Tyson Fury has lost an eye-watering £100k bet after his brother Tommy beat bitter rival Jake Paul but failed to knock out the American in his highly anticipated fight on Sunday night
Tyson Fury has sensationally lost a £100,000 bet after his brother Tommy Fury beat Jake Paul on Sunday night, but failed to stop his opponent.
Ahead of the nail biting grudge match, WBC champion Tyson revealed that he had bet a whopping £100,000 on his brother stopping Jake inside the distance, placing an increasing amount of pressure on Tommy’s shoulders ahead of the fight. The initial value of the bet was reportedly around $1 million dollars, but the amount soon collapsed following the delay of the fight.
"I've got 100 racks on it for an inside the distance stoppage, so if he loses, then I'll lose 100 bags as well. I've got him at 3-1. I know Tommy is going to knock him out. What is a little bit stupid is I see all these experts and professional boxers picking Jake Paul over Tommy. I'm like, 'What the hell are these guys watching?’.
Initially, Tommy had dominated large parts of the fight, leading many fans to think it would be a clear cut win, however the star was soon dropped in the final round - something which could easily have proven disastrous for Tommy.
