But Logan did his best to try and goad his brother’s opponent during an interview mid-fight.
In full voice, he shouted: “Tommy, if you can hear me, you a bitch, bro and you’re gassing out.
“You a bitch, the whole Fury family are a bitch.”
Fury, 23, responded in the best way possible by dominating Jake, 26, that round on his way to a points win.
And Logan, 27, admitted his masterplan proved to only inspire Fury.
He said on his podcast: “Some people seem to be upset that I cut a promo mid-fight.
“What I was trying to do was – because I was on the mic – and you can hear it in the arena and I knew Tommy was sitting in his corner.
“And Jake was losing, so I just tried to talk s*** and get in Tommy’s head. The issue is, it just p****d him off.

“Because the round started and he just f****g unleashed a gnarly combination on Jake. I was like, ‘I just made him mad.’”
Fury’s dad John was also left fuming with Logan’s comments and accused the YouTube star of looking for attention by any means necessary.
John told The Express, via Free Bets: “Absolutely disgusting.
“Him piping up in a fight like that is not professional, but it just shows you that you are dealing with adolescent children, aren’t you?
“Because the comments during the fight are just ridiculous. That’s not professional.
“It doesn’t work, it’s bad for the viewers, it’s bad for everybody involved in it, in the game.
“But it is what it is, they are what they are, they’re YouTubers. They’ll do anything.
“They’ll give their left nut up for a viewing figure and he obviously thought it would enhance his status as a YouTuber coming out with all that stupidity. But we knew it was coming anyway.”
