Tommy Fury says he’ll ‘slap Jake Paul in the face’ at ringside of Floyd Mayweather Jr vs Deji fight
Tommy Fury is not concerned by the fact that his two rivals, Jake Paul and KSI, will be ringside for his next fight.
The younger brother of WBC heavyweight champion Tyson Fury, will be fighting on Sunday night against Paul Bamba (5-2) on the undercard of Floyd Mayweather Jr vs Deji.

British social media star turned boxer, KSI, will be ringside to support his brother in the main event, while his American counterpart, Jake Paul, will also be there having been invited as a special guest.
Fury has previously been scheduled to fight Paul twice, but on both occasions the bouts have fallen through, while KSI has also called out 'TNT' on numerous occasions.
Should Fury come face to face with either man on Sunday night there could be fireworks, but the Brit says his only concern is moving his professional record on to 9-0.
"I'm not interested who's there," .
"There could be a million Jake Paul's sat ringside, my mindset is laser focused on Paul Bamba and getting him out the way.
"Then I'll jump out at ringside and slap him in the face.

"So, I'm not really bothered about Jake Paul or KSI or whoever they're with, because it's a load of boys really against a load of men - that's what it is."
This comes after Fury explained at last Friday's press conference that he is fed up with being asked about Jake Paul and he will only be interested when the pair are in the ring.
“I’m not interested in all this bulls*** that people keep saying. I’ve heard it for two years now with Jake Paul this, Jake Paul that. If we’re not in the ring, I don’t give a s***," Fury said.
“Think about my life, every single day of my life, ‘When are you fighting Jake?’ I’m not interested. I’ll fight him right now, no problem, because there’s no-one on this stage or anyone in the country who is built like us.
“When you sign to fight us, you’re going to have to kill us. I know it’s early on in my career, but you’re going to see the same characteristics that you see in Tyson in me.
“You have to knock us dead to the floor for us not to get up and people can laugh and take that whatever way they want, but if you come up against the last name Fury, you’re in for a fight.â€
