Fans roast Tommy Fury for 'trying to be like his dad' after cage footage emerges with KSI

Fans have called out Tommy Fury for trying to be like his dad, John Fury, after footage emerged of him inside the cage with KSI.

After months of back and forth, Fury and KSI will finally settle their differences in the ring on Saturday night at the AO Arena in Manchester.

During a chaotic press conference on Thursday, which saw Logan Paul struck by Dillon Danis on the head with a microphone the day before, both Fury and KSI entered a cage and were separated by a simple plastic screen.

After some choice words were exchanged between the pair, Fury started beating the plastic screen in similar manner to his father, who also got inside the cage and repeatedly punched the screen, even giving it it a headbutt.

You can watch the footage below.

After shouting: "You're s**t" at his opponent, Fury started slamming his palms against the screen, inciting KSI to kick it back in retaliation, before bellowing out: "Let's f***ing go!"

"Keep going, give me all you've got," KSI added. It won't matter motherf***er because when I enter that ring and see you, you will feel me and you will f***ing collapse."

Fans have slammed Tommy for attempting to replicate his dad's behaviour in the cage, with one person tweeting: "Tried to do a John Fury and ended up getting pushed back through the glass. Bros getting dropped."

"Tommy tried to do a John Fury," another added.

On Wednesday, KSI and Fury's father were involved in another heated incident during the open workout.

After John threw an object towards KSI, the YouTuber-turned-boxer appeared to spit towards the 59-year-old.

When asked about the incident, Tommy slammed KSI: “These YouTubers have got loads of kids that look up to them, admire them, and think they're role models. Yet you've got KSI spitting at a man who's twice his age.

“You should respect your elders, but it shows how the world's going when kids are looking up to people like that, spitting over a balcony.”

He continued: “If that had landed on his forehead, everyone would have been going down until my dad got to KSI, no-one could stop him, he'd had hit everyone in his path, that would have been awful. He has no class, no professionalism, it's a scruffy thing to do.

“That shows what his mental state is, he's mentally gone. I think I've really got into his head because most of his opponents go back and forth and play to his games but silence is golden and that's all he's had out of me all camp, and it's confused him.

"He can't get my name out of his mouth, he keeps talking but I haven't played to his game and his a*** is going. He's only got three days and he's in for it.”
