While Tommy was on Love Island, he met Molly-Mae Hague who he is now engaged to and has a daughter called Bambi. Molly-Mae posted to Instagram before the fight saying “Let’s go baby!!!”.
Speaking to DAZN after the fight, Tommy said he is “changing my family’s life, fight by fight, I am changing my little daughter’s life”. “I said from day one, there will never be another Tyson Fury, I’m just trying to be the best Tommy Fury I can be.” After the fight, KSI called the decision a “robbery” and was visibly angry with the decision. “I understand, I’m the YouTuber and you’re the boxer, you have to win, I understand.” The pair exchanged words after the judge’s decision before Tommy left the ring.
