At Home with the Furys (2023) s01e09 Episode Script

1
What did he say to you about the weight?
I said, "It'll be a dynamite win.
You'll feel dynamite on that chin."
He said,
"You missed weight, you're heavy."
That's just
the bullshit that comes with this job.
All you gotta do is just stay focused,
stay composed.
Yeah.
Do what we've been practicing.
Let them deal with the bullshit.
We do our job in here.
And our job is train,
get in the ring and win.
We're just gotta sit tight
and see what happens.
End of the day,
you've done what you had to to.
What was stipulated in your contract,
you've done and more.
We're here to fight.
That's it, it's what we do.
Yeah.
I'm in Dubai. I'm dead at the weight.
I've got no fat on me.
Absolutely starving.
Don't know whether to eat or not.
Don't know what to do. I'm in limbo mode.
Tyson's sent me a nice message.
"How's it going?
Hope you're all good, ready for tonight."
"Sending you some positive vibes."
He thinks I'm fighting tonight.
-Keep him updated.
-[Molly-Mae laughs]
I'll FaceTime him now.
Keep him updated.
[Tommy] Hello.
[Tyson] How are you getting on?
I'm all right, but we've had
a bit of drama at the weigh-in.
[Tyson] Go on.
He's saying
his contract said
he had to be at a certain weight,
which was 12 stone 7, 175.
-And mine had to be 12 stone 12.
-Yeah.
-But I weighed in at 12 stone 9.
-Yeah.
He's arguing over two pounds,
saying he's not fighting.
Oh, this is not what you need, is it?
It's never easy though, is it?
There's always something going on.
[Tyson] Keep me updated
with what's going on.
-Will do.
-[Tyson] But don't worry.
As soon as I know I'll let you know.
All right then.
-See you in a bit. Bye-bye.
-Bye.
[Molly-Mae] The fight could be off.
Just waiting for that moment
and, as the partner,
you just have to stay quiet,
keep it together, look composed,
when actually I'm absolutely terrified.
Just be professional,
stick to what we're gonna do.
Wait for the call, yay or nay.
It is a huge fight.
Chief support to Floyd Mayweather.
The most high profile fight
I've had so far.
We all put on a front,
quite relaxed and calm,
but deep down inside,
we know it's all on the line.
[John] There's been
a big change of events,
Paul Bamba refused to fight
'cause he said his contract
stated something different to ours.
So in the eleventh hour,
we've had to sort some kind of bout out.
We picked a guy here.
He's probably
a stone and a half heavier than Tommy.
At the minute.
And he's some kind of a champion
with 15 and 1 record.
But that's where we're at.
It's not ideal. We know that.
But what can we do?
It is what it is.
We get a call.
We've got this guy. Rolly Lambert.
The savior. He's willing to step in.
But, because it was only a few hours away,
they couldn't sanction it.
So it got made into an exhibition.
He won a version of the world title
two weeks prior to obviously fighting me.
He obviously knows his craft.
Without him, them last two months
would have gone to waste.
Even though it's an exhibition,
you've got to be on your guard.
You've got to still do
what you're trained to do.
And that's hit, and not be hit.
If it wasn't an exhibition
there's no way we'd match Tommy with him
because he's too heavy
and he's too experienced
for where Tommy's at in his career.
Exhibition or not,
you're still taking punches to the face
and Molly being new to boxing,
she doesn't really
understand the difference.
To her, I'm still
getting punched in the face,
so just as hard on her
as it would be in a real fight.
An exhibition is,
there's no decision at the end of it,
there's no winners and no losers,
but they can be pretty dangerous.
Things can get out of turn and they do.
It starts off okay,
but at round three,
it's like a real fight.
No one wants to look bad, do they?
I am feeling
like I could just throw up in that toilet,
but I'm also feeling
that in literally less than an hour,
this will all be over
and then we can relax.
Honestly, until then,
I just feel horrendous.
This is the worst part for me
and also sat ringside,
but I probably won't actually watch.
It's just the worst feeling in the world.
[John] Lord, let no injuries occur.
Serious injuries.
It's a sport at the end of the day
and let both boys go out
and have fun and entertain the crowd.
In the name of Jesus, let both men be safe
and good luck to both.
-Amen.
-[all] Amen.
Go on, Tom.
-[John] Come on, Tom.
-[all clapping]
It's go time.
Can't hide anymore. Let's do this.
Ah. Pray for me. [chuckles nervously]
[coach] Coming through please, thank you.
Thank you, sir.
Throughout the whole training camp.
This is what I've dreamt of. Fight night.
