“Tommy Fury is the guy that fought Jake Paul and KSI … He struggled (but) he won. Tommy Fury’s limited and found his level with YouTubers who can’t fight, and he’s said he’s gonna try and be a professional boxer, so he’s gonna fight 54-year-old Roy Jones Jr?”, said Froch.
He continued: “Don’t even hit Roy Jones Jr. He’s a legend of the game. He obviously wants the attention or wants a bit of extra money, but for Tommy to fight Roy Jones Jr, it’s just wrong. I don’t want to see it. I think it’s a load of cr*p. It’s got no interest. It proves nothing.
And if it’s gonna go down the road of becoming a professional boxer, he needs to start from the bottom and work his way up. Try and win a British title in the light-heavyweight division and face real professional fighters. If he fights anybody at even British level right now he’s getting beat.”
