Tommy Fury Returns to Ring, Calls Out Jake Paul After KO Victory
– Tommy Fury made a triumphant return to boxing on Saturday, knocking out Croatian opponent Kenan Hanjalic in the third round.
Fury’s Impressive Comeback
Fighting in Budapest, Hungary, Fury, the 23-year-old brother of heavyweight champion Tyson Fury, displayed exceptional skills and dominant aggression throughout the bout. He relentlessly pressured Hanjalic, landing accurate combinations and showcasing a real threat on the offensive.
“I felt good in there, it was a good one. I’m glad to be back and tick off the cobwebs,” said Fury post-fight.
The victory marks Fury’s first fight since winning the reality TV show The Dancing on Ice Final in 2021.
Call Out to Jake Paul
In a bold move, Fury didn’t waste time with pleasantries post-fight. He immediately targeted fellow YouTuber-turned-boxer Jake Paul, who famously knocked out former UFC champion Nate Diaz last year.
“I’ll knock that bum out in one round, easy. I’ll fight him in March, I don’t give a f***, let’s do it,” Fury exclaimed in an X-rated rant.
Paul has yet to respond publicly to Fury’s challenge.
Presenters Steal the Show?
Adding intrigue to the event, some fans online commented on the presenting duo of Lucy Bennell and Adam Catterall, who appeared to have their own side-show while commentating. However, their antics didn’t overshadow Fury’s return.