You just need to focus on yourself,
get yourself in the right headspace
and go out there and do it.
[announcer] Ladies and gentlemen, here is
-Tommy "TNT" Fury!
-[audience cheering]
[Tommy] You've gotta enjoy
every fight like it's your last,
because it could well be.
[announcer 2]
Rolly Lambert versus Tommy Fury.
I'm here with Jake Paul. Round one.
[audience cheering]
Tommy comes in, catches a left hand
for his troubles there.
It's Rolly coming forward,
landing some shots there.
The feeling when your partner
is in the ring is indescribable.
[announcer 2]
Tommy throws a four punch combo.
I'm terrified and worried for him.
I really struggle with it.
I take my hat off to women like Paris
that can sit there,
be composed
and watch their partner in the ring.
But for me,
I literally look at the ground,
I just can't watch.
He thinks he's his brother.
He's an Instagram model.
[John] When they got Jake Paul
to do the commentary,
I couldn't understand why because
there will always be negativity
because Tommy
and Jake Paul have never got on.
[Jake Paul] You suck.
-Well, there's a
-You suck.
[announcer 2] Apologies for the language.
[Jake Paul] You are a amateur.
This is embarrassing.
Jake Paul was commentating
and hurling abuse as I was fighting.
[Jake Paul] I will beat this guy's ass
so quickly, it is unbelievable.
A good few years now,
we've been going back and forth,
and it's a fight that's inevitable.
[bell dings]
[announcer 2] That is the end
of our six-round exhibition.
[John] I learned one thing about Tommy.
He can hold his own with the best of them
because Rolly Lambert, he was 15 and 1
and had been fighting in world class.
Tommy would have easily won on points.
[announcer 2] Jake, if you had one word
to describe what you watched there,
what could you say?
-[Jake Paul]
-[announcer 2] Okay.
[audience cheering]
My opponent pulled out
hours before this fight. Hours before.
And I had to come in
and fight this man, 15 and 1.
He's got WBC and WBA titles.
He's knocked out 12 and I had the bollocks
to get in this ring tonight
and fight him on a few hours' notice.
And I wanna say one thing,
there's a certain bitch at ringside
I want in this ring right now.
Bro, you are such a pussy. Come on.
-Come on. You. Get in. Get in.
-You suck
[John] Want to go next?
-[announcer 2] John talking to Jake.
-You wanna go next?
[John] You wanna get in with me?
John saying
do you want to get in there with him?
[John] You, in here with me!
You're a fat miserable old man.
[announcer 2] Easy. Hold on. Hold on.
John Fury, trying to get out of the ring
and get to Jake here.
Get up here!
[screams] Come in here!
[announcer 2] My goodness gracious,
this has unfolded terribly, folks.
After the fight, it all goes off.
My dad ripped his top off
like the Incredible Hulk.
I'm the king of bare knuckle, man!
[Molly-Mae] John's bare-chested,
bellowing at the top of his lungs.
Tommy's joining in.
[audience cheering]
Come on, pussy ass.
Come on, I'm right here.
[Molly-Mae] They're all
falling over the ropes,
and I'm just like,
"Get me out of here now."
This is my cue to leave
at seven months pregnant.
I've got this thing where I look
the same in me mind as I did 25 years ago.
But when I seen the replay, shocking.
I was embarrassed, you know.
That was me only [chuckles] regret.
I need more sit-ups
and more bench press. [laughs]
And less pies and ice cream.
[continues laughing]
[all clapping]
[indistinct chatter]
-[Molly-Mae] Well done, babe.
-Feel that lump on the back of my head.
Yeah, I can see it.
-Oh, my God.
-It's all right.
Hey, Dad.
[indistinct chatter]
I didn't watch any of it, I'll be honest.
My eyes were directly
at the ground the whole time.
It was actually more horrendous out there
than I thought it was going to be.
You think it's gonna be bad,
then you get out there
and the emotions
you feel are indescribable.
I honestly don't know how Paris does it.
I don't. It's too stressful.
I just want to go home to my cats.
It's just not for me.
[audience chattering]
[Tyson] Fight week is very important
in the boxing community.
All the training is done now
and we're just getting ready to rumble.
Come on, Derek. Get on with it, son.
This fight's a trilogy with Derek Chisora.
60,000 people are gonna be there.
It's what people wanna see
because it's two heavyweights
throwing down for the heavyweight
championship of the world.
[Tyson] We're getting it on
like Donkey Kong!
We're gonna stand
in the middle of the ring
and batter the fuck out of each other.
[reporter] You gave Chisora
his first loss.
You think
you could give him his last loss?
Yeah.
