TOMMY FURY has been told to “consider pulling back from the spotlight” by an ex-champion – amid his break-up with Molly-Mae Hague.
The former couple met on hit ITV reality show Love Island and later got engaged while sharing one-year-old daughter Bambi.
But the two announced a public split amid cheating allegations in which Fury denies.
The brother of ex-heavyweight champion Tyson has broken his silence on social media and in YouTube vlogs.
But Paulie Malignaggi – who once held the light-welterweight world title – advised Fury to take cover in private.
He told CanadaCasino: “I don’t think Tommy Fury was ever going to compete for titles.
“He knew how to box because of his family, but that doesn’t make him world-class.
“He has the basics down, and that’s enough to win in the YouTube scene, but I don’t think he ever aimed to go for titles.
“If his situation really bothers him, then stop airing out your dirty laundry in public. If you’re comfortable, you don’t need to be in the public eye.
“I enjoy my life outside the public, and my private life doesn’t have to be aired out for me to be happy.

“If he’s genuinely bothered, he should consider pulling back from the spotlight.”
Fury, 25, last year beat YouTube’s biggest boxing stars in Jake Paul and KSI.
He beat Paul, 27, via split-decision in Saudi Arabia before a controversial points victory over KSI, 31, in October.
But he has not returned since having undergone hand surgery.
Fury is now back in training and recently revealed he is eyeing a December return after being called out by Paul and KSI to rematches.
