Tommy Fury has revealed x-ray scans of the broken rib he sustained during sparring which has forced his dramatic withdrawal from next week's grudge fight against Jake Paul

Fury, the 22-year-old half-brother of world heavyweight champion Tyson, was set to fight YouTuber-turn boxer Paul in Florida on December 18 but he pulled out yesterday.

Despite taunting by Paul, Fury explained in a video on Instagram that he contracted a bacterial chest infection before ploughing on in training and sustaining 'multiple fractures' of the rib in sparring - with his doctors and team affirming he had to withdraw from the fight.

Fury begins: 'Training camp couldn't have gone any better for me for the first week or two but then I contracted a bacterial chest infection which led me to go to the gym and not being able to breathe.

'My sparring sessions, pad work sessions , whatever it may be I wasn't able to breathe and I was coughing up huge amounts of phlegm all the time.

'It led me to sleepless nights and that went on for four weeks. I had the mind-set of, 'I'm going to train, I'm going to get through this, I'm going to fight no matter what.
