Tommy Fury has vowed to knock YouTuber-turned-boxer Jake Paul out in two rounds when the pair square off next month.
Fury, 22, made the claim after working out with newly-minted trainer and half-brother Tyson, who knocked Deontay Wilder out last month in Las Vegas to retain his WBC heavyweight title.
"The run this morning was good. Good leg work. Feeling good, feeling fit. Trainer T doing the best job," Tommy said of Tyson in a video post on Twitter.
"What's happening to Jake Paul?" Tyson asked.
"He's getting knocked the spark out. Two rounds," Tommy replied.
"Jake Paul, we're coming for you," Tyson said.
"Be ready," added Tommy.
Tommy Fury won on the undercard of Paul's August fight against former UFC welterweight champion Tyron Woodley, which Paul won on points.
Tommy comes from a long line of boxers but has also looked to grow his celebrity outside the sport and appeared on the British reality show Love Island in 2019.
He boasts a professional record of seven wins from as many fights with four knockouts while Paul is unbeaten in four contests.
Paul said he expects to stop Fury inside eight rounds when they meet in Tampa on December 18, but said it is hard to know what to expect against a fighter that has such a limited resume.
"Tommy Fury hasn't been tested, so we will see how he responds," Paul said at a press conference over the weekend.
"Is he actually a Fury, or will we find out that he's just a half Fury? Does he have the heart like his brother, or is he just living in the shadow of his brother?"

Children who witnessed blood bath want to help others
Aged just 11, Khulood Al Najjar’s daughter, Nora, bravely attempted to fight off Philip Spence. Her finger was injured when she put her hand in between the claw hammer and her mother’s head.
As a vital witness, she was forced to relive the ordeal by police who needed to identify the attacker and ensure he was found guilty.
Now aged 16, Nora has decided she wants to dedicate her career to helping other victims of crime.
“It was very horrible for her. She saw her mum, dying, just next to her eyes. But now she just wants to go forward,” said Khulood, speaking about how her eldest daughter was dealing with the trauma of the incident five years ago. “She is saying, 'mama, I want to be a lawyer, I want to help people achieve justice'.”
Khulood’s youngest daughter, Fatima, was seven at the time of the attack and attempted to help paramedics responding to the incident.
“Now she wants to be a maxillofacial doctor,” Khulood said. “She said to me ‘it is because a maxillofacial doctor returned your face, mama’. Now she wants to help people see themselves in the mirror again.”
Khulood’s son, Saeed, was nine in 2014 and slept through the attack. While he did not witness the trauma, this made it more difficult for him to understand what had happened. He has ambitions to become an engineer.

Labour dispute
The insured employee may still file an ILOE claim even if a labour dispute is ongoing post termination, but the insurer may suspend or reject payment, until the courts resolve the dispute, especially if the reason for termination is contested. The outcome of the labour court proceedings can directly affect eligibility.
