Triple H admits concerns over Braun Strowman's safety in Tyson Fury WWE match

Triple H admits he is worried about Braun Strowman ahead of his bout with Tyson Fury .

Fury is set to take on WWE superstar Strowman at Crown Jewel in Saudi Arabia.

Despite the British heavyweight boxer being a novice, Triple H concedes Strowman's wellbeing remains a concern.

"First and foremost, I worked with him on not caving in Braun's head. Everybody's worried about, like, 'oh my God, Tyson, what if you get hurt?' I'm worried about Braun. Nobody's concerned if Braun gets hurt," WWE executive Triple H told Bleacher Report.

"Poor old Braun would be 370-pound Braun laying on his back looking up at the stars, not having any idea that Tyson even threw a punch yet, but he's knocked out."

Meanwhile, Fury insists he took the fight as he wants to live in the here and now amid concerns over his rematch with Deontay Wilder .

Fury has conceded that fight could be off as a result but he could not resist the opportunity to fulfil a childhood dream by joining WWE.

"My concerns are, I don't have any. My concerns are to enjoy this to the max, a once in a lifetime opportunity for me," he added.

"Injuries can occur walking down the street. I can fall off a curb, snap me ankle, get run over by a bus—that's a part of life. We can't live a life of, what-ifs, because we'd never go out the front door.

"I'm not a person who lives life like that. Whatever iss going to be, will be. I'm just looking forward to it."

Fury and Strowman are set to enter the ring in Saudi Arabia later this month.
