Wouldn’t surprise me if Fury pulls out again. His girlfriend is due to have her baby soon, not that he needs an excuse to run away from a fight ;)

I wouldn't say Tommy is someone whom can consider a "capable" boxer because of his record. Most of his wins are against mediocre fighters at best with very poor win-loss ratio with the exception of Daniel Bocianski. I think this fight, we know which way it will go: obviously Jake's. Seeing Tommy's previous fights, he doesn't really focus on the defense and always go to the offense instead, so that's one department that he needs to work on as Jake is slowly becoming a somewhat well-rounded boxer through his previous bouts.

No hope for Jake Paul vs Nate Diaz already, for the first half of this year. Maybe Paul vs Diaz will happen. Too bad for Tommy he is matched up to Jake who always makes sure he wins the fight.

Rumor has it that Tommy isn't really interested in boxing but because his family is known to be in boxing, he just got into it even without ring IQ nor chin. But he had won 8 fights which is not to ignore. If he puts his heart into it, I think he may give a good fight.

Yes, I think Jake will win the fight because he is superior in fighting skills and has a lot of experience so he can easily beat his opponent. What's more, what he will be fighting against is Tommy, who is just an ordinary fighter.
So it's not difficult for Jake to finish the fight with an easy and short victory.
For betting, there will definitely be more bettors who place their bets on Jake and this is a good opportunity for us if we want to bet on this fight.

I hope this fight will still take place on the third attempt, some kind of uncontrollable desire on the part of Jake Paul to fight Tommy Fury, whose last fight was already quite a long time ago in April 2022 when he won on points against Daniel Botsyansky.

I don't think this fight has been confirmed yet just media speculation. Maybe they know something the public doesn't as it's hard to keep the rumours of these events from spreading once the ball is rolling and contracts are signed but there's nothing on Jake's or Tommy social media pages and those will be the first places to look for confirmation. The fight is almost a month away which seems quite soon as well. Have they both been in camp?

Tommy has a pretty much standard padded record for an up-and-comer. You don't go into the big fights without building yourself up first just like Jake has been doing. Personally I think this is a pretty well rounded fight and the biggest test for both of them. I don't see a knock-out and my money is on it going the distance. The biggest thing for me is it could end Tommy's boxing career before it's even started if he loses. I'm sure he's getting a life changing amount of money and will just pivot into being a social media star or something so it won't be too much of a loss but that embarrassment of losing to a YouTuber will certainly sting and it will never leave him.

I have this feeling that he will pull out again, or he will be motivated because of his girlfriend's condition, some boxers are motivated to fight even when their wives or girlfriends are dues, they want to prove something that they are successful when their baby comes out.
Jake Paul is on the winning run and I don't see him losing to a fighter like Tommy Fury, Tommy is not Tyson Fury he is not even half of his power and skill, I just hope he is man enough to finally face Jake Paul even if he has slim chance of winning.

A win-win situation for Tommy either way, then. Guy's obviously not born to be a boxer unlike his siblings and his father. Has a weak chin, doesn't have that fighter instinct, and punches weak and low for most of the time. If ever, he can use the money that he'll get from this fight (if it pushes through) to start a podcast or create videos for social media and just chase stardom. After all he already has the experience in the entertainment industry and he can just use this fight as a leverage to further just that.

I mean, just look at his past opponents. One guy even has 100+ losses with only 10+ wins! How can you even call that a proper and respectable win?

Bocianski's ratio looks only good when you don't check who he fought.
 
He only fought locally and Tommy was his first fight abroad, so he's not really an experienced fighter. Many of his opponents had very bad stats. It doesn't really mean anything if you win against a guy who's 11-37 or 2-12 and those were the guys he was fighting. They were just there to inflate his score and get him better paid contracts.

Jake Paul wants to win against a big name and Fury is a big name, even if it's the weaker little brother.

How many times they will set this match up and even i am in the opinion that we wont be seeing this fight this time around as well, there should be a betline whether Tommy Fury would pull out of the fight  :D. Hope there is something written in the contract that Tommy Fury cannot pull out of the fight until it is a major injury or the wise move would be to have a back up plan if the fight did not go as planned.

It will be a big embarrassment for Tommy Fury if this fight will not push through again because he is backing out again, people have high expectations of Tommy Fury because he is 8-0 and he is the real test for Jake Paul because now he is fighting a real boxer. but I consider Jake Paul a better fighter of the two, he is getting better in every fight, the last one on Silva, who is considered a big test because Silva beat Chavez Jr.who is a real pro with a good record in the ring.
Let's hope this fight will finally happen this fight will be a confirmation that Paul really can take professional boxers.

Jake Paul to compete in MMA after signing multiyear deal with PFL

Paul has signed a multifight contract with the promotion and will compete in a new division, known as Super Fight, with events on pay-per-view. No matchups have been lined up for the YouTube-star-turned-boxer, who intends to compete in both boxing and MMA this year.

Paul confirmed that he’s joined the PFL in an interview with the New York Times, which was first to report the news Thursday.

“This is about changing MMA, disrupting, innovating, and creating the next big league,” said Paul, who later announced the move in a video posted on his you social media platforms.

https://mmajunkie.usatoday.com/2023/01/mma-news-jake-paul-signs-with-pfl-compete-in-mma-contract-ufc


Jake recently signed with PFL's MMA promotion.

Not certain if it can serve as a foundation for a successful business relationship. Jake Paul's pay per view numbers haven't been good since fighting Tyron Woodley.

It is also in question as to how long Jake has been training MMA. He wrestled in high school and trained a little with Jorge Masvidal a few years ago. Logan Paul has trained MMA with Paulo Costa and others. It is possible that Jake Paul has been training MMA for a few years by this point in time. Which is close to the bare minimum one would expect for a person to become borderline competent with the wrestling and grappling side of things.

Then he should get a license to become a professional boxer and fight top-rated boxers he just wants money and popularity but he'll get nowhere  boxing with non-boxers, Tomy Fury is a real test because Tommy is a real professional boxer with an unbeaten record of 8-0 if Fury comes fully prepared and highly motivated to win he can end Jake Paul's winning streak, if the fight push one's zero will have to go.

He is still good at boxing but by signing up for MMA he wants to prove something I don't know if his training is really enough to be competitive in the MMA, he could be good in boxing but we have to see first if he can hold up in MMA.

Well that will just be what they call a journeyman and if you look at the early records of pretty much all pro boxers you will see the same stuff even with the current superstars like Tyson and Wilder etc. They just take easy opponents early on to break fighters in and pad their record to make their 'unbeaten' status look better than it actually is. It's a wise thing to do really as it would be a bit silly for a fighter to start off against people he is unlikely to win against. Here's a video about 'padded'/unbeaten records: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZaJJ3TZe7UM

If they announce the third one I doubt Tommy will pull out again unless he gets an injury. First time was a broken rib and some illness related to it and the second time he literally just couldn't get into the US due to his brother's association with the Kinehan Cartel (which I thought was harsh as Tommy has nothing to do wit them). Tommy seems to really want this fight. It will be a life-changing some of money, grow his exposure even more and he seems to think it's an easy fight for him. Jake probably also feels the same and that's why I'm hyped for this fight. It's a challenge for both of them and there's a lot on the line for both of them. If Jake loses then it's no big deal. He will say he wasn't supposed to win against a Pro but if he wins then Fury is going to be embarrassed potentially out of the sport.

I’m surprised on the odds given for Fury considering that he is an active pro boxer while most of Jake Paul previous opponent is not an active boxer or non boxer. Fury is the toughest opponent for Jake Paul to be honest despite most of his opponent is not that formidable. There’s a huge difference to fight a UFC fighter on boxing compared to an active boxer with a perfect record besides he is the younger of Tyson Fury which makes him a natural good boxer by blood.

I will take that 2.55 odds for him as an entertainment bet. I’m excited too if one of the Paul brothers will fight Salt Papi next.  :D

Jake Paul is 25 years and Tommy Fury is 23 years old, considering some physical factors and previous matches Fury might emerged the winner but due to weight and age advantage I won't be surprised seeing Paul winning over the fight, although Fury history has a better chance than Jake. So if I where to bet I would placed Fury to take over the fight against Paul.

Undeniable that Jake is strong he  prove that on his past fights but Tommy Fury is professional boxer with smooth record with 50% K.O percentage for sure this will be heavy opponent for Jake to defeat. I will choose fury for this match since I think he's record/experience and youth can give him more better chances to be the winner on this match.

No matter how much money they offer for these two to fight when they cannot make a deal behind the curtain, it would be useless even though they are getting a huge offer from a place like that. If they really wanted to fight, they could have decided it earlier last year as we all know, when this guy fight in the ring, there should be some ritual before the signing of the contract.

Nevertheless, when they gonna fight this time, I think Jake Paul's luck will run out because he is really in big trouble fighting Fury's brother but unless something will be cooked before the fight, everything will turn out to be unexpected again.

Finally two non boxers are going to fight in a professional boxing fight :D Hope this time no one is going to create un upset and the fight gets postponed again. Last time I remember Fury's father was really  pissed by Jakes trash talk during their video conference. Hope this time one of the trash talkers (yeap, Tommy talked dirty also) get what he deserve.

Glad that this fight is going to take place in Saudi Arabia. No one is going to get a "home" advantage, plus everyone are going to earn big cheques. Hope that will force other promotions (*cough* UFC *cough*) rethink their payment policy.

P.S. Playboy is going to get knocked out :D

Tommy Fury finally set to fight Jake Paul this year as Saudi Arabia throw millions to host bout instead of UK.

I’m seeing early odds on fiat sportsbooks as:

Paul  1.54
Fury  2.55

Wouldn’t surprise me if Fury pulls out again. His girlfriend is due to have her baby soon, not that he needs an excuse to run away from a fight ;)
I'm sort of done with these celebrity fights. Why can't they just get into the competitive scene and prove how tough they are. Which they could, especially Jake, since he's full time into fighting, isnt he? He seems good enough at least to do that.

Btw yeah, Jake has improved a lot since their fight was cancelled. Jake had 2 fights (a fight that he won via KO against Woodley, and UD against Anderson Silva). Since then Tommy did what? Had 1 fight against Daniel Bocianski with record 10-1, which he has built against aged boxers with negative record ? :D That is an usual opponent Tommy fight against.

Do you smell that also? The smell of lame excuses. Tommy better go back posing in front of mirror and pumping his arms, instead of barking on Jake. Even though I dont really like Jake, but this time I am going to cheer for him and expect a KO.

Paul has already completed 6 fights. But Fury is only a 23-year-old boxer without much fighting experience.  But Paul is three years older than him and has more fight experience. So most viewers and gamblers are supporting Paul.  And everyone expects Paul to win the boxing match. I'll bet a few dollars on Paul myself.

This story is dragging on too long, and it's time to end it. It looks like Fury wants to do it himself this time. What I like the most here is that Fury said he will fight for free, that is, for this fight the fighters will not receive anything, the promoters will not receive anything, and all the money raised will go to charity, this is a great decision, and I hope that it will be so, because Paul very often likes to stir up hype around him large sums, as it was recently with Paddy.

Jake Paul has the edge on this one I guess. If it is true that Fury have dodged Paul a couple of times maybe confidence is lacking on his end, and that is an important thing. But since hype is there already, this would be for sure exciting to watch. But quite of an interest, I'd like to see salt papi vs jake paul for some reason. They're on heat together with KSI which I think would rain bets to whoever would be able to land a match up on these three. In terms of skills, PAPI I guess would be on advantage. But going back with this match up, Fury has the potential as well but it is just that Jake has more exposure with fights with 'tougher' opponents which could be his biggest advantage.

I don't know about you but Tommy has completed 8 fights and also has 8 wins, so if we are talking about fight experience, Tommy fury has the upper hand. that being said, seeing Tommy Fury's opponent's stats on his boxing record, I think his experience is probably on par with jake paul. anyway, what I would love to see in this fight is how much they have improved after their fights.

You don't review Tommy's winning history 8 times because all of his opponents are very foreign to me, so the factor of the high number of wins cannot be used as an opportunity to analyze potential wins, even though Jake Paul only won 6 times but his opponents were professional fighters/boxers, so Jake Paul is superior to comparative history of wins, he has had better experience having fought professional boxers.

It needs to happen to stop people saying Jake hasn't fought a real boxer yet. However, I can't say I'm looking forward to the fight. I'll probably tune in if I remember to do so. Since, I've been vaguely following the career of Jake, just because it's a little different from most new fighters. However, I don't expect Fury to put up much of a fight, from what I've watched of him he's rather mediocre, nothing to write home about. Whereas, at least Jake looks hungry in his fights, despite at times not looking the best. Fury kind of just does boxing because of his name, well at least that's the impression he gives me.

You rarely see much passion from Tommy in the ring.

Tommy Fury is a professional boxer first and foremost and was one before he came a 'celebrity'. People have been complain that Jake hasn't been fighting pros so here he is (assuming the fight does actually goe ahead). It's a good step up and challenge for both of them. If Jake wins then he's beaten a pro and if Tommy loses he's lost to a youtuber. If Tommy wins then his profile will skyrocket and people might start taking him seriously as a boxer or certainly will when he starts to fight ranked opponents after that.

Jake Paul has the edge on this one I guess. If it is true that Fury have dodged Paul a couple of times maybe confidence is lacking on his end, and that is an important thing. But since hype is there already, this would be for sure exciting to watch. But quite of an interest, I'd like to see salt papi vs jake paul for some reason.

But going back with this match up, Fury has the potential as well but it is just that Jake has more exposure with fights with 'tougher' opponents which could be his biggest advantage.

I doubt Jake would fight him. It would probably be a bit of a step down for him right now. If he's going back to Youtube boxers then it will be KSI. KSI has stated he wants to fight him in 2023 but I'm not sure how feasible that is given KSI will need some more ring experience before Jake and will probably want at least two fights before that which they will struggle to get done this year.