[audience cheering]
[announcer] We welcome into the ring,
the defending world champion
from Morecambe, England.
He is undefeated with 32 wins,
the reigning and defending
WBC heavyweight champion of the world,
the Gypsy King, Tyson Fury.
Back in camp,
I was feeling a little bit low,
but now I'm in fight week,
I'm ready to rock.
Public workout is a chance
to get in your opponent's head.
I always play to the crowd,
waving my arms around
and putting hands in the air,
just playing games really
because it has to be fun
and I think that's what separates me
from the rest of the pack.
I am so hungry.
This is what I've been after
for eight weeks.
That's still quite healthy as well.
Ah, I can't tell you.
It feels like a dream.
All I've had for the past two months
is a pot of porridge, like, this big.
[chuckles] I know, I've watched it.
I can't stop eating.
I'm gonna be 100 stone.
Get it down ya. [chuckles]
How are you actually feeling in yourself
after the fight?
It feels good, I know I did the job,
but I've got a lump
on the back of me head like a golf ball,
which it is hurting.
But just gotta grin and bear it.
The biggest thing
after a fight is the come down.
When you wake up the next morning,
it's just like, nothing.
The phone's nice and quiet.
No one's bothering. It's nice.
The nerves have gone.
I can actually enjoy my food this morning
without feeling like I'll vomit,
even though it's been hectic, stressful.
And I've nearly lost my mind a few times.
We're here now.
We can actually
have a little, little baby moon.
Oh, them hash browns.
The last eight weeks
have been really hard to juggle,
my pregnancy
and being the supportive partner
that Tommy needed me to be through camp
and now I can totally relax
and have it be a little bit about me,
which I feel like
I deserve through this pregnancy.
All week here,
everyone's been telling me to like,
keep out the sun, you know,
just stay inside,
-air-con rooms, everything like that.
-Enjoy it.
Yeah, it's nice, honestly.
You wait till the baby's here,
you'll be taking nothing for granted.
Honestly, I don't think
it's gonna be tough at all, really.
I don't think he has the first clue.
It's gonna be
a massive learning curve for him.
He has no idea what's around the corner.
To be honest,
we've got a lot to sort still.
-What, for the baby? Have a day off.
-For the baby.
We need to do some classes or something
'cause I just feel like you have
Love you, but you don't have a clue.
Like the other day, when I said
the baby will need
at least five outfit changes a day,
and you thought I was being vain,
wanting to put her in different clothes,
but it's just because
she's gonna absolutely poo herself.
You were like,
"We'll just leave her naked all day."
This is what I mean,
you have a lot to learn.
Tommy did say
that he would never ever change a nappy.
I think, day by day,
I've slowly started to get him
to come around to the idea
that he will have to change a nappy.
I need his help.
I've never done this before.
I don't know how to do anything.
I feel you're gonna
complicate it for yourself.
-I'm not. Know how to work a breast pump?
-Yes, I do.
[kids chattering]
I was talking to your dad today
and he said that he's gonna let youse
go to the fight, I think.
-[Venezuela] That's good.
-Yeah.
You're not old enough, my Tyson.
They won't let kids in the fight, me boy.
They'll only let people over 11.
You're 11?
I'm over it though.
I'm a couple of months over it.
[Paris] They're 11 and 13,
their dad's boxed all their life,
and they've never seen him in the ring.
They've seen dad go into camp,
they've lived in training camps
and with sparring partners.
So I think it's time to let them see
the end result of a massive boxing match.
Do you think
you'd be frightened watching it?
Solid no.
-Why?
-Because Dad's beat that man's ass twice
and he'll do it the third time.
I don't know. It's always nervous.
And you say that,
-but you never know what's gonna happen.
-I know.
You're all right then.
[Paris] Eat your dinners. Eat your dins.
-Hey.
-[Paris] Hello. It's Granny!
-[Adonis] Granny!
-Where's me babies?
-Hello.
-Wait. Hello.
What have you been up to?
-All sorts.
-Getting ready?
[Paris] I've organized me mum
to come up and watch the kids,
so I can take Venezuela
and Prince for the fight.
[Prince] See you on Sunday, Granny!
-[Paris] Love you, see you!
-[Lynda] He'll be fine in two minutes.
-Come on now.
-[whining]
[Prince] What's the plan?
We're going down to the hotel.
-Hotel. The weigh-in.
-And then, tomorrow
-Yeah, the weigh-in.
-Am I still walking out with me dad?
-To the ring?
-Yeah.
I think so. You'll walk out with your dad.
Me and Venezuela
will go and sit in the seats.
I sit at the front with Shane and Ewy
and we can't break the pattern.
