Tommy Fury will fight ‘whoever has the most followers’ after tonight’s boxing bout with KSI, according to his father John.
The 24-year-old is currently preparing for tonight’s blockbuster showdown at the AO Arena in Manchester.
Tommy has won all nine of his fights so far, including a memorable victory over Jake Paul at the beginning of the year.
However, KSI wouldn’t be shocked by the YouTube icon’s turn to sports in recent years.

The 30-year-old player has also not lost any battle yet.
Tommy Fury is keen to keep the name intact and, as he has a boxing licence, he needs to win to really make his mark in the sport.
And his father, John, has told the Daily Mail that his son will fight ‘whoever has the most followers’ after his fight with KSI is over – which suggests he won’t be returning to regular boxing any time soon. Will go.
“Whoever has the most Instagram followers, whoever has the most Twitter followers!” When he was asked about Tommy’s next opponent, he said this.
“Whoever they want to see Tommy fight he will fight. If need be he will fight Canelo Alvarez if the money is right.
“He’s in the big leagues now. He’s worked hard to get here and let’s just keep pushing them and keep beating them.
“It’s up to Tommy, if he wants to go back to traditional boxing it’s up to him. If he does it, it won’t be about the money.
“There are guys fighting for world titles but the earnings of these guys are nowhere near what they make.
“It’s a business and whoever put it together is a smart person. We just agree on the business, get over the fights.
“Misfits Boxing is a lot of fun. There’s no stress, there’s no hiding.
“It’s much better, it’s much fairer.
“The boys are coming out to their best and credit to them.
“The world loves him even more than the current world champion, so let’s get on with it.”
In preparation for battle, tempers flare.
KSI was outraged after the 59-year-old threw a bottle at his opponent.
KSI is confident that he can surprise and defeat Fury, and insists that he will take down Tommy in front of the world’s eyes.
But Fury disagrees with that prediction and thinks the YouTuber will be left ‘crying like a chicken’ after it happens.
He added, “It’s good for him to dream – but he may as well keep dreaming.”
“Good luck to the guy, he’s coming to fight but there’s no way he can beat Tommy.
“I don’t care who he trains with and what his mentality is, there’s no way in the world he can win.
“This is nonsense, ridiculous that he could even think that.

“A man who has been fighting all his life has toyed with the best fighter in the world who was born to fight.
“A guy is doing some YouTuber and just boxing for five minutes. How can he win? Come on. Shake your head.
“He can run around the ring screaming like a chicken and when Tommy catches him and knocks him out that’s what happens.
“Let him dream and do big things, enjoy the time because this is the only time he will become great.
“On Saturday night you’ll see the difference between a guy who can fight and a guy who can’t.”
