VIDEO: Tommy Fury & Idris Virgo Involved In Scuffle During KSI Event
Tommy Fury attended the Misfits X DAZN X Series 007 event and ended up getting into a fracas with Idris Virgo.
Fury was joined by his father, John, in the crowd to witness the social media boxing card. While he was watching his former foe Anthony Taylor take on Salt Papi, he got heated with Idris Virgo for reasons that have not been revealed at this time. The two were involved in a scuffle and had to be separated.

Back in January, Virgo told IFL TV that he no longer had Fury in his sights. He claimed that Fury wouldn't accept the fight, and he said his attention was now on getting a fight with Slim.
Just minutes before the brawl, Tommy Fury was interviewed on stage. He insisted he didn't attend the event to scout potential opponents. He did, however, express interest in fighting KSI if the money is right. During the interview, Fury said he believes Jake Paul, who he defeated earlier this year, is the best influencer boxer that he could've faced.
Now that Virgo has Fury's attention, it'll be interesting to see if Misfits Boxing or perhaps another promotion can book this fight in the future.