Not sure KSI has the natural ability that Jake has, add onto that fact that Jake has been training a lot longer, and more dedicated than KSI with no signs of stopping. I personally don't see KSI ever being able to catch up, and get good enough to challenge Jake. If Jake takes that fight, it'll be a ego fight just to prove to his social media fans that he's better, which I think most other people who aren't a fan of either of these men, know.

KSI probably gets knocked out pretty soon after that bell rings, and I like KSI more than Jake. That's just how I see it, and I think most people see it. You only have to compare the calibre of fighters they've fought, but also the technique is completely different. KSI windmills, and leaves himself open. Jake, actually looks to counter punch, so stylistically, it suits Jake too.

You don't review Tommy's winning history 8 times because all of his opponents are very foreign to me, so the factor of the high number of wins cannot be used as an opportunity to analyze potential wins
if you actually read my post you'll see that I wrote "seeing Tommy Fury's opponent's stats on his boxing record". so I am not sure why your saying I didn't review his winning history. also, Tommy's opponents are boxers that have more experience compared to the majority of Jake Paul's opponents.

even though Jake Paul only won 6 times but his opponents were professional fighters/boxers, so Jake Paul is superior to comparative history of wins, he has had better experience having fought professional boxers.
I'm sorry what? 4 of his opponents have little to zero experience fighting in boxing(one of them was a retired basketball player) and also 4 of them debuted when they fought jake paul. the only person he fought that have an experience in boxing was Anderson Silva.

I wouldn't say Tommy is someone whom can consider a "capable" boxer because of his record. Most of his wins are against mediocre fighters at best with very poor win-loss ratio with the exception of Daniel Bocianski. I think this fight, we know which way it will go: obviously Jake's. Seeing Tommy's previous fights, he doesn't really focus on the defense and always go to the offense instead, so that's one department that he needs to work on as Jake is slowly becoming a somewhat well-rounded boxer through his previous bouts.

That's why this fight is somewhat fair enough because both boxers just defeated mediocre boxers and fighters who are not on their prime anymore. In paper, it seems that Jake Paul got more upper hand in this fight and that includes his height and reach advantage as well. I'm not favoring Jake Paul here because just like Tommy Fury, both of them still needed to prove themselves but if in case Jake Paul will win, Fury will be his key to be in a much bigger stage in the boxing industry's limelight.

Jake Paul's record is way better than Tommy and he has an edge because he has better experiences. Jake has a bigger advantage here and that's what Tommy should be mindful about. He must prepare hard before he faces Jake so he won't miss the chance to prove himself more in the ring. It will be an opportunity for him to make a better record so he'll have something to show up in his next fights.

Yes, I think Jake will win the fight because he is superior in fighting skills and has a lot of experience so he can easily beat his opponent. What's more, what he will be fighting against is Tommy, who is just an ordinary fighter.
So it's not difficult for Jake to finish the fight with an easy and short victory.
For betting, there will definitely be more bettors who place their bets on Jake and this is a good opportunity for us if we want to bet on this fight.

At first, I thought Tommy Fury would win judging on their physique. But I watched his previous fights and I could definitely say that Jake Paul has the upper hand.

The thing about Jake Paul is that he calculates the risks on his decision on the ring. He always make sure that he would win based on the scoring system, whereas Tommy is known on his aggressive and purely offense strategy. Though that may prove to be useful, I doubt that it will work against Jake Paul given the stakes that are present in this match.

Nevertheless, I would still watch this fight but I doubt that I would bet on the process. Still a very entertaining fight but not something that I would go crazy about.

I’m seeing early odds on fiat sportsbooks as:

Paul  1.54
Fury  2.55

Wouldn’t surprise me if Fury pulls out again. His girlfriend is due to have her baby soon, not that he needs an excuse to run away from a fight ;)
Paul is my favourite boxer and i am one of the fan of his. And I think he's capable of winning a fight with Fury. I wouldn't be afraid to bet on him even though his odds are low. And I know Paul fights with his own technic so it's only natural that he wins. i will bet $20 for paul. sportsbet is a good way to bet on different sports.  And I am personally comfortable using it

It needs to happen to stop people saying Jake hasn't fought a real boxer yet. However, I can't say I'm looking forward to the fight. I'll probably tune in if I remember to do so. Since, I've been vaguely following the career of Jake, just because it's a little different from most new fighters. However, I don't expect Fury to put up much of a fight, from what I've watched of him he's rather mediocre, nothing to write home about. Whereas, at least Jake looks hungry in his fights, despite at times not looking the best. Fury kind of just does boxing because of his name, well at least that's the impression he gives me.

You rarely see much passion from Tommy in the ring.
Jake always tries his best in the ring because he always tries for his followers/fans, he is a showman in some way and he understands that the action on the ring should please the public, so even if he does not do well, there is a lot of activity in the ring. It's clear that he only needs Fury to prove that he can fight a boxer, but Tommy can hardly be called a professional in the full sense, but he can hit well, I would watch this fight.

Btw yeah, Jake has improved a lot since their fight was cancelled. Jake had 2 fights (a fight that he won via KO against Woodley, and UD against Anderson Silva). Since then Tommy did what? Had 1 fight against Daniel Bocianski with record 10-1, which he has built against aged boxers with negative record ? :D That is an usual opponent Tommy fight against.

Do you smell that also? The smell of lame excuses. Tommy better go back posing in front of mirror and pumping his arms, instead of barking on Jake. Even though I dont really like Jake, but this time I am going to cheer for him and expect a KO.
This story is dragging on too long, and it's time to end it. It looks like Fury wants to do it himself this time. What I like the most here is that Fury said he will fight for free, that is, for this fight the fighters will not receive anything, the promoters will not receive anything, and all the money raised will go to charity, this is a great decision, and I hope that it will be so, because Paul very often likes to stir up hype around him large sums, as it was recently with Paddy.

Dont trust anything celebrity says. Fury imho pretends to be fluffy angel. Charity, he does not need money. Looks completely fake to me. Why would he even come up with such idea? HE was never "for the boxers". Despite Jake, that always say that fighters (specially UFC), receive low rewards.

I really hope that they fight this time, and there would no fight cancelation. Hope that there wont be no sudden reason to cancel fight again.

Do you know when was their fight announced really? Topic was dated January 17. Just a bit more than month before fight. Will they have enough time to run a proper camp? Or that is the trick. No one takes it seriously, prepare seriously, as they already plan to cancel it or make fighter replacement.

I would agree right now that Jake is the better boxer but we've seen way more of him and KSI has fought two bums and then KOd the last guy pretty quickly so it's hard to tell what level he's at right now. I don't think he will box Jake without having at least another two fights so I can't see that fight happening this year though maybe they could squeeze it in at the end of the year and go out with a bang. I think KSI will be weary of biting off more than he can chew and will want to keep that unbeaten record for as long as he can to hype up the Jake fight (but that's assuming Jake doesn't lose to Tommy).

If the fight is next month then they will have already been in camp or at the very least been doing some serious training. Both guys look like they're constantly in the gym judging by their social media anyway so it's not like they'll be unfit. If the fight does go ahead next month then both guys will have known for quite some time the fight was likely going to happen then so would both be prepared for it. Both fighters have said the fight has been in the works for months so they would have known whether it was likely to happen and they're probably just trying to squeeze some more money from Saudi out of it much like Tyson and Usyk are trying to do.

I did not mean that he refuses to pay with good intentions, rather it was done in order to annoy Jake, so that he does not receive anything for this fight, so that the fight is not interesting to him. I understand that both of them don’t care about charity, and Fury refuse money because just want to beat Jake, but refusing money is a really strange decision, if he wants to, he could just give his fee after the fight to charity.

If this fight is rescheduled again, then I won’t be surprised. It seems that they like to fight in social networks even more than in the ring.

Personally, the only way I see KSI winning his through heart, and heart alone. Technically, we've seen KSI against Logan Paul, Pineda?, some other Youtube guy and this Faze guy. None of those at the time of fighting had much of a career or were known for their boxing. I think it's only Pineda that was known for boxing, but from what I saw he wasn't much of a fighter.

If you put Jake against any of those, I think he beats them. I haven't seen much of the Faze guy, so it's probably unfair to include him in that assessment. However, the others lasted a fair while with KSI, and he didn't look brilliant against them. His technique is rather wild, and I'll always favour a counter puncher when it comes to wild fighters.

Have you seen anything from KSI that you think will trouble Jake?

I think I’d rather be betting on whether or not this fight takes place. Tommy has ducked Jake so many times now, it seems more like he’s trolling Jake by accepting these fights. If they do fight though, I don’t think Tommy has a chance. I was watching some of his fight videos and he really doesn’t look like a pro fighter. Jake will probably be able to knock him out at which point I think KSI or Nate Diaz would be the next fights to make.

I think the one time was due to the issues with his family being involved, with certain criminals which prevented him from entering the US. So, I can see how he probably didn't anticipate that as it all came out around that time. Not sure, what the status of that is now.

Dillion Dannis also ducked KSI though, so there could be more going on behind the scenes than we know. Not sure, the reason these two would be ducking them though. There's a lot of money in it for them win or lose, and I don't take any of them to care too much about their boxing record. Especially Dillion. Mabye, Fury wants to keep his reputation with the Fury family, but ultimately there's a ton of money in it for him. Plus, he doesn't seem to be taking his boxing career anywhere so he might as well cash in while it's being offered to him. Jake seems to be outgrowing Fury.

Pineda is only a boxer on paper or someone who merely did enough to get a boxing licence. Most would struggle to call him a pro. If you saw him fight he was an amateur at best. He shouldn't have been in the ring with KSI and neither should have that Swarmz guy who they pretty much just dragged off the street but they were both replacements for other fighters that dropped out. Both did better on the last misfits card with both fighters even winning. They've both clearly been training since their last fights and I'm sure we'll see them on future Misfits cards.

Have you seen anything from KSI that you think will trouble Jake?

Nope. Not at all. I think Jake is by far the superior boxer but like I said, still not really seen much from KSI for an accurate assessment. The KSI/Logan Paul fight was very close from what I remember. Maybe KSI does believe he can win or maybe he doesn't care as he knows it will be his biggest bag. He can still just go on to headline the Misfits cards even if he loses.

He hasn't really been challenged yet and has clearly just been fighting journeymen. I don't think he's that bad but he's definitely got a leg up on the Fury name. This fight will be his big test. I think the fact that there's so much on the line for them to lose is what makes this fight interesting for me.

Fair point, and for that, Tommy still has another month to decide if whether he will continue to fight Jake or not. I know that this fight has been inked already but considering Tommy's past decisions towards this fight and Jake Paul in particular, it's not that far that he will make a run again and leave Jake in the air with the thoughts of finally having a bout with Tommy. But in any case, if this fight really pushes through, Jake Paul will eventually defeat Tommy Fury, no doubt.

Yeah, the first fight between KSI, and Logan was a draw. The second fight was close, with KSI just about winning. Although, that was with two point reductions for two illegal strikes, so you could argue that the fight could've easily been a win for Logan if that didn't happen. Haven't really seen enough of Logan to actually know how good he is though. He looked okay against Mayweather, but obviously the weight difference, and the fact that Mayweather likely wasn't trying all that hard. I didn't watch it, and only looked at highlights though.

I don't doubt that KSI believes he can win, but he does sort of have a god complex when it comes to his ability to do things. Although, to be fair a lot of what he has said he'll do, he's actually done. I don't think Jake has the same self belief as him, but I imagine he's pretty confident in beating KSI, and probably wants that fight sooner rather than later considering their skill sets right now.

KSI does have Viddal Riley around him for advice though, so he could potentially develop quite quickly with the right trainers.

Well it's not 100% confirmed yet but is 99.75% according to John Fury  :D:

https://metro.co.uk/2023/01/19/john-fury-confirms-tommy-fury-will-fight-jake-paul-on-25-february-18134258/

Quote
We are 99 and three-quarters per cent there and for my money, it is on,’ John Fury told Metro.co.uk via FreeBets.com. ‘We are ready, he is ready we are just waiting now to get the final confirmation and I think they will announce it very soon.

‘We are in camp anyway, we started camp before Christmas, we are in a good place and we are looking forward to it. I know it is two reality TV stars basically, a YouTuber and a TV star. I know people look at it like that but it is great viewing and great entertainment. That is where we are at.

‘Tommy has been working hard in the gym, he has had nine professional fights and done nothing wrong. He has come along nice and steady, learning the game and learning his trade and I’m happy. And I’m happy Jake Paul has shown the minerals to step into the ring with him, a proper boxer. We are looking forward to it.’

Interestingly enough even Tommy's dad isn't calling him a boxer but a 'reality star'.

Nope. Not at all. I think Jake is by far the superior boxer but like I said, still not really seen much from KSI for an accurate assessment.

Sometimes people have bravado publicly but behind closed doors is different thing. I've no dount that he has belief in himself but he also probably knows he's not quite ready for Jake right now. He would have made that his next fight if so as that's the one everyone wants to see and is probably the biggest money-maker. Logan and KSI should probably do the third fight. Maybe they can do it after Jake. That would still do big numbers I reckon. Logan was going to fight on the last Misfits card but then he inured his leg wrestling. I think it was him who was originally going to fight Danis. Maybe that fight can still happen if Danis hasn't completely burned his bridges by pulling out and not taking it serious.

Tommy Fury understood that Jake Paul is currently gaining a lot of attention and popularity (with all that Nate Diaz boxing and MMA calls). He posts a lot of pictures of him training MMA. I even think we will soon see Jake having a MMA fight. Tommy has understood that this is a great chance to remind everyone about himself. He only wants to jump on a hype train.

