It led to a bust-up between the opposing teams which was captured on film and shared on social media.
Fury, 22, describing the situation, said: “I was doing an interview down there, and his whole team landed, Jake Paul squaring up to me…
“But then he’s seen me at ringside, I was leaning over the ropes, waiting to get in there, here was Logan, ‘No, no, not right now’.
“They ain’t fighters.”
