Tommy Fury claims he'll break every bone in Jake Paul's face; says trash talking has limits

Tommy Fury is undoubtedly under quite a bit of pressure as he gears up to take on Jake Paul. Fury is the more experienced of the two and comes from a family of boxers. Fury is also expected to change his last name to 'Fumbles' if he comes out on the losing side as part of a wager with Jake Paul.

However, 'TNT' remains confident that he will come out on top. In a recent interview, Tommy Fury mentioned his plans for the fight against Paul.

Speaking to Sky Sports Boxing, Tommy Fury stated that the Paul brothers (Logan and Jake Paul) will be punished for their words and for dragging Fury's family, including his fiancee, into the verbal altercations. He said:

"I'm a professional athlete, something that these boys [Paul brothers] ain't. These boys play games and run their mouth for a living, I train and fight hard for a living. I'm a professional... For every bad thing they've said, they're going to get a swift right hand for it. I'll break every single bone in his face, because you don't bring people's loved ones and [wives] into it."