I saw someone talking that Tommy is going to fight for free. What are his motives to do that? To show that he only want to close Jakes mouth? Then do it in a gym. Tommy dont have to do it so officially.

If Paul and Fury will have MMA fight, I think it would be a circus fight since MMA is more technical than boxing, you can't just grappling and take down someone without knowing what you will do in the next move and how to end your opponent via submission.

Nah, any boxer wouldn't even want to fight for free including a weak boxer, at least they got paid for small amount money as an appreciation. It would be different if the fight is for charity, some popular boxer done this for few times before.

I don't see any bookie add this event yet, maybe it will when it's already close like 1 week before the event.

I saw someone talking that Tommy is going to fight for free. What are his motives to do that? To show that he only want to close Jakes mouth? Then do it in a gym. Tommy dont have to do it so officially.

Tommy isn't going to fight for free. He posted a video on social media a month or so ago saying that it's not about the money now and would even fight him for free as he was annoyed that it was taking so long to get done and many people and outlets were claiming he's ducking Jake again but we all know that's just some nonsense he said out of frustration. Tyson even said the same thing about AJ when we know that's not going to happen. These big boxing fights only get made because of the money and nothing else.

Tommy Fury understood that Jake Paul is currently gaining a lot of attention and popularity (with all that Nate Diaz boxing and MMA calls). He posts a lot of pictures of him training MMA. I even think we will soon see Jake having a MMA fight. Tommy has understood that this is a great chance to remind everyone about himself. He only wants to jump on a hype train.

If Paul and Fury will have MMA fight, I think it would be a circus fight since MMA is more technical than boxing, you can't just grappling and take down someone without knowing what you will do in the next move and how to end your opponent via submission.

He didn't say those two were going to do MMA but rather Jake has been training for a potential MMA fight. I'm sceptical Jake will fight a proper MMA fighter as that's not something you can quickly transition to. Jake might beat someone like Nate Diaz in boxing but there's no way he'd beat him at MMA. I think Jake has some wrestling experience in high school but I don't think that's enough to compete professionally but he's surprised me with his boxing skills so who knows.

I think I’d rather be betting on whether or not this fight takes place. Tommy has ducked Jake so many times now, it seems more like he’s trolling Jake by accepting these fights. If they do fight though, I don’t think Tommy has a chance. I was watching some of his fight videos and he really doesn’t look like a pro fighter. Jake will probably be able to knock him out at which point I think KSI or Nate Diaz would be the next fights to make.

Fair point, and for that, Tommy still has another month to decide if whether he will continue to fight Jake or not. I know that this fight has been inked already but considering Tommy's past decisions towards this fight and Jake Paul in particular, it's not that far that he will make a run again and leave Jake in the air with the thoughts of finally having a bout with Tommy. But in any case, if this fight really pushes through, Jake Paul will eventually defeat Tommy Fury, no doubt.

Well it's not 100% confirmed yet but is 99.75% according to John Fury  :D:

https://metro.co.uk/2023/01/19/john-fury-confirms-tommy-fury-will-fight-jake-paul-on-25-february-18134258/

Quote
We are 99 and three-quarters per cent there and for my money, it is on,’ John Fury told Metro.co.uk via FreeBets.com. ‘We are ready, he is ready we are just waiting now to get the final confirmation and I think they will announce it very soon.

‘We are in camp anyway, we started camp before Christmas, we are in a good place and we are looking forward to it. I know it is two reality TV stars basically, a YouTuber and a TV star. I know people look at it like that but it is great viewing and great entertainment. That is where we are at.

‘Tommy has been working hard in the gym, he has had nine professional fights and done nothing wrong. He has come along nice and steady, learning the game and learning his trade and I’m happy. And I’m happy Jake Paul has shown the minerals to step into the ring with him, a proper boxer. We are looking forward to it.’

Interestingly enough even Tommy's dad isn't calling him a boxer but a 'reality star'.

That goes to show that this upcoming fight will just be an another circus for the two reality television star. Tommy's dad indeed used the appropriate labels and how to address Tommy and Jake, and also, people won't stop criticizing this two if they won't face a true boxer and not just someone who does have a huge fan base in the internet. Up to this point, I can't still believe that there's a lot of people out there who are excited for this fight.

Now I got it. Tommy meant that he is going to fight Jake Paul anyway, with or without payment. It is personal between them. Perhaps Jake has offended Tommy or Fury family severely, as I saw Tommy's father was very angry on Jake.

By looking on Jakes boxing career I ask myself what this kid wasnt to get. Fame? Maybe, but he is already famous. Belt, hardly he will get any. Money? He can get it in more harmless way.

I don't think it will be a circus. None of Jake's fights so far have really been. Jake is taking his boxing career pretty seriously and this is just another step on it towards bigger things and gets him the accolade of actually fighting a current pro boxer who is in his age range. I think it's a wise move on Jake's part as the Fury name alone attracts a lot of attention and he's not biting off more than he can chew by taking on a very experience pro in the prime of their careers. Tommy hasn't shown anything that would suggest he's a bad boxer but he just hasn't done anything to get him all the attention he gets other than from his name but he's still early on in his career. Nobody was really talking about Tyson at that stage in his career either most likely but now Tommy just has to prove himself to break away from the curse of his name. If he loses though he's well and truly fucked. IF he's wins though then he will be the first person to beat Jake and that will certainly put him on the map and the media attention he will get will be insane. Personally I think it's a pretty even fight and that's why I'm looking forward to it as there's a lot on the line for both of them.

Yeah. I'd just a take it a bravado comment made out of frustration though. He's basically just trying to claim it's not about the money anymore and is now mostly personal and if the only thing holding the fight back is the money then he will do just do it for free if that's what it takes, but we know it's obviously nonsense and a hollow comment because the only reason he is entertaining this comment is because it's going to give him the biggest payday he will likely receive for a boxing match.

John Fury can talk mind, can't he. He's definitely entertaining, but I feel Fury is a lot like his father in that way, whereas Tommy hasn't got that same charisma or confidence. Obviously, John was a decent boxer himself. Tommy, probably is the odd one out in terms of boxing ability, and I think he knows that hence the rather relaxed approach to his career.

Except for his earlier fights, I'd agree. Although, I don't think that's any fault of Jake's, it was either the opponent not actually taking it seriously, like that Nate fellow or the production was absolutely awful. I remember trying to watch one of the earlier fights, and it was almost like a concert in between the fights which was ridiculous.

Yeah, Tommy seems to be more of an introvert and doesn't really have the banter or ego like Tyson, which isn't a bad thing. Tommy is probably more like his mother than father. I think John was in prison for a big chunk of Tommy's earlier life so maybe that's why he doesn't take after him much like his other brothers. I don't think John was a decent boxer either. I believe he's even said that himself. I think he tries to live vicariously through Tyson now.

I think they were just trying to shake things up with the production. I think you have to do something different with the influencer boxing events. They seem to be like a mix of boxing with some WWE-style theatre/drama. They're all mostly entertainers so there's going to be a little bit of that thrown in and I think it adds something to the fights. There's a good mix though. You get the people who probably only started training a few months ago and probably shouldn't be in a ring but then you get the people with natural talent or who surprise you. If Tommy loses this fight I suspect he'll probably just do influencer boxing. Maybe Misfits should sign him. He'd still be a big draw there and maybe more at home and he'll still probably be among the best of the influencer fighters.

After multiple failed attempts to get Tommy Fury in the ring, the moment of truth has finally arrived.

Fumbles has no excuses now. Baby is born. Money is massive. Immigration is not an issue. Sunday February 26, Paul vs Fury is live on ESPN+ PPV in the US and BT Sport Box Office in the UK.

Tyson Fury has promised he and Papa John will make Tommy retire from boxing and change his last name forever if he can’t beat the YouTuber. Saturday (tomorrow) I’m coming to London to look at all three Fury’s in the eye and shake on that promise.

I wonder if all three Fury's will be involved in the build up like last time. That will certainly add some spice to things. I'm looking forward to it either way. There's a lot on the line for both of them as someone is likely going to lose their undefeated title (assuming no draws which I could actually see if it's close which it might well be). I think there's more pressure on Tommy now especially if Tommy's family reiterates that they will disown him or urge he quits if he loses.

Tommy Fury will not run out of excuse if his aim is to leave Jake Paul hanging as the fight schedule approaches near, he might not decide now but he still have some days to back out as it's not new anymore if he will run again. Although, there's a good chance that this fight will be pushed through especially after saying that fact where the Fury family will disown him if he will suddenly quit again and if he will be lost, the family will pressure him to quit for good. But for a draw? I don't think that will happen this time, Jake Paul won't agree with that as this is already quite personal to him.

These two are getting paid very handsomely, and it seems Jake Paul has really pushed for this to happen. You've got to respect that after having the issues from Tommy, he still made the fight happen. It's probably the most logicial step in his career to make an impression to the greater boxing community. So, I can see why he was eager to get this done. There's also an element of risk. I don't think I'd see any of the other Youtube boxers making the same move, so I definitely respect Jake for getting this done twice.

I think I'll be supporting Jake in this fight, and definitely put a bet on him. I think Tommy will be decent mind you, I don't think it's going to be a easy fight for Jake. I know, he isn't as good as his name suggests, but he is a boxer, and while not being the best boxer in the world, the same goes for Jake.

I dislike when fans because they don't like Jake, simply want him to prove himself by fighting the best of the best, but in the same breath scoff at him when he says he wants to beat Cancelo. Jake is proving himself to me, step by step. Plus, he's doing it very intelligently, I don't know who's suggesting these fights to him or if it's himself thinking them up. He's making the perfect move each time to build a real career out of this. Tommy, despite not being the best will excel his career forward if he wins.

I think saying he will beat Canelo is a bit silly though. Jake should just continue doing what he's doing now and stepping up with each fight and see where he gets to. Maybe he will fight a big boxing name at the tail end of their career but for now I think he should stick with fighters that are within his reach at his current skill level. I think he should probably aim for that Mayweather fight at some point. That one sells itself as there's already a lot of bad blood between them and Mayweather keeps on lining bums up so he may as well go for a challenge. I'm not sure if Mayweather would take the fight though as Jake will be the toughest opponent he's fought since Connor. McGregor would make a good match up as well assuming he can get out of his UFC contact which I think still has two fights left on it. KSI will probably fight Jake at some point but I don't think it will be Jake's or even KSI's next fight.

Wouldn’t surprise me if Fury pulls out again. His girlfriend is due to have her baby soon, not that he needs an excuse to run away from a fight ;)

I have this feeling that he will pull out again, or he will be motivated because of his girlfriend's condition, some boxers are motivated to fight even when their wives or girlfriends are dues, they want to prove something that they are successful when their baby comes out.
Jake Paul is on the winning run and I don't see him losing to a fighter like Tommy Fury, Tommy is not Tyson Fury he is not even half of his power and skill, I just hope he is man enough to finally face Jake Paul even if he has slim chance of winning.
I guess this time Fury will be more motivated to fight as pulling out again will only ruin his reputation, and this would be a good opportunity to prove himself that he’s better than any boxer just like Jake Paul. However, looking at how these two perform in the ring, I think my vote is for Jake Paul as he is always undefeated and you will really see that he got high discipline and high determination to win. Although Tommy Fury is a decent fighter too, like what Tyson keep on saying, but I can see that Paul has its advantage over Tommy inside the ring.

Tommy should be motivated because he already got all the reasons why he shouldn't get an excuse to run away from this fight as he needed more fame and money because his girlfriend just bore their child while his family already expressed their thought that he's not welcome to the family anymore if he will run away and if he loses, he better quit boxing. Now, his only choice is to face Jake Paul like a decent man should do and grab a win for his whole family, although I know that's not an easy way to do.

Cannot wait for Tommy Fury to knock Jake Paul out cold. Then we can stop pretending that Jake Paul is the next big thing in boxing and he will be exposed for the types of fights he has been setting up. I never liked the paul brothers because of some of the things they have done but talking purely on boxing Jake is a good amateur but he is not cut out for real boxers with experience. He will be exposed and I think Tommy Fury will be the one to do it.

I don't think though that Jake Paul should be considered the next big thing in boxing, he doesn't have the tools and the discipline to be one. His probably just in for the money.

So yeah, we may see him getting knock the hell out of Jake Paul as there are animosity between the two. We have heard that this fight might be cancelled or Tommy Fury pulling out again in the last minute. So Jake Paul has a back up on Mike Perry.

He is the one that is making all the money right now. He is the one that is being talked about by the entire boxing community. People are forgetting about legit big fights because this Jake Paul keeps talking and gaining the most attention. I think what he has done for boxing is great he has got eyes on it again but I cannot wait for him to be found out by a real boxer. We will probably lose most of the viewers then but I think some will stick around.

Mike Perry is a great fighter who wont take a dive so that could be interesting. if Jake Paul beats either Tommy Fury or Mike Perry I will have more respect for him but atm he has not proved himself against a legit opponent.

I don't think most people are pretending or even thinking he's going to be the next big thing but he's certainly impressed me and I'm wondering how far he can take this, but if Jake wins are you going to give him his props or just find an excuse to discredit the win? I think Jake has been wise with his fights, but he's doing it right and stepping up with each match and this fight is another perfect step as it gets him that kudos of fighting a proper boxer his own age and one that's similarly matched stat wise. I think that's all what makes this fight exiting for me. It's pretty much 50/50 from the comments I've read. Jake's haters think he's going to lose, Jakes fanboys think he's going to win and I'm in the middle as are lots of other neutrals. If Jake does actually beat Tommy I think it's going to be pretty huge and if Jake actually KO's him like he has done nearly everyone else then there won't be any excuses about his skill level. However, if he loses then the hype train will probably die down pretty fast, but again, that's why this fight is so interesting to me.

