Molly-Mae Hague's sister has revealed how the new mum really watched Tommy Fury's grudge match with Jake Paul - and it appears she may have not watched it at all. During the Manchester boxer's previous bouts in the ring, the influencer has been ringside cheering on her man.
However, following the birth of their first child together just four weeks ago, Molly-Mae, 23, stayed at home while Tommy, also 23, headed to Saudi Araba. The half-brother of heavyweight champion Tyson Fury left his partner and their newborn daughter, Bambi, a couple of weeks ago to prepare for the much-anticipated fight.
And on Sunday night (February 26), the time finally came for Tommy to face YouTube sensation-turned-MMA fighter Paul, 26, after two years of negotiations and verbal sparring. The pair were due to face each other back in 2021 but Tommy pulled out after suffering a bacterial chest infection and a broken rib.

Another scheduled fight in August was then pulled but ahead of Molly-Mae giving birth to their first child, it was announced that the pair would finally go head-to-head this month. And Tommy defeated Jake by split decision after eight rounds. The long-standing feud finally came to a conclusion at Diriyah Arena and Tommy took a standing count for a knockdown in the final round – with the British fighter claiming to have slipped – but had earlier done enough to earn a split decision on the judges' cards.
