Tommy Fury confirms brother Tyson WILL be in Saudi Arabia for Jake Paul fight in huge boost to Love Island star
TOMMY FURY has confirmed brother Tyson WILL be in his corner in Saudi Arabia against Jake Paul.
Tommy is set to at last meet Paul in the ring after they once again rescheduled their grudge match, this time for February 26.
Brother Tyson's attendance was in question with the Gypsy King in training for his undisputed super fight with Oleksandr Usyk.
But Tommy, 23, has revealed Tyson will be among those in his travelling entourage to the Middle East in a huge fight boost.
He told SunSport: “Everybody’s going to be out in Saudi. We’re coming with everybody.
“Tyson’s going to be there, all my brothers, everyone you’re used to seeing on fight night on the cameras on TV, they’ll all be there with me in Saudi Arabia.

“We’re all here, we’re all as one team and we’re ready to get the job done.”
Tommy has had a front row seat to watch Tyson reach the pinnacle of the sport.
It leaves him with an encyclopaedic knowledge of boxing to turn to whenever he is in need.
Tommy said: “It’s absolutely amazing, I can’t say anything but.

“To have the heavyweight champion of the world - and in my opinion the best fighter ever - it’s amazing. What more can I say about it?
“Whatever problem I have in this game I can always go to him. He’s always going to be there, he’s always going to be there right with me.”
Tyson has headlined in some of boxing's biggest fights of late, both Stateside and in the UK.
But it is now the turn of younger sibling Tommy, who gets his first pay-per-view taste against YouTuber-turned prizefighter Paul.
Both Tyson and dad John warned he can vacate their famous fighting surname and pack it in if he loses to Paul, 26.
But Tommy responded: “I think we all know Tyson by now - and my dad - we all know how to sell pay-per-views, we all know how to hype a fight.
“I think that’s all that is really. My dad and Tyson both know what’s going to happen in this fight, Tyson’s been there ever since I started boxing, so has my dad.
“They know what I’m capable of, they know what my opponent is capable of and it’s going to be quite an easy night’s work.”