Lots of big fights have a back up opponent but that doesn't mean he's expecting him to pull out. It's just a safety net. Tommy has genuine excuses for the previous fights falling through though and I doubt he'd go to all this trouble trying to make it the third time if he didn't want it. It's probably going to be the biggest payday Tommy ever gets so I doubt he's going to drop the bag this time.

Trying to say that Tommy Fury is a professional boxer, who is better than Jake Paul? Jake has a better record, and he did not fight boxers with negative record, debutants or aged.

Jake Paul is not a next big thing in boxing. But in the ring he does what he promises, punch the crap out of his opponents. People disrespect him for trashtalk. But that helps him to sell fight, and his opponent to get a bigger reward. So they should be thankful for that. People disrespect him for fighting veterans. Like you have said, he is an amateur. Why experienced professional athlete cant whips Jakes ass then? Coz they are old? Then dont sign contract and fight, simply pass.

Jake did not train boxing from very childhood like others. People say he should face a real boxer his age. A real boxer that trains since diapers? What is the point of such fight? Jake fights equal his abilities opponents.

I only say he is the next best thing in boxing because people believed him when he said he wants to fight and beat Cancelo. Cancelo is one of the GOATS of boxing and this kid who has just got into boxing fought Youtubers and MMA fighters thinks he can beat one of the greatest of all time? Then I see on /r/boxing that people believe that he can because he has knocked out every opponent and knocked down Silva. I do not believe it and I think he will be knocked out by Mike Perry and think Tommy Fury will beat him.

I'm not sure where you read Jake Paul knocked down Silva, the fight end in decision, same like when he was fight with Woodley in the first match. He only knock out 4 from 6 total fights, he doesn't knocked down every boxers. He has no way to beat Canelo, the gap is too far, even Paul will train very hard for everyday, it doesn't enough except Canelo going easy with him or he have to wait until Canelo become more mature.

I think Paul will able to beat Fury or Perry, but I think it will end via decision again.

I understand that you're annoyed and somehow furious towards the Paul Brothers because they are indeed setting up their own fight, but we should understand as well that if we're on their situation, I bet we will do the same thing and only grab a fight that gives us huge chances to win while taking advantage of the fans and fan bases on the internet that is supporting us.

But believing that Tommy can knock Jake Paul out or at lest defeat him by a way of unanimous decision? Well, that's quite possible indeed but the chances are somehow slim because if you truly watch boxing and watch their fights, you should know by now that Tommy can't really defeat Jake Paul.

I hope Tommy Fury will defeat Jake Paul and teach him a little lesson on humility, but since it is most likely not happening, I hope that at least Tommy will give Jake a run for his money.

Although I'm not a fan of these boxing battles of celebrities, the match could potentially be fun if both are really in their best condition and would slug it out in the ring like real fighters.

Fury's girlfriend has already given birth. So there's no more excuse with that.

I think you will be hard pressed to find many people who actually think Jake can beat Canelo, even including Jake fans unless they're kids who just don't know what they're talking about. I'm sure Jake probably doesn't even believe that either and just said it out of bravado and to grab headlines (which it did). Maybe Jake is aiming to working towards a fight with someone like him at the tail end of his career but I very much doubt he would have any serious plans to fight him any time soon. It's probably not a fight Canelo would take either.

Jake did knock Silva down but he didn't KO him.

Fury's girlfriend has already given birth. So there's no more excuse with that.

That is actually a much bigger excuse :D Pregnant wife is only about bringing things she wants, being a parent is much complicated. First days and months is the time when parents are most wanted by the child. Not only physically as a helper, but mentally also. Who needs money and a fights against a douchebag, when you are missing moments with your new-born. Specially if it is a girl, daddys little princess :D

Does the winner gets a bigger cheque? Then I hope Tommy wins, because he needs $ on diapers, princess costumes, castle, pony and diamonds :D But frankly, I expect Jake to win and I wish for that. I only want to see how his trashtalk continues with Dana White after another win. Wanna see how UFC respond and what would be changed.

I think Jake Paul will win here, Tommy Fury perhaps not ready for this fight mentally as he has somethings to keep him busy in personal life.

Arthur Beterbiev though, inserting his name: Artur Beterbiev would accept Jake Paul fight in seconds and says 'give me a call'! (https://www.dailystar.co.uk/sport/boxing/artur-beterbiev-jake-paul-fury-29077044)

Quote
Artur Beterbiev has urged Jake Paul to call him and arrange a bout after responding to a taunt from the YouTuber,

'The Problem Child' has infuriated the Russian WBC, IBF, and WBO light-heavyweight world title by saying he'd rather take on Beterbiev than his compatriot Dmitry Bivol. It's quite the claim, given the 38-year-old's punching power has seen him win all 19 fights via knockout.

So any case, this might end Jake Paul ascend to this whole exhibition matches. So it's better to stay away from Arthur, it's not a good call for Jake Paul next.

It would be nice if Fury knocked out Jake, it would shut his mouth and he could safely return to beating up old people. ) Fury is certainly not a top fighter, he knows how to behave in the ring. It’s good that she has already given birth, but now he can talk about the fact that he doesn’t get enough sleep because of the children crying at night. ) I can’t say that I’m looking forward to this fight, I’m rather just wondering what Jake will be capable of in the ring with a boxer.

The hate is real, both fighters promised to knock out each other comes Feb 26 they almost comes to a blow on their first face-off, and they mocked each other, there's no respect between the two we cannot blame them they troll each other for two years so in the coming press conferences I expect a lot of thrash talks and mocking between the two

This is the video of their first meeting

No doubt about that as well because Tommy is indeed not ready for this fight, not just mentally but physically as well. I bet he haven't have any rigorous preparations since the fight has been officially announced because he was busy lately and I reckon, he didn't expect that he will this kind of pressure where his family is pressuring him as well that he got to be fighting with his best.

I won't be surprised about that mate as Jake Paul will remain as is because no one from the inside the league will give him a chance to fight towards the rankings and be a full pledge boxer. And also, Jake wanted a money magnet fight and fighting a low-level inside his bracket won't get him interested. And wait, fighting Beterbiev? Oh please, I hope that will materialize so that we will have a new sight to see where he will be the one that will be kissing the canvass.

Personally I think you're wrong.  Tommy Fury to me doesn't look like a polished professional fighter.  He's also been injured a lot recently if you're to believe why he hasn't fought Paul already...  I'll probably be putting some money on Jake and feeling good about it, but who knows, maybe I don't know anything about boxing.  :)  It will be entertaining to say the least and I'm surprised how friendly everything has been leading up to the fight other than some petty shots online.  I look forward to seeing how it plays out.

For betting purposes, it will be a wise move if you will bet towards Jake Paul rather than betting for Tommy Fury and I think most of the avid fans of boxing out there will be agreeing with me on this one. Although some people are not fond of watching Jake Paul's fight, it's somehow undeniable that we can see some reels about him because he is breaking some headlines lately especially after he fought and defeated Anderson Silva who is not that new in the boxing anymore. That's why it's really hard to side with Tommy in this fight.

I think I’d rather be betting on whether or not this fight takes place. Tommy has ducked Jake so many times now, it seems more like he’s trolling Jake by accepting these fights. If they do fight though, I don’t think Tommy has a chance. I was watching some of his fight videos and he really doesn’t look like a pro fighter. Jake will probably be able to knock him out at which point I think KSI or Nate Diaz would be the next fights to make.

Fair point, and for that, Tommy still has another month to decide if whether he will continue to fight Jake or not. I know that this fight has been inked already but considering Tommy's past decisions towards this fight and Jake Paul in particular, it's not that far that he will make a run again and leave Jake in the air with the thoughts of finally having a bout with Tommy. But in any case, if this fight really pushes through, Jake Paul will eventually defeat Tommy Fury, no doubt.
Tommy is nothing compared to Jake Paul, so I’ll be rooting for Jake Paul too and leave Tommy in defeat. But if ever he’ll pull out from this fight again, that will only tell how coward he is so I guess he will really pursue this game especially that he’s now more motivated to fight because he’s now a father to his newborn daughter. Still, despite of the obvious result for this game, I would still love to watch these two inside the ring.

Expected for many fans that they choose Paul over Fury because he is famous also to many hype videos spreading about his trainings that's why they think about he have great advantage on this fight. But we shouldn't forget that Tommy Fury is experienced fighter as well he trained very well so we cannot take this easy including Paul because he might get defeated for expecting to much and taking this fight for granted. Maybe he's inspired about his daughter but it could also a distraction since maybe that can affect's Paul's training.

Can't wait to see who's gonna win the fight, and that's correct fans will obviously choose Paul since he is much more famous than Fury but it's a spotlight for him if he ever wins. In terms of the stats, Fury is much ahead of Jake but this will determine their abilities, preparation, and performance on the day of the fight.

Tommy is not nothing he has a good record but the people he has boxed do have a bad record between them but he is Jakes hardest opponent. I think the back up Mike Perry would be a harder fight because Mike Perry will definitely go the distance but Tommy Fury has not been tested so we do not know what his chin is like.

Jake Paul is 25 years and Tommy Fury is 23 years old, considering some physical factors and previous matches Fury might emerged the winner but due to weight and age advantage I won't be surprised seeing Paul winning over the fight, although Fury history has a better chance than Jake. So if I where to bet I would placed Fury to take over the fight against Paul.

Could the above data just summarized information about the matches?

Undeniable that Jake is strong he  prove that on his past fights but Tommy Fury is professional boxer with smooth record with 50% K.O percentage for sure this will be heavy opponent for Jake to defeat. I will choose fury for this match since I think he's record/experience and youth can give him more better chances to be the winner on this match.
He packs a punch. Tommy idk really because I haven't paid attention to him but I'm willing to bet that he will have a very bad time fighting Jake. As much as we hate to admit it Jake is an experienced fighter by definition, and he's not sloppy in the ring either. If this was a fight against a pro boxer that is not past his retirement like most of Jake's opponents this will not end well for Jake. But seeing as this Tommy guu haven't had any professional fights himself, couple that with your aforementioned weight and possibly reach difference and it's easy to predict that Jake's bagging this win.

I think that is the catch here, it's exhibition match and if you are willing to pay the ticket to either watch it live or PPV then it's a win for Jake Paul and Tom Fury.

It could only become a thing of the past if there are no fans going to buy the tickets, unfortunately that is not the case. They are good at hyping this kind of fights and that is why there are fans that is going to purchase and watch no matter what.

But even so, I believe Jake Paul will never allow that to happen since he knows in himself that he’s a better fighter than Tommy. And we can really see it from his previous fights that he really had the spirit of a professional boxer, that’s why Tyson told his brother to make this fight a serious one so he can beat Jake Paul.

If Jake had the spirit of a professional boxer, then he would have started boxing with professionals long ago, but instead he is looking for obviously weaker opponents to amuse his pride. Perheps Fury will be the first equael rival for him.

Fury is young and strong, besides I think he has a little more experience in boxing, and unlike Jake's previous opponents, he still has a well-placed punch. Also, brother Fury will help prepare for the fight, share a few tricks, I hope.  ;D The exact date of the fight is already there, I hope that nothing else will prevent this fight from taking place.

Jake Paul is a pretty boy influencer who cares more about his image than his boxxing career, his skills or even his fans. I have long since disliked him for his attitude and his self-absorbed character.  No matter how good the odds anyone gives him, I will never bet on him to win. Boxxing is a serious competition sport and it should be taken in with utmost dignity. There are way too many egomaniacs who pretend to be good boxxers just to have a fanbase who will give them the attention they want.

Also, brother Fury will help prepare for the fight, share a few tricks, I hope.  ;D The exact date of the fight is already there, I hope that nothing else will prevent this fight from taking place.

If Jake really wanted to be a professional boxer, he would have started practising when he was a kid. Going against a professional boxer, that has trained for 10-20 years is just stupid. He could start fighting professional boxer with same record as he has. Dont expect him to start fighting against top10 of cruiserweight in his late start of boxing career. Nobody fight big names from the beginning, and he does not have time to build a career or record to meet them. Nor he wants to do it, because he wont earn from it. He would better fight a veteran (who isnt less experienced as younger) and make a name, get experience and later face someone serious, instead of fighting against TopTort777, Inwestour or other professional no-names that are in the beginning of the career also :D

P.S. If you think that Tommy is more experienced, google his opponents record. Fury record 8-0 is fake, made against trash. That what would Jake had if he would fight against boxing professionals from the very beginning. What is better to have? A victories over Andrejevs, Ide, Binienda, Krajevskij or Silva, Woodley?

I can also sense that there is also chances that Tommy can knock Jake Paul out because even his brother who is a heavyweight champion of the world admitted that Tommy had hit and hurt him. But even so, I believe Jake Paul will never allow that to happen since he knows in himself that he’s a better fighter than Tommy. And we can really see it from his previous fights that he really had the spirit of a professional boxer, that’s why Tyson told his brother to make this fight a serious one so he can beat Jake Paul.

There's no stopping this fight anymore it's already a done deal unless one of them got injured, this fight is a big leap for Jake or he will be exposed as someone who is picking his opponent, if Jake Paul wins the boxing community will change the way they look on Jake Paul, he's been despised for facing old and worn and has been MMA's because Tommy is on another level but I still pick Jake Paul to win, because he can knock out people even if those he fought are old and fighters whose career are already fading.

I still don't get why people claim Jake Paul is fighting nobodies, of  course he is he's new to the sport. Name me any other boxer that started fighting the top fighters at the start of their career? Usually, boxers pad their record by fighting nobodies. That's part of the business to build up the hype. However, you've got to give credit where it's due, Jake Paul is fighting people way above the normal level at this stage in his career. Tommy might not be the most experienced or even the best of boxers, but he's got a name attached to him which if Jake Paul beats him, will propel Jake's career forward by quite some margin.

