In his post-fight in-ring interview, Fury spoke about his victory and shared that he no longer wanted to be a part of the celebrity boxing world and wanted to go back to a traditional approach for his boxing career. But in the end, 'TNT' did leave the door open for a fight against any one of the Paul brothers.

"He [KSI] goes his way, I go mine. I'm done with all this crossover s**t. I'm not a part of that. I'm here to fight and we go into the next challenge now... I'm done with the bulls**t. F**k the bulls**t onto that challenge. Any of the [Paul brothers] want it, I'd welcome with open arms. Let's get [it] on," said Tommy Fury.
