"He got asked about me in the post-fight interview, he had nothing to say. He confronted me in the hallway there, had about fifteen twenty of his team [ready to] jump all over us. We were there. We were ready to fight there and then. He's big in front of the cameras and small by himself. "

Further breaking down what happened in the altercation with jake Paul, Tommy Fury said:

"Well, it just transpired about ten minutes ago. I was doing an interview down there, and his whole team lined in, Jake Paul swearing to me....

I've said this from [day] one.

Tommy Fury revealed that security personnel defused the situation before anything could happen.
