New footage shows moment ‘coward’ Tommy Fury’s brawl with fellow Love Islander Idris Virgo kicks off at KSI fight
NEW footage has emerged showing the start of Tommy Fury’s brawl with fellow Love Island star and boxer Idris Virgo at KSI’s fight with Joe Fournier.
Fury, 24, got into the ring and squared up to KSI following the YouTuber’s controversial second-round KO win over Fournier – which appeared to be the result of an illegal elbow.

But it was Virgo, 25, who grabbed the attention of Fury earlier on in the evening at Wembley Arena.
And the latest clip to have been shared on social media shows the moment Virgo confronted Fury – before the brother of world heavyweight champion Tyson stood up and ignited a scrap with the 12-0-1 fighter.
Virgo posted the video on social media, saying: “Tommy Fury is a coward.”
He also added the caption: “KSI, when you’re done with Tommy Fury, let me know.”
Virgo fought on KSI’s undercard in January, beating Anthony Taylor.
Ever since Fury came out of the Love Island villa in 2019, he has been called out by Virgo.
But he was busy feuding with YouTuber-turned boxer Jake Paul.
It culminated in a massive grudge match in Saudi Arabia, which Fury won by split decision.

As a result, KSI has now set his sights on Fury.
Fury travelled to London for KSI’s fight on Saturday evening and before brawling with Virgo, it was revealed negotiations to fight the YouTube sensation are progressing.
His dad John said: “We’re talking to his people, they are talking to me, we’re close.”
Fury has claimed KSI will be an easy night’s work.
He said: “In my opinion out of all this influencer boxing stuff, I beat the top of the tree.
“Jake Paul’s the best out of all of these, so all this now is easy money baby.”
