Tommy Fury‘s father John told him not to see Molly-Mae Hague or their daugther Bambi on Christmas Day.
In scenes from his three-part show Tommy Fury: The Good, The Bad and The Fury, the boxer opened up about his split from Molly-Mae, who he has since got back together with, along with his training before a fight in Budapest.
Tommy’s father John, a former boxer, told his son he should skip Christmas with Bambi in order to focus on his training before the match.
‘If you can’t sacrifice six weeks of your time without your children and all that s**t in the world outside, what we doing here?’ John asked.
‘I can’t see on Christmas Day picking the baby up saying Merry Christmas,’ Tommy replied. ‘I can’t see that’s going to lead me to win a fight or not. You’ve got to be happy.’

John refused to budge, saying: ‘You’re not doing that this time. You’re not – I don’t care if you’re happy or not. Listen – no.’
Speaking to the camera after their disagreement, Tommy said: ‘My dad doesn’t understand the modern world and obviously he’s just an old school fella. Even I find it hard to live in the world today, some of the bulls**t going on.[‘
John warned Tommy if he lost the fight after seeing Molly-Mae and Bambi, he would end up ‘resenting’ them.
‘You come back, you have your Christmas, you hold the baby. All of a sudden you get a nell on your record for that.
‘You’ll never look them in the same light again. Family or not family. You’ll resent them,’ he said.
Tommy argued ’20 minutes out of the day’ wouldn’t be a big deal but John insisted: ‘The greats don’t do it. Leave it.’
The boxer was all smiles as he attended the screening of Tommy: The Good. The Bad. The Fury, in Manchester on Tuesday.
He was supported by father John and mother Chantal as well as brother Roman as they posed for sweet family snaps at the event at The Printworks.

Notably, Molly-Mae was missing from the event amid Tommy’s vow to keep their relationship private following their recent reconciliation.
Staying true to his word, Tommy happily posed for a number of fun solo snaps as he promoted his show at the screening.
Despite putting on a loved-up display in recent Instagram posts, Molly-Mae chose not to attend Tommy’s big event.
Elsewhere in the documentary, Tommy revealed what it’s really like co-parenting Bambi with Molly-Mae.
The Love Island stars shocked fans when they announced their split last August, after welcoming daughter Bambi and getting engaged the year prior – though they have since rekindled their romance.
The boxer revealed how it caused him to neglect his responsibilities as a father and partner and ultimately causing his relationship to fall apart.

And in scenes from when he and Molly-Mae were separated while he was looking after Bambi, Tommy opened up about what has made it ‘tricky’ to co-parent the toddler in the wake of their split.
‘Obviously it’s tricky because Molly’s at her house and I’m here at the minute,’ Tommy said as he was seen helping Bambi get ready and tucking her into bed.
‘When Bambi’s here, it’s all me, and when she’s there, it’s all her, so it is tricky. I’m wrapped around her little finger ten times so I’ll literally do anything for her.
‘But at least with Molly she knows she can’t get away with it… but with me, she definitely can. She can get away with murder.’
