John Fury has slammed boxing promoter Eddie Hearn for his recent comments. Hearn criticized Fury for his remarks at a recently concluded press conference for the much anticipated Jake Paul vs. Tommy Fury boxing bout.

John Fury took to Instagram to post a video of himself confronting Eddie Hearn about his derogatory remarks. Fury, who is WBC heavyweight champion Tyson Fury's father, explained the reasoning behind his words at the press conference of Tommy Fury vs. Jake Paul and said that the fight game is unforgiving and unfiltered. He said:

"Eddie Hearn mentioned the Furys again, saying that, specially this Fury, is embarrassing, distasteful, disrespectful. Listen mate, when you live in a glass house like an aeroplane, and you are throwing boulders at people, you expect one to land back at your head anytime, mate. And you do live in a glass house mate, so be careful what do you say about all this, look in the mirror and have a long hard think about your own life before you call others... So say nice things about the Furys because John Fury will bury you. I'll bury you... So stop with this jealous bullsh*t, because it's a bad, bad thing to be a green-eyed monster."

Eddie Hearn discredited the recently concluded press conference between Jake Paul and Tommy Fury in an interview with iFL TV. The British boxing promoter expressed his opinion of the press conference and said:

"I thought it was disgusting, to be honest with you. You got the younger generation watching there, and I actually felt for Frank Warren because I've been there I know how cringe that is, [when I was] with KSI and Logan Paul. Frank was embarrassed. The language was terrible... It was disgusting, it was tasteless... And [I'm] over the moon that I'm not involved with [this event]."
