      Tommy Fury repeatedly booed during Floyd Mayweather undercard fight and savaged by honorary commentator Jake Paul

      by

      TOMMY FURY was repeatedly booed during his fight on Floyd Mayweather’s undercard – while being savaged on commentary by Jake Paul. The former Love Island star was one of the warm-up acts before the big headline fight in Dubai.

      First Youtube, then combat sports and now commentary – Jake Paul was relentless as he criticised his old rivalCredit: Rex
      But he faced a late opponent switch as the boxer he was originally supposed to take on, Paul Bamba, refused to accept the bout.
      His change of mind came after Fury weighed in seven pounds heavier than Bamba.
      Instead Fury took on late-replacement Rolly Lambert – and fans were far from impressed with the quality of fighting.
      Six dreadful, uneventful rounds of two minutes each followed where the two fighters barely laid a glove on each other.
      READ MORE IN BOXING
      The late opponent change meant the fight went from being a professional to an exhibition bout, which took away incentive for either fighter to risk too much.
      And it means both Fury and Lambert largely coasted their way through the contest, aiming jabs which lacked power.
      By the fourth round the crowd were booing in frustration at the lack of a fight.
      But the jeering seemed to make no difference to either fighter who saw out the six rounds without major incident.

      It was after the bout that Fury became involved in a tastier fight.
      The former Love Island star exchanged words with Jake Paul, who had joined commentary ringside.
      Fury called Paul a “b****” after the fight but Paul had already dished out his own insults over commentary, being heard to say “you f***ing suck Tommy.”
      He added: “You are a f***ing amateur, this is embarrassing. You have no d***! You have no d***.”
      And at one point Paul stopped speaking, leading to the commentator beside him to claim the boxer had fallen asleep from boredom.

      Fury has been scheduled to fight Paul on two occasions but both times plans fell apart.
      It was an all-round ill-tempered night outside the ring with a topless John Fury later confronting Paul over his behaviour towards his son. More

      Mayweather vs Deji (Round 2)
      If anyone has ever seen a boxer by the name of Prince Naseem that is pretty much what we are watching here with Floyd.
      Showboating to the extreme.
      Toying with Deji, like a cat that lets a mouse loose to just trap its tail with its paw again.
      Complete mismatch.
      Mayweather vs Deji (Round 1)
      Nothing of much note apart from lots of showboating by Mayweather.
      It does look crazy to see him now with what looks like a dad-bod.
      This is all one-way traffic, Deji has not laid a glove on him yet.
      King of the hype
      Mayweather dances around the ring as music plays.
      People can feel themselves aging in the crowd as they wait for this exhibition match to start.
      Children who came here today for this bout are now adults.
      Mayweather heads towards the ring
      The audio is well out of sync as Floyd walks in led by a rapper whose lips are not moving at the same speed as the audio being played.
      Classy start for Mayweather.
      Deji is already in the ring, let battle commence.
      Apparently we are minutes away from some boxing

      This production really do drag these events out.
      It’s about 2am in Dubai and if this exhibition match is anything like the Tommy Fury fight we may have a riot on our hands.
      You can still hear a pin drop apart from the pundits ringside with their mics, everyone else may be asleep.
      Delay to the ring-walk
      Rumours circulate that a dispute over the gloves they wear has slowed things down backstage.
      Mayweather wants 10oz gloves worn for the exhibition bout.
      As a result the ring-walk has been delayed.
      It’s all about the money
      Floyd Mayweather had a professional career which saw him fight 50 times and claim 50 wins.
      He fought 397 rounds of boxing in this time.
      Mayweather also had a 54% KO record.
      Feeling the full Fury
      Jake Paul has spoken about the incident with John Fury tonight:
      He had the high ground. Anyone that knows about war knows the high ground. That was madness. Honestly, I thought damn…he should start an OnlyFans.Jake PaulInfluencer/Boxer
      Party atmosphere continues in Dubai
      The noise within the venue is deafening, you can hardly hear the commentators.
      It is all the tension building from that boxing showpiece from Tommy Fury in that exhibition bout.
      We are still waiting for Mayweather to come out
      My dad’s bigger than yours
      John Fury summoned his inner Hulkamania as he tore of his t-shirt and called out Jake Paul.
      Demanding the YouTuber turned boxer fight him there and then.
      Paul backed away seemed interested more in a war of words than firsts.
      True WWE vibes here.

      Double Fury at Jake Paul
      Tommy Fury called out Jake Paul, demanding he get into the ring there and then.
      After his dad tore his t-shirt off and declared himself the bareknuckle king, his son them starts trying to get him, held back by his minders.
      Welcome to……Made in Dubai.

      Building to the main event
      We wait for the big fight with Floyd ‘Money’ Mayweather and Deji.
      The one we have all been waiting for.
      Hopefully more punches thrown than the last fight.
      The entertainment ramps up
      John Fury tears his t-shirt off like something from WrestleMania and demands Jake Paul jump in the ring now and fight him.
      Declaring himself the bare-knuckle champion and to fight him now.
      Both Tommy and John shout down from the ring to Jake Paul.
      This has now gone full ‘Snatch’.
      Now for something completely different
      Rolly Lambert vs Tommy Fury (Round 6)
      It is questionable as to whether bouncers would break this up in a nightclub or not.
      You most definitely wouldn’t be getting thrown out.
      The boxers dance and hug and jab.
      Six rounds of exhibition boxing ends, that was not a ‘must see’.
      Rolly Lambert vs Tommy Fury (Round 5)
      There is no danger of this breaking out into a fight anytime soon.
      A series of jabs with no weight behind the punches at all.
      The boxers hug it out for most of that round and tap gloves as they walk to their corners.
      Rolly Lambert vs Tommy Fury (Round 4)
      The crowd to continue to boo which Lambert takes offence to.
      He holds both of his arms in the air in gesture to the crowd.
      I think both boxers may have agreed ‘not the face’ before the contracts were signed for this one.

      Jake Paul called out to fight by topless John Fury after YouTube star heckles son Tommy from ringside on Mayweather card

      by

      JAKE PAUL was called out to a fight by John Fury after heckling his son Tommy from ringside. The YouTuber-turned boxer was a special guest to watch Fury’s return to the ring, in Dubai on Floyd Mayweather’s undercard.

      He was due to face Paul Bamba, 33, but a weight disagreement saw the American withdrawn.
      Instead, Rolly Lambert, 33, filled in with just hours to go for a six-round exhibition with Fury.
      The bout went the distance and Paul made his feelings known from ringside, telling Fury he “sucked at boxing.”
      Words were then exchanged from ringside, prompting Fury’s dad and coach John to rip his top off and challenge the American.

      Paul said: “You’re a miserable old man. Come fight me right now then.”
      John said: “Forget my son, I’m the king of the bare-knuckle man.”
      Addressing Paul, Fury said: “There’s a certain b**** from ringside that I want in the ring now.
      “Tell him to get in here because he would never have the b**** to get in here and fight a man of this calibre on a few hours notice.”
