Tommy Fury brushes aside talk of Logan Paul or KSI rematch
Watch Fury vs Hanjalic - Friday live on DAZN
Tommy Fury has dismissed suggestions he could face Jake Paul or KSI again, insisting: “I’ve made my money out of them.”
The Mancunian cruiserweight, 26, will take on Bosnian Kenan Hanjalic in Budapest on Friday night, live on DAZN.
He has not fought since beating YouTuber KSI – real name Olajide William Olatunji – in a boxing match in October 2023.
Fury’s previous fight was a victory over Paul in Saudi Arabia in February 2023.
He insists he has no desire to face either fighter again – although did not rule it out entirely.
Misfits Boxing
“To be honest with you, I'm not that interested,” Fury said in an exclusive interview with DAZN.
“I beat them both and there is no real motivation.
“I'm not in boxing to fight them again.
“I'm not really interested in them and have already had my money out of both of them.
“I've already beaten both of them so I'm not really bothered.
“I'm in boxing because I want to box and I'm here because I want to be here.
“At the end of the day they can do whatever they want to do and if they want to fight, they know where I am.
“If they want to talk sensibly, they known where I am and that's the most important thing.
“But forget them for the time being – it's all about Friday night [against Hanjalic].
“We want to get another win, keep the journey going and God willing, get some big fights later on in the year.”
Fury knows that victory over Hanjalic is non-negotiable on his return to the ring.
Months on from a collapsed bout with Darren Till, the star will look to get his career back up and running away from home soil against a new opponent.
“I'm not overlooking this fight on Friday night,” insisted Fury.
“This is the most important fight of my life and it's important for me to get through that.
“Anything else we can address after that, but right now my full attention is on Friday night.”
Fighting in Budapest may not have the glitz and glamour of his previous fights, but that does not faze Fury in the slightest.
“It's all about keeping your emotions in check,” he said.
“I've walked out in front of a much bigger crowd and a much bigger audience in my last fight against KSI.
“That was a sold-out AO Arena with close to 30,000 in there and Jake Paul in Saudi, so they were massive events.
“I feel like I'm not going to be fazed by that.”
