Boxing legend Mike Tyson gave an interesting and slightly confused response to Tommy Fury’s split from Molly-Mae Hague.

The engaged TV couple announced last week that they had separated after five years together.

The 25-year-olds met on the 2019 series of Love Island and welcomed their daughter Bambi early last year.

Social media influencer Hague said she ‘never imagined our story would end’ in an emotional statement, while boxing prospect Fury said he was ‘heartbroken’ by the split.

The separation was the talk of the town on social media but the news clearly didn’t filter through to Tyson, who thought he was being asked about a narcotic drug when ‘Molly’ came up in conversation and then confused Tommy Fury for his brother Tyson.

The 58-year-old’s response prompted laughs from Impaulsive podcast hosts Logan Paul and Mike Majlak, who tried to clear up the confusion before turning their attentions to the legendary boxer’s upcoming fight with Logan’s brother Jake.

Majlak: ‘What do you think about the Fury-Molly-Mae break-up… it’s been big news.’

Tyson: ‘Tell me about that. What happened? Molly? Molly the narcotic?’

Majlak: ‘This is one of the most beloved couples in the world, especially in the UK. It’s a very sad moment for the internet and for love as a whole to see these two split… what do you have to say?’

Tyson: ‘Listen, no one knows the pain of the heavyweight champion when he’s alone. I saw him [Tyson Fury] falling down on the street, we beat ourselves up, we torment ourselves.’

Majlak: ‘It’s actually his brother, his little brother, Tommy Fury. The one that fought Jake Paul.’

Tyson: ‘Oh, what’s Tommy doing?’

Paul: ‘He broke up with Molly.’

Tyson: ‘Who the f*** is Molly? I’ve thinking about getting high.’

Majlak: ‘He thought we meant Tyson Fury was doing molly…’

Tyson: ‘I’m in the drug phase, I’m in the drug phase of my life and these guys are talking about molly. What the f*** is Molly? Who’s Molly?

Paul: ‘They met on Love Island! They were together for five years, they had a kid.’

Tyson: ‘Are you serious man, stop f***ing with me man!’

Paul: ‘We’re not! It’s sad, it’s all very sad.’

In her statement announcing the split, Hague said: ‘Never in a million years did I think I’d ever have to write this.

‘After five years of being together I never imagined our story would end, especially not this way.

‘I will forever be grateful for the most important thing to me now and always, my beautiful daughter.

‘Without us there would be no her, she will always be my priority. I want to thank you all for the love you have shown us over the last five years.

‘You have all been a part of our journey and I feel it’s right to share this with you all.’

Tyson, 58, was due to fight YouTuber-turned-boxer Paul last month but illness forced the bout to be rescheduled for November 15.

‘I had a small adversity. I got sick, but I feel good. I’m just ready,’ Tyson said at a joint news conference on Sunday.

‘He [Paul] may have been in the ring with people who have the same intentions, but the actuality, no.

‘As soon as I catch this guy it’s going to be totally over, he is going to run. He is going to run like a thief.’

The fight, Tyson’s first since 20025, will be held at the 80,000 capacity AT&T Stadium in Texas.

Asked why he wants to return to the ring and fight Paul, Tyson added: ‘Because I can.

‘Who else can do it but me? We have a YouTuber fighting the greatest fighter ever to live.’

Paul boasts a 10-1 record ahead of his fight with American great Tyson, suffering his sole defeat in February 2023 when he lost to Tommy Fury.

‘I love Mike and I respect him but we are not friends any more until 15 November,’ Paul said.