It's not a done deal until both of them step inside the ring, and that bell goes. There's been numerous times that a fight has been called off due to medical issues, including a few times actually inside the cage in MMA when entering it. So, I wouldn't count your chickens yet. Anything can happen, and they'll be training leading up to it, and training is usually where you get your injuries.

I believe this match will prove how good fighter is jake paul, because obviously his opponent has good history as well. Well i know jake paul already fought an ufc fighter and he knocked it out but now obviously this time it's different in my personal opinion because Tommy can really box and has been practicing for it for ao long now.. so surely he already knew so much stuff about boxing compared to jake, i mean like how to defeat and to get the weakness of his opponent since that's the most important strategy.

Another boring cash grab.  It's not even good boxing just filling entertainment gaps and people are willing to pay for it.  I don't get it, what is the obsession with watching Paul box?  Fundamentally it's not even good boxing to watch.  These sub par amateur or entertainment fights hopefully will be a thing of the past soon.  It's getting tired.
Even though the fight is only aimed at fighting over some money, boxing fans will definitely always be able to watch the boxing fight.
What's more, those who really like to bet on boxing will definitely bet on the Paul vs Tommy boxing match.
If I want to make a bet myself, I prefer and bet the win on Paul.
So don't think that this fight is just a joke and it's not good to watch because we can watch it for entertainment and excitement.

Clearly it's a cash grab, but that's ok for me.  Nowadays there aren't really any boxers that I'd want to watch.  There is no Mike Tyson, George Foreman, Evander Holyfield...  It seems like the sport hasn't had a real legendary heavyweight boxer in a long time.  It makes the sport hard to follow for a casual watcher.  At least with Jake Paul you have a guy you can follow that's doing things.  He's also getting a lot better and I think when he knocks out Tommy Fury he'll finally get some respect as a legitimate boxer.  I actually think Jake Paul is a lot better than people give him credit for and I wouldn't doubt it if he holds a real belt at some point in the future.

Jake Paul certainly has a chance of winning a fight against Tommy Fury primarily due to the difference in weight, but he will also have to fight with a young boxer for the first time, a fight with Gibbo can not even be taken into account, and this is not in his favor. However, both boxers cannot be called technical and in this sense they are at the same level of training, but still TNT is not an MMA fighter but a professional boxer and this can play a cruel joke with Paul.

This time is different, yes, but it's still the same because Tommy Fury is not a decent boxer or we can't even call him a bonafide boxer as Tommy nor Jake Paul is currently not on any rankings because their fights are like exhibition fights even if it's contested professionally. I know there will be a lot of people who will argue with me with that, but it is what it is.

Now, I know Jake Paul is good and somehow already experienced enough to keep up with real boxers in the industry but this bout will not show how good he is as in the first place, he is not up against a good boxer.

I think I’d rather be betting on whether or not this fight takes place. Tommy has ducked Jake so many times now, it seems more like he’s trolling Jake by accepting these fights. If they do fight though, I don’t think Tommy has a chance. I was watching some of his fight videos and he really doesn’t look like a pro fighter. Jake will probably be able to knock him out at which point I think KSI or Nate Diaz would be the next fights to make.

Fair point, and for that, Tommy still has another month to decide if whether he will continue to fight Jake or not. I know that this fight has been inked already but considering Tommy's past decisions towards this fight and Jake Paul in particular, it's not that far that he will make a run again and leave Jake in the air with the thoughts of finally having a bout with Tommy. But in any case, if this fight really pushes through, Jake Paul will eventually defeat Tommy Fury, no doubt.
Tommy is nothing compared to Jake Paul, so I’ll be rooting for Jake Paul too and leave Tommy in defeat. But if ever he’ll pull out from this fight again, that will only tell how coward he is so I guess he will really pursue this game especially that he’s now more motivated to fight because he’s now a father to his newborn daughter. Still, despite of the obvious result for this game, I would still love to watch these two inside the ring.

I guess there's still a good chance that Tommy Fury will behave childish again and leave Jake Paul hanging when their schedule is drawing near but thinking about it thoroughly, Tommy might face Jake eventually this time because the money he that he will have in this bout will be a good thing for his family especially after the fact that his girlfriend have just bore their child. But the result will be the same as speculated, Tommy Fury will lose by a TKO or KO.

If Jake really wanted to be a professional boxer, he would have started practising when he was a kid. Going against a professional boxer, that has trained for 10-20 years is just stupid. He could start fighting professional boxer with same record as he has. Dont expect him to start fighting against top10 of cruiserweight in his late start of boxing career. Nobody fight big names from the beginning, and he does not have time to build a career or record to meet them. Nor he wants to do it, because he wont earn from it. He would better fight a veteran (who isnt less experienced as younger) and make a name, get experience and later face someone serious, instead of fighting against TopTort777, Inwestour or other professional no-names that are in the beginning of the career also :D

P.S. If you think that Tommy is more experienced, google his opponents record. Fury record 8-0 is fake, made against trash. That what would Jake had if he would fight against boxing professionals from the very beginning. What is better to have? A victories over Andrejevs, Ide, Binienda, Krajevskij or Silva, Woodley?
In fact, I don’t think that Fury is much stronger than Jake, there is a ring for this, they will already figure out which of them is stronger there. And it's understandable why Jake needs this fight and this victory, because Fury does not have high-profile victories and maybe he is not so dangerous, but for Jake this will be an important victory OVER THE BOXER, if he wins of course.

I understand that for Jake this is like a hobby that he is very interested in and maybe he would like to be a professional and fight on equal terms and the toughest fighters, but the reality is that he is not ready for this, because for this you need to live on a ring and besides that he needs a lot of things, for which he is obviously not ready. I would like Fury to win, because if Jake wins, he will scream about it everywhere, about how cool he is and how he can even beat a boxer, and not just old people.

Weird turn of events for Chisora to get up there. I must say, despite what might happen on the night there's no dull moment with Jake Paul's events. Not sure why Tommy didn't show up, I haven't really been following. Shows, a sign of weakness in my opinion though. He might have the attitude of he'll just turn up on the night, and knock Jake out, but he probably knows that Jake is actually pretty good at getting into people's heads, and purposely avoiding that just kind of admits that you'd be suspect to that.

Chisora is a good sport though. Keeping the fans entertained as always.

True, winning against Tommy Fury brings Jake Paul a recognition of beating a real boxer even though Tommy Fury isn't a decent one.  But I think Tommy Fury gives risk to Jake Paul than any other fight Paul has. 
Tommy Fury even though not a really good boxer is still very young, has power and probably have the same skill as Paul if not a little less.

Tommy Fury even though not a really good boxer is still very young, has power and probably have the same skill as Paul if not a little less.
Mike Perry is the backup for the fight and I think he brings more respect because of his reputation in MMA and bare knuckle boxing. Mike is a boxer and a good one he was known for his boxing instead of his wrestling. He does not quit and fights until the end. Tommy Fury will probably be worried about being clipped and will look to fight technical which could mean a boring fight. I cannot see Jake pressing Fury because that is not how he fights he looks to counter punch whenever the other fighter overextends. Most of his knockouts are from counters because it is easier to knock someone out when they have thrown a punch then it is when advancing. Tommy is a good boxer but he has not fought much he has been doing tv instead. He could be very rusty in the ring and that could make him hesitant too and contribute to a boring fight.

I think Tommy will knock out Jake Paul if he is on his best day but I worry that he is not because of the time he has had out doing tv instead of boxing. He has the power and the speed to beat Jake but he needs to be on his A game because Jake has proven that he can knock out people. The Woodley knockout was the most surprising because Woodley has a chin.

It appears that Tommy Fury is learning the tricks to win before the fight begins from his brother Tyson hehehe. I am only speculating about this, however, not appearing for a press conference to cause an opponent to be angry might be something Tyson Fury might do. Jake Paul might have forgotten that the Gypsy King is always with the family first.

https://i.postimg.cc/3wgKNNxk/D75-CB3-AA-2475-43-F0-9-A6-C-008-BA23539-E8.jpg

Jake Paul wasn’t happy to learn that his upcoming boxing adversary Tommy Fury skipped out on their first pre-fight press conference.

During a recent press conference, Paul unloaded on Fury for no-showing to promote the fight.

“He’s a flake,” Paul said of Fury. “He’s not a serious businessman, he’s not a serious fighter. I’m gonna prove that. That’s why this fight is called ‘The Truth’, because the truth’s gonna come out and he’s gonna have to pay for all the times he’s pulled out…

“It’s disrespectful. There’s some of the biggest names in boxing, some of the biggest promoters in the world, some of the most influential people in the world, one of the greatest countries in the world…and he doesn’t show up because of a private matter… it shows me he’s scared. He said he didn’t need to train for this fight, but meanwhile his excuse first was that he needed to train extra for this fight…it’s typical Fury stuff… I like Tyson, but the dad and Tommy, it’s typical from them.”

According to Tommy's promoter they gave some vague 'personal family issues' or something. That could mean anything from a dead parent, ill child, or he's just had a row with his girlfriend and she's thrown a strop... or more likely it's just an excuse as to why he can't be bothered turning up to the press conference. The last excuse for missing the previous press conference was he needed to train. Tommy isn't exactly an entertaining character and I dare say he's a little dull so he's not going to shine in these media promos and he probably knows that, but he should be doing his bit to promote the fight which he's done very little so far. I wonder if Tommy is just getting an upfront fee or is he also getting some of the PPV backend? If he isn't he probably won't have any incentive to promote the fight since he's getting paid regardless. I'm really hoping he's not going to flake cos I really wanna see this fight. I can't see him walking away from the amount of money he's going to be getting though. Win or lose it's still a life-changing amount and probably the most he'll ever get from boxing, especially if he loses.

Oh, and I'm glad Chisora is getting a bag to promote fights in Saudi but I hope they don't employ him again. He can barely speak let alone promote something. It doesn't look good.

This is fighting you just underestimate a fighter because that could be the beginning of your weakness in the fight by being overconfident of one's self. We shouldn't be surprised endn up seeing Fury knocking down Paul in Saudi come Feb 26th.

I will not be surprised because Tommy is a boxer he can deliver a knockout and I will not be surprised if Paul knocks out Fury because he's been knocking out fighters and there's no doubt about his capability to deliver, both fighters are challenged on this fight, Jake Paul because he is finally facing a real boxer and Tommy Fury because he is fighting a Youtuber who surprise the boxing world with his power and charisma, one's zero is gonna go here and one's reputation will be tarnished here.
Of the fight of Jake Paul, I am really excited to see this fight, the stake is really high for both fighters.

If Tommy Fury failed to appear on the fight night twice when they were scheduled to fight, you tend to underestimate the situation whether they whether they will be fighting if they schedule to fight once again and that is the only curiousness everyone here is having. It is not about a big championship bout and still it is able to gather an audience simply because Jake Paul who is not a conventional boxer challenges a legit boxer while the entire boxing community is mocking Jake Paul's skills while they fail to sign a contract to fight him ;).

Tommy failed to appear at their 1st fight and their 2nd fight conference. It shows that he does not take boxing seriously and I know the reasons why he could not attend the fight because he was refused his visa but I thought he would have known that sooner then he did because you can get a  usa visa sooner then he did. Sports people are usually given some leeway too. I think they could have got around that if he applied for it sooner and disputed it but he left it to late. Now they are not fighting in usa there should be no more excuses and if he pulls out of the fight again I think the promoters should boycot him because he is wasting fans money and the promoters time.

I think Tommy Fury gets the win but not turning up to the press conference is just childish if he had serious problems with his family then that is ok to miss it but if it is a minor problem he should be a professional and appear. He can cut it short if he needed but instead he left the fans and journalists hanging.

I hope that Tommy Fury is dying in the gym right now, that is the only acceptable excuse for not showing at face-offs. Tommy wants to focus more in training, then loosing time trash talking with Jake during conference. On the other hand, Jake is the only one now who is trying to sell their fight. If this fight really happens (which I start to doubt), wish Jake gets bigger purse.

Dont want Jake to fight Derek Chisora. Because I believe their fight is going to fixed. If Jake wins, Chisora is turning into a clown. He is sort of a old boxer with sound name, who is there only to make bigger sales, and he is not aimed to win.

Dont want Jake to fight Derek Chisora. Because I believe their fight is going to fixed. If Jake wins, Chisora is turning into a clown. He is sort of a old boxer with sound name, who is there only to make bigger sales, and he is not aimed to win.

Same here mate, I sure do hope that he's literally doing what he is saying and not just making up excuses again just like he used to in the past. And speaking of his unprofessionalism in the recent face-off, my doubts are starting to get bigger and bigger as their schedule is fast approaching because of what he did just recently and I can't honestly deny that at the back of my mind, I'm already expecting the situation where he will suddenly withdraw from the fight.

I hope that Tommy Fury is dying in the gym right now, that is the only acceptable excuse for not showing at face-offs. Tommy wants to focus more in training, then loosing time trash talking with Jake during conference. On the other hand, Jake is the only one now who is trying to sell their fight. If this fight really happens (which I start to doubt), wish Jake gets bigger purse.


Turns out that's the actual - or at least alleged - reason why he didn't show up as he didn't want to break from training:

Quote
Tommy Fury has explained why he no showed the launch press conference for his upcoming clash with Jake Paul. Fury says that he ‘didn’t want to break camp’ so close to the contest and denies that it has any bearing on whether he will turn up on fight night.

https://www.express.co.uk/sport/boxing/1733138/Tommy-Fury-Jake-Paul-press-conference-no-show-Saudi-Arabia-boxing-news

That's why I hate the so called 'family issues' excuse as it just turns into the boy who cried wolf. So now family issues could mean anything from a dead family member to they just can't be bothered getting out of bed and any excuse in between. Now when people do have genuine family emergencies or whatnot people are going to be sceptical. Sure, Tommy has to train but if Jake can take a day off to make it out there then so can Tommy. It's not like one fighter is getting an advantage but Tommy certainly is if he neglects promo duties to get some extra hours in whilst Jake is doing everything to sell the fight. That doesn't seem fair to Jake to me. Tommy needs to do his bit as well. The least he could have done is do the conference via video link. They should start docking fighters pay by x amount for every part of their contractual obligations that aren't met in promoting the fight.

