his son Tommy&#8217;s fight with KSI this weekend.<\/p>\n<p>The trash talking between KSI and Tommy will finally stop on Saturday night when they face each other at Manchester&#8217;s AO Arena.<\/p>\n<p>There are still three days to go until the highly-anticipated bout, but John appears ready for fight night already, and he nearly got into a scrap himself with Jake and Logan&#8217;s dad Greg, who was in attendance ahead of Logan&#8217;s clash with Dillon Danis on the undercard.<\/p>\n<p>After Wednesday&#8217;s open workouts had been completed, John took centre stage and began to shout &#8216;I&#8217;ll wipe the floor with all of you&#8217; into a large group of people.<\/p>\n<p>Greg seemed to take John&#8217;s words as a direct challenge and could be heard responding: &#8216;Come on John, let&#8217;s go!&#8217;<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\"

aggressively approached Greg Paul<\/p>\n<p>John was in no mood to back down, replying &#8216;If you think you can take it, Greg Paul, hey, I&#8217;ll let you hit me first!&#8217;<\/p>\n<p>Greg hit back with a crude comment that proved the final straw for Fury Snr who started to approach Greg aggressively, forcing security to step in.<\/p>\n<p>John was urged to &#8216;calm down&#8217; by heavyweight contender Derek Chisora, but he appeared reluctant to listen as he vowed to &#8216;tear his f*****g head off&#8217;.<\/p>\n<p>John&#8217;s outburst came just moments after he was involved in another altercation with KSI.<\/p>\n<p>He had sat down for an interview with his son Tommy following his open workout, but they were interrupted by KSI goading the pair from an overlooking balcony.<\/p>\n<p>With KSI refusing to keep quiet, John launched a bottle in his direction, forcing the YouTuber-turned-boxer to duck for cover.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\"

proceeded to spit in John&#8217;s direction from the balcony, although he missed his intended target.<\/p>\n<p>The pair then exchanged words before John finally walked away, and turned his attention to Greg Paul.<\/p>\n<p>John was also heavily involved at the first press conference for Tommy&#8217;s fight with KSI, as he flipped and smashed tables, causing the event to be brought to an abrupt end.<\/p>\n<p>With another press conference set for Thursday and Friday&#8217;s weigh-in still to come before Saturday&#8217;s fight, it would not be a major surprise to see him take the spotlight once more in the coming days.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Source: <a