So Venezuela,
you'll have to sit at the back of me.
Okay. Why can't I sit next to you?
We can't. We can't break the pattern.
Me, Ewy and Shane have sat together
at every fight your dad's ever had.
[crowd chattering]
I didn't expect
to be at one of these again.
I thought this would have been
all finished and done with.
But evidently Tyson has, um
He's here again. Back on the main stage.
Prince! No, you have
to stay close to me as well.
I'm glad the kids have got to come
and see all this and experience it all.
On the other hand,
it's easier when it's just me.
It's like taking your kids to Disneyland,
you've gotta keep eyes on 'em,
and that's how I feel in this crowd
and the hecticness going on.
[Paris] Prince, stay next to your dad.
Don't leave him.
Right, we're walking in.
[crowd cheering]
Prince! Are you walking with your dad?
Stay there, near your dad.
[announcer] The challenger,
from Finchley, London, England,
Derek "Del Boy" Chisora!
[Tommy] As a team, we're all track
suited up. We're super excited.
But we are anxious, nervous,
and that doesn't leave you until
the final bell rings and he's victorious.
260 pounds, 10 ounces
for the challenger, Derek Chisora.
And now we welcome the defending
world champion from Morecambe, England,
known as the Gypsy King,
Tyson Fury!
[crowd cheering]
Feels great
to be back on stage for a weigh-in.
There was a massive crowd waiting for me.
It was like a hero's welcome.
This is why I'm back,
there was none of this in retirement.
This is what makes me tick.
[cheering and applause]
[John] Come on, Tyson!
268 pounds and 10 ounces for Tyson Fury.
[Paris] Whoo!
Got his special keks on.
What do you reckon? Poor old Dad,
up there in his underpants.
I still find it strange
when you get two big, strong fighting men,
in their underpants seeing who can
stare at the another for the longest.
You just think, "Really?"
[Paris] Come on, Tyson!
He can stare them out the best.
Let's give it to 'em, Chisora.
Like I'm gonna give it you, son.
KO this time, boys.
[shouts] Come on!
Prince has got himself right up there.
He looks like he's up for a good fight.
And I'm ready for a good fight, meself.
Cannot wait.
Whether it's one round or twelve,
I'm ready. I'm ready for war!
When I get to the stadium at fight night,
I just feel nervous straight away.
And I just start thinking,
"The fight's soon."
There's gonna be a fight
and there's a dread in my stomach
and I don't enjoy it
from that point onwards.
It's just
a terrible feeling the whole time.
[man] Tyson, how are you, mate?
[John] The closer the fight gets,
it can get quite intense.
A lot of people,
when about to go in the ring,
feel like they're going to the guillotine.
They're like
their whole world is on the line,
but we don't
We try and not look at it like that,
you know, because your mindset,
how you approach the up-and-coming bout,
that can determine
the winner and the loser.
I'm in there watching me dad warm up
and get his hands wrapped.
And for me,
it's like a lifetime experience.
He's, like He's a legend.
What a stadium, what an atmosphere.
And he's on form, so, yeah.
Fingers crossed
this will get done quickly.
[Tyson] Thank you.
I'll see you out there. Thank you.
[audience chanting] Tyson Fury!
Tyson Fury!
[man] Yeah.
Right, let's get in there, prayer, boys.
[coach] Lord, we thank you for Tyson.
Lord, we look at him, Lord,
in amazement, Lord.
We pray, Lord, you will shield him.
Keep everybody safe, Lord.
Amen.
[all] Amen.
-Come on, Tys!
-[all clapping]
[man 2] Let's go do this!
[bell dings]
And now making his entrance
from Morecambe, England,
here is the defending WBC
and lineal heavyweight
champion of the world,
the Gypsy King,
Tyson Fury!
[audience cheering]
All the backstage work has been done.
I've got me team, I've got me family.
Everything's just getting more real
as the seconds go by.
The adrenaline's pumping through me veins.
It's flowing and I can't feel anything,
but victory within the air.
Today is go time.
-Come on, Tyson, lad! Come on, son!
-Come on.
[Prince] When you're stood there
with, like, 60,000 people,
or however many, 600,000 people,
it's not really
I don't really get stage fright,
I'm not scared, but it's just
when you're stood there, you think
"Every one of youse is for my dad."
My arms are hurting. That belt's
It ain't heavy,
but you know when you hold it up?
Holding it up
for more than thirty seconds kills you.
Come on, Tyson.
-[announcer] Heavyweight championship.
-[judge] Round one.
