If I use my right hand he might not show up' - Tommy Fury shows off insane jab power on punch mac
Tommy Fury has shown off his insane power before his fight with Jake Paul.
The undefeated boxing prospects will finally clash on Sunday, February 26 in Saudi Arabia following a two-year rivalry that has intensified due to fight dates repeatedly falling through.
Tyson Fury’s younger brother didn’t want to jeopardise the clash in any way, so when he was asked to show off his power on a punch machine, he only used his jab.
Tommy told Kick Game: “You know what I’m going to do? I’m going to use my jab because I don’t want to scare him [Jake Paul] off too much. I have a feeling if I use my right hand he might not show up."
The Love Island star impressively scored 841 with his jab and sent a picture of Paul that was attached to the machine tumbling to the floor before offering a fight prediction.
"And that’s what would happen in the ring. That is with the jab. If I threw the right hand, he wouldn’t be showing up,” Fury said as he pointed to the picture of his rival that had been dislodged by his epic left hand.
The 23-year-old has picked up eight consecutive wins against low-level opposition since beginning his professional career following a lifetime as part of one of boxing’s most famous families.
However, he is the underdog against Paul who has impressed during his perfect six-fight career despite the fact he’s fought no-one with a background in the sport.

‘The Problem Child’ has picked up wins over fellow YouTuber AnEsonGib, NBA player Nate Robinson and MMA fighters Ben Askren, Tyron Woodley (x2) and Anderson Silva.
Paul appears to have the power advantage heading into the highly anticipated grudge match after scoring multiple highlight-reel knockout wins.
But Fury is not concerned about taking one of his 26-year-old opponent's power shots and he made that much clear during a recent appearance on talkSPORT Drive.
He told Andy Goldstein: “If he caught me, I’d probably just laugh, to be honest.
“Because I’ve been used to being hit by heavyweights and Olympic gold medallists, world champions and whatever, so Jake Paul – a little kid from Disney – what’s he going to do?
“I’ll let him hit me, I’m not interested, I’ll put my hands up and let him tee off at me like a five-year-old is hitting me."
