Tommy Fury belittles KSI by making bold Jake Paul claim ahead of fight
Tommy Fury has rubbished KSI 's boxing skills ahead of their fight by insisting that Jake Paul was a tougher opponent.
The Love Island star handed YouTube boxer Paul his first professional defeat when they fought back in February and he looks to do the same to KSI on October 14 in Manchester. The rivals came face-to-face at a launch press conference in London on Tuesday as all hell broke loose, with Fury's dad John trashing the stage as security was forced to break up a scuffle.
Fury was dropped in the final round of his fight against Paul but did enough to win a split decision on the night. Paul has since rebounded from the loss by beating UFC legend Nate Diaz and Fury was complimentary of his former opponent's skills whilst trashing KSI.

"I don't think KSI can tie Jake Paul's boots up to be honest. I've seen him there up close and personal, he's nothing but a middleweight. He's two weight divisions below me, god help him on the night after the weigh-in when I refuel. He is eating everything he can to make the weight whilst I'm cutting to make the weight, once I get to the weight and put it back on he won't be able to get out the first round," Fury said.

"He's a loudmouth on camera and a s***house off camera too. I'm one million per cent certain that I'll beat KSI, there is no doubt in my mind. I've beaten tougher men than him already. I'm going to go in there and dismantle this man inside two rounds. I've never been a fan of KSI, don't like him. I'm going to the public a great service by taking him out. I respect any man that gets through the ropes, but I don't respect KSI. No respect there for me."
KSI and Tommy Fury fight on October 14 (PA)Fury was ringside for KSI's fight against Joe Fournier in May and he wasn't impressed with what he saw. "It was a funny night, because the stuff he was doing in the ring is something you would see 12 year old's do in the gym. When someone can't box very well, they box like KSI. They do erratic stuff because they don't know what they're actually doing.
"People want to see these guys get knocked out so I'm kind of the Cape Crusader of YouTube boxing as everyone wants to see me come in and destroy these guys. One has already been done, this one will be done in a matter of weeks and then it's just onto the next challenge."