Why will someone want to pull out of a fight after accepting to fight and I understand that has been the case with fury but I think his already doing more of the training and that's one excuse he has pulled for not coming out for the conference and I really don't see the possibilities of this fight holding but I really would love to watch thia match and if it would fixed then I think Paul should give him the benefit of celebrating his unborn child 😂.
I'm already seeing fears in the eyes of fury and I hope his name plays out for him this time.

Tommy knows Jake will just keep his mouth open talking shit whether he is there or not so Tommy gives the mic to him all the way. And indeed he talk alone lol

But this fight I think will push thru, they already done deal so it will happen no matter. Jake is just not happy when this conference should have been a wild hype if Tommy comes which Logan will probably tie Tommy's shoe lace as well.

Tommy Fury boasts that he has a great amateur record but I just saw this comes out in my feed it's about an article and a video on Tommy Fury's amateur background and based on the review of the article and my own view this does not look good for the younger Fury

Footage of 17-year-old Tommy Fury leaves fans concerned ahead of Jake Paul fight (https://www.sportbible.com/boxing/tommy-fury-footage-concerns-fans-jake-paul-700201-20230208)

Even his fights in the professional are not good all his opponents are patsies, he fought fighters that do not fight back or do not have punches that can hurt, so this fight against Jake Paul is the first fight where he will fight a skilled fighter who can duck, counter punches and with posses good power in his punches.

Jake Paul is similar like Tommy Fury, his fight is full of cherry picked and not really a real boxer. I don't think Jake Paul can duck, he mostly throw random punch and make sure his punch will hurt his opponent. At least both of them are in the same level, so the fight can't be predicted which one will win.

Jake Paul can easily lose if he fight with a boxer who have a good dodge and technical skill e.g. Canelo, but yeah it doesn't make sense for new boxer fight with an Ex-Top 1 P4P rank.

I don't think Tommy beat Paul. It's Tommy who ducks Paul afaik, as he avoided Paul twice since 2021 with a rib injury excuse and then another visa issue excuse.

Over time Jake Paul had gained high confidence in his skills after beating some old dude but he did what he did like any boxer who picks opponents. This time Tom is really afraid of Paul for not showing up. They are both big talkers but at least Paul always does what he promised to do.

I doubt Jake Paul will ever choose a real boxer to go against. He's out there to pad up his stats and collect for payday, and not really live up to the code of fighters of the sport. Tommy Fury is the same as him, and they're just looking to collect money from people that wants to watch this clown show of them.

Jake Paul gathered some of the mechanics of boxing along the way. He knows how to evade punches, but he's not really good at it. Line him up against an amateur boxer who's had his time in the ring and you'd see Paul get knocked out and caught off-guard by that amateur. Well might not be knocked out because that guy has a strong chin but still, in a fair environment I'll take an actual amateur boxer against this guy any day.

Yes mate, of course ;D Jake Paul will be sleeping peacefully on the canvass if he's caught off guard with the likes of Canelo who's punches are very hard to predict but I don't think that will happen though even if Jake Paul has been calling champions like Canelo. Still, he's way too out of league to call such names if he can't even fight and defeat a Bonafide boxers.

About this fight, hopefully this two will clash once and for all to settle their nonsense rivalry. But I surely love Tommy Fury's antics because he kept on teasing Jake Paul and yes, just recently, he gave Jake Paul a headache for not showing. Hopefully he can face Jake and give a good fight, I just love seeing two nonchalant people fighting each other even if they believe they are a true boxer hehe.

Tommy Fury went low claiming family issues and then saying he was busy training a few days later. How can you ignore the media and not turn up when you knew that you had to do these talks to the media? I thought this was a contractual obligation and they have to do certain things how did he get away with it? I wanted Tommy Fury to knock out Jake Paul and expose him but I think from avoiding Jake Paul leading up to the fight I think Jake Paul might be in his head and I think Jake Paul could be the winner because Tommy Fury is a boxer and he has done these things before. He has never avoided the media or confrontation with his opposite fighter until now. I am wondering if he has not been training seriously or has left himself go while he was on reality tv shows and now that he has gone into camp he is worried about his fitness levels.

Jake Paul is in peak condition and if Fury is not at his peak I think Jake Paul knocks him out. It was only a week or two ago I thought Jake would be the one getting knocked out but I am not liking the look of Tommy Avoiding Jake Paul it sends the wrong message imo.

Tommy Fury's actions and behavior are questionable we have never seen a fighter not attend Press conferences I think he is losing confidence Press conference face-off is very important and this is where the Press promoted the fight and gives insight into both fighters' condition.
There's no history of Fury not attending conferences but on a very important fight of his career, here he is avoiding the very important part before the fight, he'll have to attend the weigh-in its a must, and the boxing community will not accept another excuse for the fight not to continue.
Tommy is not like his brother, Tyson who loves and thrives on Press conferences and face off.

I just check Tommy Fury's record as I am not really that familiar to him and previous opponents most of them are on a lose streak or new professional boxers with an exemption of Daniel Bocianski with 10 wins and 1 lose when they fight though he win that via points. Even Jake Paul's matches were exhibition matches, his opponents were not some usual mediocore most of them are MMA fighters with an actual combat experience though that was not their specialty and might have a training that last a couple of months I really think Jake Paul would dominate this fight with a knock out in the end.

Are you new to boxing? There's been quite a few no shows to press conferences in the past few months alone. Fighters will try get out of them in any way they can if they know there's no advantage to them being there and they're not the ones getting paid on the back end. Dillon Danis and Dillian Whyte, have all skipped out on them recently. If you're not a confident trash talker and you're not getting any of the PPV money there's no real motive to showing up.

I just check Tommy Fury's record as I am not really that familiar to him and previous opponents most of them are on a lose streak or new professional boxers with an exemption of Daniel Bocianski with 10 wins and 1 lose when they fight though he win that via points. Even Jake Paul's matches were exhibition matches, his opponents were not some usual mediocore most of them are MMA fighters with an actual combat experience though that was not their specialty and might have a training that last a couple of months I really think Jake Paul would dominate this fight with a knock out in the end.

They're just journeymen to pad his record. It's pretty much standard practice these days and Jake has been selective with his opponents in the start too which is a wise decision, but I certainly think this is going to be Tommy's first real test with something actually on the line. One thing that has surprised me is Tommy's confidence. He seems 100% sure he's going to comfortably beat Jake even going as far to say himself that he will quit boxing if he loses. I'm not sure whether he will stick to his word or not but if he does lose he'll never live it down as a pro boxer so quitting might be his best bet and just pivot into being a model or social media star or something. Personally I still see this as 50/50 fight and I can't pick a winner. I'm not sure I can see Jake knocking Tommy out and I don't think Jake will outbox him either so I think it's more likely to go the distance. If it does I'd probably back Tommy on points and that's why Jake is going to need the KO. I guess if he can ko Woodley and knock down Silva he can do the same to Tommy but Tommy has youth on his side and hasn't been KOd yet, at least not publicly.

Between the two Jake Paul's opponents are more battle-tested than Tommy Fury's opponents they may be old and almost wash up, but do check out their names they are once considered elite and top fighters in the UFC, and check both Fury's and Jake's knockouts how they deliver it, Jake's delivers great knockouts and he faced opponents who can punch and receives punches compared to Tommy's.
The hate between the two is real so I'm 100% sure that it will end in knockout and probably Tommy will get knocked out here, but of I doubt if the Fury family will disown Tommy because they also know that Tommy is no match against Jake, and they did it to motivate Tommy, he needs all the motivation that he can get, it's only more than a week before the biggest fight of their respective careers.

Jake is also the one who keeps pushing for this fight which kind of really speaks how confident he is with his boxing already. Jake is bigger and also influential to the boxing promoters. He fought several fighters who are stronger in thier prime which is sort of training for him.

Disowning a family member because he lost in a boxing match is adding insult to injury. Thats not cool. I don't think that would be the case. But it will encourage Tommy to win.

Tyson Fury has been known to make a mockery of them, I remember the bat suit in particular. However, he's said multiple times he thinks they're a load of rubbish. Obviously, that's where he makes his money, but ultimately Tommy Fury is completely different to that of his brother. He doesn't have that wit about him, and while he might have charisma, it's in a different way compared to Tyson.

It's pretty 50/50 I'd say. I don't think there's going to be domination from either side, think it might be a close fight. Tommy Fury might get dragged through the mud because of his social media stardom, and the fact he's fought largely nobodies, but that doesn't mean he's not a good boxer. I've seen him perform poorly in boxing, but I've never not thought he wasn't talented.

The press conferences? I wouldn't say the batsuit was a mockery. In fact, it's those sort of stunts you should be doing as press conferences are there to try sell the fight. You don't have to do something outrageous but you need to grab some headlines or at the very least try use it to get in the other fighters head. Like you say, Tommy doesn't have the gift of the gab like Tyson or Jake so they're not going to be good for him. There's very few people who can dominate them like McGregor and it's clear Jake is trying to emulate him in that regard.

It's pretty 50/50 I'd say. I don't think there's going to be domination from either side, think it might be a close fight.

I've seen him perform poorly in boxing, but I've never not thought he wasn't talented.

From what I've seen I haven't seen him display anything special but he's not as bad as people make out. The trouble is it's hard to gauge because he's only fought journeymen  who haven't really challenged him so this is the fight we're going to see what he's made of. The pressure is certainly on Tommy though.  A win for either of them is huge but a loss for Jake won't end his career.

Indeed a huge step and chance for Jake, but he is not going to make it. He does not have a dream, what every boxer has - to become a champion. Boxing for him is a bit more than passion, it is more like a work. I think that with first opportunity, he would follow his brothers path - creates a brand and starts its promotion. YouTube and boxing would be his first audience-clients.

Frankly, I did not understand how and why he would get a ranking. To get a rank you need to beat someone who rank. Does Tommy has a worlds rank? According to boxrec, they both already have ranks.

He's already said it's his dream to win a title. A bit of a lofty one but I guess you have to set your sights high. If he keeps performing as he has and getting better with every fight who knows where he can go though. If Jake has goals of becoming one of the biggest combat sports athletes on the planet ie someone like McGregor you don't really need to do anything else, though I'm sure he will continue to cross promote things and get involved in overlapping ventures as well.

It is said that Jake is on worlds place #379 / 1,162 place and  on #52 / 188 in USA. Tommy is #363 and #45 in UK. Dont know what kind of rating it is, but somehow they are rated.

Did not know that Jakes aims to become a champion. Like he really said he dreams to get one of WBA, WBO, IBF, WBC and Rings belts ? The guys there are doing professional boxing for 10+ years and had years of amateur career. Jake is "a little bit" late to become a champion imho.

I just check Tommy Fury's record as I am not really that familiar to him and previous opponents most of them are on a lose streak or new professional boxers with an exemption of Daniel Bocianski with 10 wins and 1 lose when they fight though he win that via points. Even Jake Paul's matches were exhibition matches, his opponents were not some usual mediocore most of them are MMA fighters with an actual combat experience though that was not their specialty and might have a training that last a couple of months I really think Jake Paul would dominate this fight with a knock out in the end.

But the thing is MMA fighter is different than a boxer.  They have different disciplines and practices.  A new professional boxer or boxer that have lots of losses are still a boxers unlike MMA.  With Tommy Fury's fight, he is matched with a legit boxer while in Jake Paul's resume, those aren't boxers, Paul is fighting aged fighter that is not a boxer in a boxing rule.  I think, Paul's opponent records are way worst than Tommy Fury.

But of course at the end, we have to witness which one of them is a better boxer, I have no idea who has the advantage since both of these guys fought non-quality boxing opponent, except for the last fight of Tommy Fury but I am still in doubt of the result on that fight though.

Did not know that Jakes aims to become a champion. Like he really said he dreams to get one of WBA, WBO, IBF, WBC and Rings belts ? The guys there are doing professional boxing for 10+ years and had years of amateur career. Jake is "a little bit" late to become a champion imho.

But the way he is going with his career, it looks like he will just keep on dreaming.  Well, with his earned money from exhibition fights probably he can buy one.  ;D

Frankly, I did not understand how and why he would get a ranking. To get a rank you need to beat someone who rank. Does Tommy has a worlds rank? According to boxrec, they both already have ranks.

When you wear a globe and go inside the right and fight, one of your motivations is to become a champion, all boxers dreamed of becoming a champion and a World title is their ultimate goal, there are fighters who are called journeymen but they too dream and have it in their mind to fight for the title.
And I don't think he is too late to become a champion George Foreman won his second title at 46 years and 169 days old, with the right team, training, and motivation Jake Paul could become a champion and he will have the last laugh.

If Jake Paul wins it seems he will soon receive a world ranking and he will become eligible for a Boxing World Title fight. This has to be a big motivation & driver after his recent break up with Julia Rose.

Indeed a huge step and chance for Jake, but he is not going to make it. He does not have a dream, what every boxer has - to become a champion. Boxing for him is a bit more than passion, it is more like a work. I think that with first opportunity, he would follow his brothers path - creates a brand and starts its promotion. YouTube and boxing would be his first audience-clients.

