The Brit revealed what happened to him in public following the announcement

He subsequently received a barrage of abuse on social media, with some people accusing him of being a “fake” fighter.
In his new memoir released this week, Fury opened up about what his life was like following the postponement.
He wrote: “My whole world felt apart. I was this kid from Salford with no money and a big dream.
“I may have done well financially after Love Island, but the fee I would have earned from this fight was something else.”
Fury added: “I didn’t think it could get much worse, but once the news of the fight cancellation hit the press, everything kicked off.
“I received a torrent of online abuse, my accusers saying I was ‘scared of a YouTuber,’ ‘not a Fury’, ‘a fake fighter’, ’embarrassing my family’, and much worse.”
The Love Island star went on to reveal that he limited his time on social media and was reluctant to leave the house in the wake of the drama.
He continued: “I came off social media and I rarely went out in public because I would get heckled in the street.

“When I did leave the house, all those things were said in person, to my face.
“I’m not sure how people would have the audacity to do this, but they do. While it was a red rag to a bull, there was nothing I could do about it.”
Fury and Paul finally went toe-to-toe in February 2023.
The Brit won the fight by split-decision in Saudi Arabia.
Fury conducted his first TV interview today since splitting with Molly-Mae Hague.
The shamed boxer and Molly-Mae split in August after five years together, and share a daughter.
Influencer Molly-Mae dumped her fiancé hours after he returned home from a holiday to North Macedonia where he met a Danish woman on his lads’ holiday.
Tommy today appeared on ITV show This Morning to discuss his new book, Lightening Strikes Twice, and was faced with the accusations he had been unfaithful to his Love Island star ex.
He also left presenter Cat Deeley stunned when he showed her the size of his fists.
