Despite coming up short, Fury opined that Dubois did his best and defended the Brit against 'jealous dream killers' who try to pull people down.
British boxer Tyson Fury backed Daniel Dubois, who went down to Oleksandr Usyk in the fifth round of the bout between the two, after he came under harsh criticism following the defeat.
Despite coming up short, Fury opined that Dubois did his best and defended the Brit against 'jealous dream killers' who try to pull people down.
'Hi guys, quick one I keep getting asked about this Dubois stuff and quitting," Fury began.
'He got put down twice? What do you want him to do, die in the ring?"
'There's no first place for betting battered to f**k and still losing. The lad did his best, he wasn't going to win, he was better of getting out of there," he continued.
'There is a lot of jealousy in boxing. Especially when individuals making a lot of money. A lot of jealous fighters."
'There are now cowards in boxing. So all the credit goes to Daniel. He worked his b****ks off since the age of 8," the 36-year-old said.
'Now he's sitting at home as a multi-millionaire. Daniel if you ever get to see this, chin up son. Everybody is proud of you."
Fury called for Dubois to hold his head up high and hit out at people who criticised the British boxer for supposedly throwing in the towel.
'You've gone from a kid to a man to being the world heavyweight champion and boxing in front of 100,000 at Wembley," Fury said.
'If you ever want to do any training, come to Morecambe any time you want kid. There is no jealousy here."
'There's no putting people down here, they are dirty jealous w****rs. I call them dream crushers," the pugilist added.
Fury also revealed that he would like to see a matchup between Ukraininan Usyk and 20-year-old British boxer Moses Itauma.
'I want to see Usyk against Itauma. This is the fight," Fury added.
