The final sentence of the last para of the Love Island section is grammatically incorrect. It should read as follows:

In December 2019, Fury appeared on an ITV2 series called The Boxer and The Ballroom Dancer alongside fellow Love Island contestant Curtis Pritchard. They swapped careers, with Fury trying ballroom dancing and Pritchard taking up boxing. Nettle57 (talk) 13:13, 25 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Incorrectly stated decision

Fury vs Paul states it was a unanimous decision, but it was a split decision as the judges did not unanimously agree. 2003:CA:5749:45BB:41DD:FE1E:1978:1F63 (talk) 13:29, 9 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Where does it say unanimous? All I see is 'split'. Nswix (talk) 13:37, 9 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Currently it states "Fury defeated Paul via unanimous decision with one judge scored the fight (75–74) to Paul, while the other two judges scored it (76–73) to Fury", indicating it was a split decision but calling it a unanimous decision. 2003:CA:5749:45BB:41DD:FE1E:1978:1F63 (talk) 16:10, 9 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Since its kinda hard cuz his brother doesnt have his own wikipedia page

But in comparison to tommy fury's other brothers he is his legit brother

"personal life" section

In the paragraph: In 2019, Fury took part in Love Island, affectively halting his boxing career. Fury returned on 21 December fought Przemyslaw Binienda (2–26) at the Copper Box Arena in London, defeating him via technical knockout in the 1st round.[10] On 13 November 2020, Fury defeated Genadij Krajevskij (0–12) via knockout in the 2nd round.[11]

Tommy vs Scott Williams

I think this should be added on his early career: On 27 February 2021 at Copper Box Arena, London, England Tommy Fury fought Scott Williams defeating him via technical knockout in the 2nd round.