[bell dings]
[audience cheering]
When the bell first goes in a fight,
I instantly feel half numb
and my insides drop,
and I just don't know where I wanna be.
I don't wanna be there,
but I know I have to be there.
[announcer] What a swing
from Fury that comes in.
[Paris] No matter how I feel,
I always try and put a brave face on.
Tonight I've gotta do it even more
'cause the kids are here.
[man] And again, Tys.
Please, God. Let him win.
Please. Please, God.
[audience cheering]
-Go on, Tyson. Good charge!
-Shot, Tys.
-[bell dings]
-[announcer] End of one.
[Prince] He definitely won that round.
He definitely won that round.
He did. He definitely won the round.
He did.
This won't make it all the way.
Dad'll knock him down.
Usyk's here.
-What?
-Usyk's here.
[man] Tyson! Tys!
-[announcer] Seconds out, round two.
-[bell dings]
-Good round, Dad!
-Go on, Tys!
[both grunting]
[announcer]
Three-punch combination from Fury!
Let go of him. Go on, Tyson!
[announcer] There's the uppercut!
Come on!
Good shots, good shots.
[announcer] And Chisora's
trying to cover up. He's in trouble.
And Chisora clearly affected.
I've watched me dad fight
on the telly before.
Watching him in real life
is obviously a lot different.
I was just focusing
on how much punches my dad was taking.
And I was hoping he wouldn't get hurt.
How many fights
has Dad had that actually go full way?
A few.
Not a lot though?
[Paris] No.
[Prince] It's either he knocks them out
or they usually threw the towel in.
[bell dings]
[announcer] And Chisora cuts through
with confidence.
[John] Derek Chisora was on form.
He come for a winning.
You could hear the shots he landed.
They had ferocity behind them,
more so than Tyson.
[Prince] Come on, Dad.
[announcer] Chisora to the inside.
Come on, Tyson!
[Tommy] Chisora's in there.
He's brave. He's got heart.
He's making it a fight
and Tyson has to focus.
If he switches off for one second,
it could be game over.
[John] Shot, Tys.
Come on. Get him down.
Sometimes I was kind of getting scared
because at any moment
me dad could get knocked out.
If it was bad, he could never get up,
and that's what scares me.
-[bell dings]
-[announcer] Round number eight.
A lot of damage taken by Chisora.
Chisora's lip's busted.
[Tommy] Chisora's eye had a big lump
on it, bleeding out of his mouth
all over the floor of the ring,
blood everywhere.
One shot, end the match.
Come on, Dad!
[announcer] Let's see
if Fury can close the show.
-Come on, Tyson. Good charge!
-Shot, Tys!
[both grunting]
[man] That's it!
[announcer] Left uppercut,
that was clear, saying that's enough.
He is the winner
by way of technical knockout
and still the undefeated WBC
and lineal heavyweight
champion of the world,
Tyson Fury!
[audience cheering]
[Tyson] Where's Oleksandr Usyk,
the rabbit?
Hey, Rabbit!
Who's he calling out now?
Usyk! You're next,
you little bitch, you're next.
Me and you, sucker, next.
Me and you!
You get me, you little sucker? Rabbit!
Pussy!
[Venezuela] That's what you call
a nutcase for a father.
[Prince laughing]
I've already done one Ukrainian,
Klitschko, didn't I?
And I'll do you as well, gappy teeth.
Let's get it on, bitch!
[audience cheering]
Big Joe Joyce is here.
[Joe] I'll jump
in the ring as well, Tyson.
I'll tell you what, Joe.
I'm the only man who calls your name out.
-Everybody else is scared of you.
-Yes.
So if this little rabbit don't want it,
let's me and you, my brother, do Wembley.
-Let's do it.
-Come on, Joe Joyce! Come on, Joe!
[audience cheering]
60,000 people here tonight at Tottenham.
I love every single one of you people.
God bless you all.
-[cheering continues]
-[man 1] Tyson!
-[man 2] There he is.
-[all cheering]
[Prince] Seeing me dad's fight,
it made me think
I wanna be a boxer when I'm older.
So see what the future holds.
I need me suit. And I need to get
[Paris] I'm proud of
what Tyson's achieved.
It's amazing what he's done.
I think it's horrible to say this,
but I think Tyson's gonna box
until he's an old man.
I hope he doesn't, I hope he has the sense
to step away whilst he's young and fit
and healthy, but I don't know if he will.
When Tyson climbs through them ropes,
he's ready to do great things.
When he can no longer do it, it's done.
[Tyson] There's never an end point.
The day will come for everybody
to move over
and somebody else will replace them
and that day, who knows when it will be.
The king is back. Watch out.