He's already said it's his dream to win a title. A bit of a lofty one but I guess you have to set your sights high. If he keeps performing as he has and getting better with every fight who knows where he can go though. If Jake has goals of becoming one of the biggest combat sports athletes on the planet ie someone like McGregor you don't really need to do anything else, though I'm sure he will continue to cross promote things and get involved in overlapping ventures as well.


I'm one of those who believes that he is doing great and better in every fight, his last fight although on an aging Silva still, he shows a dangerous form, he knows the fundamentals and basics but getting hit by a bigger puncher is one of the things that we all want to see, he got hurt on some of his fights and he managed to stay on, now Tommy can be considered a hard puncher but not skilled than Jake Paul.
I hope to see Tommy landing big punches to see if Jake can take big punchers from real boxers with good knockout records, win or lose I'll closely watch how he reacts to big punches, I believe win or lose he'll continue to fight, both of them.

Indeed Jake Paul gained boxing skills. Looked like a decent fighter now that can best most of amateurs. Just think about it, he had his first boxing fight in 2018. 5 years has passed already. In 5 years, if you train more or less regularly, and just go to gym to punch bag, you could perform really well. He has created a role of a joker, careless kid. People follow that and forgot that he is training for 5 years already. Of course there are people who can train for ages and still wont be able to throw a simple combo, die after minutes of working on a bag, and be afraid to spar.

Right now I dont cheer for Tommy or Jake to be KOed. I would prefer fight to go almost full distance, to let them test themselves fully, and in late rounds those who is less prepared gets knocked down. I think that would be fair.

Jake seems to be a more dangerous puncher than Fury so Tommy just needs to have a solid defence, which he should have or a much better one given how long he's been boxing compared to Jake. I think this is the realest test for both of them on so many levels. If Jake gets a KO then that will shut a lot of doubters up, and if he beats Jake then that's another step on to bigger things for Tommy. There's so much more for Tommy to lose though so all this extra pressure adds up. I wonder if there's gonna be any press conferences soon when Tommy flies over. That will be another opportunity for Jake to apply some pressure and get in his head.

I'm sure there's some site that collects them all or groups them into overall categories but there's lots of different governing bodies so it's best to check their individual pages. WBC is the board that have offered the ranking for this fight: https://box.live/world-rankings/wbc/

When they say he will be ranked I'm not sure exactly what that means or what the criteria is for getting on the ranked list. Maybe he will go into the top 100 or 50 or something. Hopefully they don't mean the top 15 which is usually the best of the best and those are the ones that can challenge for titles. Jake is a Cruiserweight I think and the lowest amount of fights I can see in the top 15 fights total. Someone just dropped out of the top 15 with only 11 fights so Jake has a long way to go but he could probably get there eventually.

We'll see that after the fight, but getting into the top 20 is already a big achievement for Jake Paul, compared to the top 10 in the Cruiserweight he is more popular and getting paid more than all the other ranking Cruiserweight contenders, after he got his rank, things will be tougher for Jake Paul he cannot go back fighting old MMA fighters
he needs to level up and fight boxers that are close to his rank.
He will shock the World if he landed in the top 5 and the Cruiserweight Champions might take him seriously, that's part of his dream, its a cinderella story for Jake Paul, imagine he brought something new to the boxing industry.
I wonder will his train take him to the Championship.

Jake Paul is not a serious boxer. The reason he is in a "Cinderella Story", as you say, is because he is a pretty little princess who has no substance, no real skill and obviously no honor, since he sold that for a cheap career as an social media influencer instead of seriously training to become a real boxer.

He has been fighting the weak and old for exactly that reason. Because he wants to get to the top the easy way while taking selfies. He does not care about skill or boxing.

Although I greatly dislike Jake Paul and his equally shallow and superficial social media influencer brother, Logan Paul, who as everyone remembers has no problem throwing away honor for social media likes (If you remember the Japanese suicide forest scandal). So obviously dishonor runs in the family.

But thats not news to anyone who knows me and my dislike for the Logans.

Boxing rankings have always alluded me. They've never really made any logical sense, and seem to be just some made up crap. Whereas, at least in the UFC you have to beat higher ranked fighters to move up, it seems in boxing you can continue to fight people below you, and go up. I ditched caring about the rankings years ago, at least in boxing.

I can see Jake being top 15 quality though. Obviously, I'm doing it by hearsay, and not actually relying on the official rankings there, but he has decent technique, and seems to have a dedication that goes beyond some of the professional boxers that have made this their life. 

Let's see if he gets past Tommy first though, if he doesn't that could be a serious spanner in his plans, because ultimately it's the first real boxer he's faced, even though personally I think he's more than satisfied with the quality of opposition this early in his career. Definitely, better than most boxers that look to pad their records.

Yes, it's fair to say that the rankings are not that really accurate and the basis isn't that kind of established to know how these boxers climbs the said rankings per governing body. But there are still some advantage of this rankings because if ever there will be a title eliminator or a challenge, we can somehow guess who will be the boxers as the ranks tells that they are next in line. For me, it's like a they are just queuing actually.

I wouldn't be too sure yet, stranger things have happened :P.

Hopefully, it's about time. I mean, it's not exactly Tommy's fault for the last one getting called off. He didn't anticipate getting refused a visa, and effectively banned from entering the country. Plus, honestly I don't think Tommy needs to be scared or anything like that. He's probably relishing the opportunity to make some serious money, and he'll gain quite a bit fame from this regardless how it goes.

He does need to avoid being embarrassed though, so there's always that aspect I suppose. Anyway, it's only confirmed when they've both entered that ring, and the bell goes, that's how pessimistic I've become with boxing :D.

Indeed because he will be matched with "evenly" talented boxer in accordance of his ranking.  One Jake Paul career pursue true boxers, I do not think he will stay undefeated.

he needs to level up and fight boxers that are close to his rank.

True that is why I stated, he will be match with boxers that has the caliber to be on that top ranking thus it will possibly mark his first defeat.

He will shock the World if he landed in the top 5 and the Cruiserweight Champions might take him seriously, that's part of his dream, its a cinderella story for Jake Paul, imagine he brought something new to the boxing industry.

Well, anyone does have their own comments about the upcoming fight between Tommy Furry and Jake Paul, and people will always find a way to make such comments. But, let's think of it, surely it's their own choice if they will set the price higher because they are also not forcing anyone to see their fight. They are just making the hype and marketing it as that's what organizers and boxers do, the fact is, they are just getting advantage of the situation because their fight has been criticized by many and that makes it more famous. The more haters, the more money. We are also the only ones who are feeding these nonsense so-called boxers to make a nonsense fight.

After all, it's just a business, there is much less sport here. Mauricio Suleiman announced that if he wins, Jake Paul will be placed in the official WBC world heavyweight rating (up to 90.7 kg). For Jake, this can be an additional motivation if he has such a goal, and if this does happen, then canceling fights in professional boxing will not work so easily. ) Fury continues to claim that he is a professional boxer and will knock out Jake in this fight.

Not to sound like I'm a Jake Paul Supporter but I think he does have some skill in him. I mean, He knows the game, he packs some punch albeit I wouldn't really compare him to pro boxers, and he gets wins. Honestly not a fan of his cheap tricks of only ever fighting people that are past their primes or that aren't great boxers in the first place, but he's got some skill and some boxing experience. The fight isn't officially sanctioned by any official boxing organizations anyways so I think it's only fine that he's able to fight and get bets placed on his side. I wouldn't agree with the Cinderella Story part though as per @goldkingcoiner statements, he pretty much had everything laid out for him and all he needs to do is to just sit in the front of the camera and act since day 1.

Not to sound like I'm a Jake Paul Supporter but I think he does have some skill in him. I mean, He knows the game, he packs some punch albeit I wouldn't really compare him to pro boxers, and he gets wins. Honestly not a fan of his cheap tricks of only ever fighting people that are past their primes or that aren't great boxers in the first place, but he's got some skill and some boxing experience. The fight isn't officially sanctioned by any official boxing organizations anyways so I think it's only fine that he's able to fight and get bets placed on his side. I wouldn't agree with the Cinderella Story part though as per @goldkingcoiner statements, he pretty much had everything laid out for him and all he needs to do is to just sit in the front of the camera and act since day 1.
Tommy Fury is a pro boxer and if he beats him then it is time to compare Jake Paul to pro boxers. I think Tommy Fury still beats him and I was hoping for it but the excuses from Tommy Fury and not turning up to the media talks is annoying so I have converted slightly to wanting Jake Paul to knock out Tommy Fury but I do not think that will happen I think this fight will go to a decision which is better for us because if Jake Paul does win we should have many rounds to judge him against a pro boxer and see where he is at with his skills. I think he will do well but Tommy Fury does have power and he does not like Jake Paul after Jake Paul insulted his new born baby. I do not know if that is going to get in the head of Tommy Fury and stop him from fighting a calm fight which could get him knocked out.

Well, anyone does have their own comments about the upcoming fight between Tommy Furry and Jake Paul, and people will always find a way to make such comments. But, let's think of it, surely it's their own choice if they will set the price higher because they are also not forcing anyone to see their fight. They are just making the hype and marketing it as that's what organizers and boxers do, the fact is, they are just getting advantage of the situation because their fight has been criticized by many and that makes it more famous. The more haters, the more money. We are also the only ones who are feeding these nonsense so-called boxers to make a nonsense fight.

After all, it's just a business, there is much less sport here. Mauricio Suleiman announced that if he wins, Jake Paul will be placed in the official WBC world heavyweight rating (up to 90.7 kg). For Jake, this can be an additional motivation if he has such a goal, and if this does happen, then canceling fights in professional boxing will not work so easily. ) Fury continues to claim that he is a professional boxer and will knock out Jake in this fight.

All these news and hype with the recent statement of WBC's president, then suddenly Tommy Fury will back out that will result to a cancellation of the fight. I wonder what would Jake Paul feel as his ambitions are shattered with Fury's selfish move ;D But seriously tho, I hope this fight will happen so that it will end much sooner because bouts like these are more like a circus rather than a real boxing entertainment.

Even if Jake Paul will receive his rankings after he defeat Tommy Fury, I doubt if there's any boxer out there in the upper rank that will give him a chance. Anyway, let's see about that in the upcoming months.

Jake Paul decides where his fate goes, he picks his opponents that he could possibly win over. I any upper rank picks a fight with him, he will just pause a bit and look at it closely and decide. He is calculated and he knows to himself he can defeat Tommy. He is always the one that will initiate and right now he had already chosen different fighters lining up for his cash cow promotion.

Yes, with the statement of WBC, I bet Jake Paul is already excited to finish off Tommy because he already knew that after the fight, another opportunity will open for him and at last, he will be in the rankings. It's still a long way though, at least now he knows that where he is going because he is now given a chance to fight for the rankings. By that time, I hope he will stop making circus fights.

I think the opposite, he is attracting attention to the sport and this means more money to whoever fights him, and if he beats Tommy Fury then an upper rank can challenge him and not come as a bully as Jake Paul will be ranked by then as well, and finally if you had the skill and power to beat Jake Paul and give him a beating why would you choose to not do it? Because if you do not take the chance and someone else does it not only you will lose the chance of earning a lot of money but you will also miss the satisfaction of bringing him down.

And why not if the money is right and the other boxer has the chance to make money, if I am a ranked Cruiserweight will challenge him it will boost my career, Jake Paul is a good feather in the cap of every Cruiserweight, imagine after a long journey you stopped the Jake Paul hype and that is something that will be attached to your career.
I guess at this point in time everybody wants Jake Paul's head, especially now that their PPV price is higher than professional boxers, it's about time that we take Jake Paul seriously.

current odds on Duelbits and stake.com

Duelbits
Jake Paul  1.60 - Tommy Fury 2.25

Stake.com
Jake Paul  1.61 - Tommy Fury 2.27

looks like despite Jake Paul's popularity, Tommy fury is still favoured to win(at least based on the odds). anyway, I understand that the odds do not dictate who will win.

edit: I made a mistake in this, I said, that Tommy was expected to win based on odds but I forgot that jake paul is the one favoured to win based on odds.

Both brothers have got fighting spirit Logan in wwe (he's great at it tbh) and Jake in boxing. I would say Tommy would win but if he's getting more money to lose the match than I wouldn't be surprised with result.
was there any news/rumours about Tommy fury getting more money or a bonus if he lost?

Tommy is also sort of a celebrity, Jake keeps chasing Tommy because of it also since he knows this will add to his popularity. But he may struggle to fight, Tommy is a real boxer and not a retired MMA. One KO loss for Jak, the jokes on him and he may really stop this circus act.

The circus act was able to book his own fights and not depend upon other promoters from the start and thus paving a way to other new comers who have the talent to promote themselves can follow the same path rather than relying on the third party promoter who takes the major chunk of the money the fighters make. Tommy is a boxer but remember he failed to show two times before, so this is not the fault of Jake Paul as boxers were avoiding him and hence he was matching with retired MMA fighters.

That's just rumours and there are no guarantees, according to news sources he will get $1m guaranteed if he wins that fight and an additional $500k from Jake Paul if he accepts the previous challenge at the risk of having to change his name to "Tommy Fumble" for a year if he loses. So it was illogical that he would get more money and bonuses when he lost, in fact they were risking popularity and who could stop the circus act.

That might not be a rumor as we know both of them are fighting for the money and not for the title.
Fury being in favored here, and in less than a week if there’s no drama and changes anymore, the fight will begin. This might be the end of the hype for Jake Paul if he loses here but of course the odds can’t tell everything and we don’t know what’s their plan for this, i guess we have to find this out.

If Jake Paul losses, it might trigger a rematch.  I do not think that they are only fighting for money, they are also fighting because of bad blood between the two had been running for some years.  But I feel that Tommy Fury took too long to fight Jake Paul.  He let Jake Paul to be molded and have good experience in boxing which may give advantage and make Tyson Fury the underdog in the upcoming fight.

