Tyson Fury’s younger brother, Tommy, impressing boxing fans as he trains with Ricky Hatton
The light-heavyweight is set to make his professional debut on December 22 on the Warrington v Frampton undercard
Tyson Fury's younger brother, Tommy, seems to be gaining plenty of fans already after exciting footage emerged of him sparring with Ricky Hatton.
The light-heavyweight prospect is preparing for his professional debut on December 22 on the undercard of the Josh Warrington v Carl Frampton fight.
Blessed with the same elusive footwork and blistering hand speed as his big brother, Tommy has 12 amateur fights to his name and 11 wins.
His hulking frame is in complete contrast to his more languid brother but, if his latest training footage is anything to go by, the Fury family could have another exciting prodigy on their hands.
Working with former welterweight world champion Ricky Hatton, the bruiser showed off his incredible movement and power on the pads.
And, quite rightly, fans were getting seriously excited.
Former world champ Tyson, who is preparing to fight Deontay Wilder, said: “He’s going to do his own thing. I’m a big believer that if you’re good enough you will do it yourself, you don’t need anyone else.
“He can’t just jump in and be like a world champion’s brother, he has to earn his own stripes like I did.
“He’s only a young lad, he’s had 12 amateur fights and won 11 but no professional fights.
“Is he as good as me? A lineal world heavyweight champion? The answer would be no.
