style clashed with Fury’s herky jerky approach with the pair constantly clinching.
      Fury, 24, was deducted a point for rabbit punching after the two collided and traded shots up close and personal. 
      He bounced back well in round three with a left hook on the break which proved to be a rare moment of success for either.
      Fury ran away with the result down the stretch as the aggressor, at least attempting to initiate the action.  
      After the fight, Fury vowed “I’m done with the bulls***, f*** the bulls***” – ruling out a return to influencer boxing.
      KSI and Fury then became embroiled in a furious war of words – with the former calling for a rematch.
      He then fumed at Fury’s illegal shots – claiming the decision was “outrageous” before revealing that he plans to appeal.

      The fight came after more chaos in the bout between Logan Paul and Dillon Danis.
      Paul was heading for a comfortable points win before Danis tried to wrestle him with an MMA-style attack that sparked a 30-man melee in the ring and saw the Jiu-jitsu fighter disqualified.

      There weren’t exactly any complaints from Tommy, with most coming from his raging corner.

      But there was still time for ANOTHER talking point from the round, as the bell was rang early in the AO Arena.
      With 17 seconds left of the three minutes, the referee moved in to send the fighters back to their respective corners.

      He walks, or drives, out in a Lambo, to his first ever song – Lamborghini.

      From playing video games in his room, to this, it is simply incredible.
      Tommy Fury walks out
      Here comes Tommy Fury, and he walks out to Wonderwall by Oasis.
      That is one way to get a Manchester crowd onside, it is practically a 20,000 person karaoke session here in the arena.

      Logan Paul vs Dillon Danis – Final Round
      Logan Paul is coming out going for it in this final round.
      Danis looks like he is afraid of being made into a meme.

      IT ALL KICKS OFF AT THE END!
      Logan Paul vs Dillon Danis – Round 5

      Logan Paul vs Dillon Danis – Round 4
      Danis comes out and actually throws a punch at Logan Paul.
      He is likely down three rounds to zero, so if his plan was to wear Logan down and then attack him, he is going to have to start taking action now.
      The fourth round comes to an end, and it looks as though all four of them could have gone in favour of Logan Paul…
      Logan Paul vs Dillon Danis – Round 3
      You can see Dillon Danis doing the old Anderson Silva move as he rolls onto his back, an MMA move.
      Of course the crowd reacts negatively to this, and he gets a big bad reaction from the Manchester Arena.
      Undoubtedly Logan Paul is still winning this one, but no sign of a knockout as we head into the fourth round of six…
      Logan Paul vs Dillon Danis – Round 2
      It looks like it is two rounds to nil so far in favour of Logan Paul.
      Logan absolutely unloaded the tank on Dillon Danis at the end of round 2.
      Obviously dominating the fight so far as Danis has been so defensive, Paul is definitely the favourite so far.
      Very clear that Danis is going to need to come out and attack a little if he is going to get a result here.
      Everyone will be well aware that if Danis attacks though, he will be open to a hard counter from Logan Paul.
      Logan Paul vs Dillon Danis – Round 2
      Everyone can see Dillon Danis is talking non stop to Logan Paul in this fight.
      Mocking Logan as he sticks with this defensive style.
      If he is going to win this fight then Danis needs to engage at some point.
      Logan is backing off a little, but he needs to attack harder if he is going to knock Danis out like he said.
      You can assume Danis is trying to tire Logan out…
      Logan Paul vs Dillon Danis – Round 1
      Halfway through round one and Dillon Danis has yet to throw a punch at Logan Paul.
      I think he is defending well thus far, but Paul could be too much for him as this fight goes on…
      Logan Paul vs Dillon Danis – Here we go!
      Logan Paul mouths “I forgive you” to Danis in the build up.
      They refuse to touch gloves.
      HERE WE GO!
      The American national anthem is BOOED
      The American national anthem is sung before Danis and Paul take to the stage, and it is met with boos all around Manchester. More

      Danis refused to let his hands go heading into the third and at one point sat on the FLOOR.
      The referee felt the need to reassure that no knockdown was scored and he was instead given a telling off.
      Danis sparked into life in round four with a counter right hook but he stepped off the gas.
      Paul repeatedly landed the one-two combination but to little effect as Danis covered up in a right guard.
      The final two rounds dragged by with the sold out 21,000 AO Arena beginning to BOO the lack of action.
      Danis attempted a takedown in the final moments of the to try spark a light in the dull affair and was handed a point off for it.
      But his second attempt subsequently resulted in his disqualification. More

      Did Tommy Fury ever date Maura Higgins?
      Fury and Higgins met on the fifth season of Love Island in 2019 and hit it off immediately.
      Maura came in as a bombshell and made a beeline for Fury on the very first night.
      The pair flirted on a date while Molly-Mae, who was coupled up with Fury at the time, had to watch on.
      Higgins eventually tried to plant a kiss on Fury’s lips, but to no avail, with the Manchester boxer choosing to stay loyal to Molly-Mae.
      Most read in Boxing
      In the end, Fury stuck with Molly and chose to keep his relationship with Maura platonic, and the pair have NEVER dated.
      Molly-Mae and Maura are now good friends and the latter even watched Fury’s win over Jake Paul at the former’s house.
      The pair are likely to be sat next to each other tonight at KSI vs Fury.
      Fury is engaged to Molly-Mae and the pair welcomed their daughter Bambi to the world in February. More