Bad blood and thrash talking are not new in the boxing industry its part of the hype, we have seen it happen so many times like in the case of Wilder-Fury they also engage in heated thrash talks and they seem to hate each other before the fight but after the fight, they show respect to each other.
George Foreman for example regretted that he did not show respect to Ali when got knocked out he did not greet Ali and left the ring away, boxers after the fight ended their thrash talks and whatever hate they have, they will watch their fights when they are old and enjoy the drama that unfolded and will be satisfied that they have shown sportsmanship when the fight ended whether they won or not.

It is not impossible for the two to have a kind of under the table agreement, one which is not included in the official contract released for public scrutiny. Jake Paul has a lot of money. Tommy Fury is not as popular as him. Tommy's paycheck in this match is this big only because he's fighting against Jake Paul. So it is easy to suspect that Tommy could indeed be promised a bonus if he losses. What's a loss to Jake Paul anyway? Especially if it's worth $500,000 more or another $1m.

I think Jake deserves all the accolades and wins, his fighting skills has been nothing short of amazing, atleast better of than that of Tommy.
I am not a fan of either of the two though, as a matter of fact, I do not even subscribe to boxing so which ever one of them bags the money, it's all good for him.

Looks like we have a fight  8)
Tommy has boarded his flight & is en route to Saudi Arabia.

LETSSSSSS GET IT ONNNNN !
I wouldn't be too sure yet, stranger things have happened :P.

Hopefully, it's about time. I mean, it's not exactly Tommy's fault for the last one getting called off. He didn't anticipate getting refused a visa, and effectively banned from entering the country. Plus, honestly I don't think Tommy needs to be scared or anything like that. He's probably relishing the opportunity to make some serious money, and he'll gain quite a bit fame from this regardless how it goes.

He does need to avoid being embarrassed though, so there's always that aspect I suppose. Anyway, it's only confirmed when they've both entered that ring, and the bell goes, that's how pessimistic I've become with boxing :D.
Well, it’s an obvious reason once we see them inside the ring, then the fight will surely happen. But the question is if  Tommy Fury ready to beat Jake Paul since they have been exchanging negative words against each other since their fight has been decided. Jake Paul has already established his boxing career, as well as Tommy but based on what I have seen, Jake Paul seems to be the big favorite while Tommy marks as the underdog. But I can see that these two can make a good and interesting fight. So let’s see by then who will be the real undefeated and undisputed once these two big names finally meet inside the ring.

For me it is more interesting to watch how both fighters gonna act after the fight. How Jake is going to taunt Tommy and UFC if he wins, how ridiculous Tommy excuses would be, Tommy's father rage. Or how Jake is going to act if he looses. Will he ask for a rematch or excuses that "he is not a professional fighter like others".

From sports point - I wish Jake to win. He brings interest to boxing, new people into boxing. Maybe his audience or kids will sign in into boxing gym after watching his fight. I have never followed Tommy's career, but I dont remember his fights encourages others to google his previous fights, his media, life style and etc. With Jake - it is interesting to watch his trashtalk against Dana White. We might even say that Jake was one of those who triggered UFC fighters to ask for a better payment. Indirectly, he is also responsible for Francis Ngannou to leave UFC btw.

No no no... when this fight end, Jake Paul is still Jake Paul while Tommy Fury is still Tommy Fury, which mean if Jake Paul lose, his popularity will not reduced and same like Tommy Fury, if he either win or lose, he will not get a popularity and still become unknown boxer. Just take a look with McGregor, he don't have a clean record and he was humiliated by Khabib, but it doesn't make his popularity reduced and many people are really want to see him comeback in UFC.

this happens because people are aware that any fighter can lose a fight, it doesn't matter if it's a guy who comes from winning streaks, who is a guy who has a lot of strength, he will lose one day and even when he loses against fighter X it doesn't mean that he is weak and that fighter X is unbeatable, so people know that in each fight a lot can happen and it is normal for a fighter to lose the fight, this will not reduce his popularity, of course the disadvantage of suffering defeat and that in the next fights people will avoid betting on this fighter who lost the fight, in the case of paulo's fight, in my opinion he will win this fight

No, that's bullshit. There is no such thing as a losing bonus unless you're using it as a euphemism for as bribe and Tommy has already said he wouldn't take any amount of money to lose. The whole bribe nonsense is just idiots on the internet who can't accept the fact that Jake is KO-ing people. Tommy really isn't going to want to lose this fight for multiple reasons and isn't going to take this fight lightly. If he loses then his career is likely over before it even got started.

Or how Jake is going to act if he looses. Will he ask for a rematch or excuses that "he is not a professional fighter like others".



It's an interesting point. It could turn into a WWE-style circus if Jake wins and Tommy's dad rips his shirt off again. I'd just like to see some respect between them especially if it's close or a draw. I'd like to see that if one of them wins too. One of them is going to have to give the other props if they win.

Duelbits
Jake Paul  1.60 - Tommy Fury 2.25

Stake.com
Jake Paul  1.61 - Tommy Fury 2.27

I was looking for the same match in betnomi, and they have the next odds:

Jake Paul  1.57 - Tommy Fury 2.3

Wouldn’t surprise me if Fury pulls out again. His girlfriend is due to have her baby soon, not that he needs an excuse to run away from a fight ;)

The excuse to walk away is still there, but since he is getting a new member in the family for sure Tommy needs this fight money, so, he shouldn't walk away this time.

I don't know what to expect from this fight, always feels like Jake Paul Fights are rigged, and he has talked about it, he is trying to clean his reputation by proving how his fights are real, but we can't be sure that he isn't in steroids or some drugs to be a super human under the fight. I just don't trust that guy.

Tommy needs to earn money for his upcoming child so I also think he will continue the fight.  Besides they have created a lot of buzz to this fight, it will be a waste if the fight will be cancelled.

I don't know what to expect from this fight, always feels like Jake Paul Fights are rigged, and he has talked about it, he is trying to clean his reputation by proving how his fights are real, but we can't be sure that he isn't in steroids or some drugs to be a super human under the fight.

Well, we can expect a not so polish fight on this one.  Might be a brawl or something.  If this fight isn't rigged then we might possibly see Jake Paul losing the fight since he will be fighting a real boxer now that has somehow a strong punches that has the ability to KO the opponent.  But I think there is a huge chance that Paul will win this fight.

Both brothers have got fighting spirit Logan in wwe (he's great at it tbh) and Jake in boxing. I would say Tommy would win but if he's getting more money to lose the match than I wouldn't be surprised with result.
was there any news/rumours about Tommy fury getting more money or a bonus if he lost?
That's just rumours and there are no guarantees, according to news sources he will get $1m guaranteed if he wins that fight and an additional $500k from Jake Paul if he accepts the previous challenge at the risk of having to change his name to "Tommy Fumble" for a year if he loses. So it was illogical that he would get more money and bonuses when he lost, in fact they were risking popularity and who could stop the circus act.
That might not be a rumor as we know both of them are fighting for the money and not for the title.
Fury being in favored here, and in less than a week if there’s no drama and changes anymore, the fight will begin. This might be the end of the hype for Jake Paul if he loses here but of course the odds can’t tell everything and we don’t know what’s their plan for this, i guess we have to find this out.

If Jake Paul losses, it might trigger a rematch.  I do not think that they are only fighting for money, they are also fighting because of bad blood between the two had been running for some years.  But I feel that Tommy Fury took too long to fight Jake Paul.  He let Jake Paul to be molded and have good experience in boxing which may give advantage and make Tyson Fury the underdog in the upcoming fight.


If Jake Paul losses in this fight, I have a feeling that Tommy Fury will not give Jake a chance to have a rematch and will just let Jake chase him until he gets tired. Jake Paul can't do nothing about it as if I'm correct, there is no rematch clause written on their contract right now because Jake Paul's camp is just confident enough that he got some good chances compared to Tommy. But let's see about that soon.

Tommy Fury would want the money from the rematch he knows that this is probably the biggest fight he will ever be involved in and if he wins this fight he will the a side in the rematch and he can demand more money and I think most boxing fights have a clause for a rematch especially the big fights like this 1.

I think a rematch will happen if Jake Paul wins because it is a win win for Tommy Fury he has not been doing much boxing and he probably is never going to have many other big fights and he gets paid and has the chance to make history being the 1st one to knock out Jake Paul. If he loses he can go back to reality tv and make a career out of that. Same as Jake Paul if the boxing career fails he can go back to Youtube.

I agree, Tommy Fury indeed needed a big money like this one and will still likely agree with a rematch if in-case he gets fortunate and win this bout because his girlfriend just bore their daughter recently. But in this case, I think there's no rematch clause included because they didn't even specify what is written on their contract or if they have one. But if ever the Jake Paul will win, I doubt there will be a rematch because Jake Paul will now be leaning on the ranking side as the governing bodies has made a statement that he will be given one once he win this bout.

He is not short of money but he will want to secure his daughters future and I think that is a good reason to accept the rematch but as I say I think it will already be included in the deal that both fighters sign. If Tommy Fury wins then he will demand more in the rematch and if Jake Paul wins he will continue to be the A side and will continue to grow his career. Tommy Fury has not taken this fight for his career he has done it for the money because even if he beats Jake Paul it does nothing for his career. He is the professional boxer and a lot of people still view Tommy Fury as a Youtube boxer. The odds have Jake Paul as the favorite which is surprising.

If the event gives them huge money then I think a rematch will happen.  Take note, it isn't the boxer that is deciding the fight, it is the promoter and/or the manager.  All the boxers do is train and be prepared for the upcoming fight.  All the discussion and deals is done by the Promoter/Manager so it is a blessings for a boxer if they find a clever promoter that knows how to build a great boxing career

Even with no rematch clause, the game is governed by money so if huge money comes in this fight there is a huge chance for a rematch or a trilogy.

Ah, the two classic baseless excuses: fixed fights and roids. Stop chatting nonsense about something you know nothing about. You sound like every other dolt who just parrots rubbish when a result goes a way they don't want or can't accept. There's absolute nothing suspicious about Jake's wins. He's just KO-ing people and is better than people expect. He's also vada tested. If he was on steroids he'd probably be a lot bigger than he is. He has a pretty average build to be honest; nothing superhuman about him. If you see him next year and he's twice the size and jacked maybe then that might be a cause for concern.

Jake has a rematch clause so Tommy will be contractually obligated to rematch Jake if he activates the clause. Jake would probably only do the rematch if it's close or Tommy wins on points or something. Not much point going again if he gets battered.

I think a rematch will happen if Jake Paul wins because it is a win win for Tommy Fury he has not been doing much boxing and he probably is never going to have many other big fights and he gets paid and has the chance to make history being the 1st one to knock out Jake Paul. If he loses he can go back to reality tv and make a career out of that. Same as Jake Paul if the boxing career fails he can go back to Youtube.

How would his first loss and to a so called 'youtber' be a win-win? The only win here is the money he's getting but he likely won't get more for a rematch especially if he loses. Jake probably won't rematch if he wins either. He'll just move on to the next step. No point treading water going sideways when there's bigger and better opponents that will progress his career.

For me it is more interesting to watch how both fighters gonna act after the fight. How Jake is going to taunt Tommy and UFC if he wins, how ridiculous Tommy excuses would be, Tommy's father rage. Or how Jake is going to act if he looses. Will he ask for a rematch or excuses that "he is not a professional fighter like others".


It's an interesting point. It could turn into a WWE-style circus if Jake wins and Tommy's dad rips his shirt off again. I'd just like to see some respect between them especially if it's close or a draw. I'd like to see that if one of them wins too. One of them is going to have to give the other props if they win.

I did not mean to turn that whole situation into WWE circus, I dont expect them showing each other respect. I only want to see how other promotions and sports react in case Jake or Tommy wins. If Jake wins, he definitely gonna try to make Dana White angry again. UFC fighters gonna ask for raise again or show willingness to switch to boxing. To keep audience and fighters, UFC gonna either make more big fights, or make them fight more often. For me the outcome of this fight will be influensive on UFC. I am not really interested in their fight, I am interested in changes in boxing and UFC that will follow.

Every boxing fan dislikes Jake Paul because they think he is making a mockery of the sport. He comes from a non combat background and starts knocking people out and claiming he can beat Cancelo. That is why if Tommy Fury can knock Jake Paul out he will always be known as the boxer that ended Jake Pauls streak. I do not think you can take that away from him if he does that. If Tommy Fury loses then he loses credibility but I see him as a reality star more then a boxer so I do not think it will affect him much and he gets his biggest pay check of his career. I think that is a win - win.

I don't think this fight has really any bearing on the UFC. Jake will continue to be a thorn in the side of Dana regardless. He's probably more of a threat to the UFC with his own MMA promotion where he's branding it as a 50/50 split between them and the fighters which is obviously an attempt to chip away at the UFC's monopoly and could actually work if they gain some ground as fighter pay is obviously one of the biggest issues with the UFC right now.

I wouldn't say every fan dislikes him. I was pretty ambivalent towards him but he's certainly earned my respect with his performances and growth and I think it's going to be interesting to see how far he can take this. If he loses to Tommy then a lot of the hype will die down but if he wins then his stock will go up ten fold and who knows where he goes after this. I don't think he's making a mockery of the sport either. He's certainly shaking things up but he's clearly dedicated and serious about the sport. His over-confidence may rub up a lot of people the wrong way but that's how you grab headlines. Also, whilst he hasn't been a boxer for very long in the scheme of things, he and his brother do have combat experience in wrestling going back to high-school/college which is where most combat athletes start. There's also been a lot of fighters that have started off in either wrestling or boxing and moved over to MMA or vice versa. Either way, I don't think it matters if you keep winning or just giving impressive performances.

Looking at Tommy Fury's record I don't see anybody who can be remotely considered a challenging opponent. Washed up former MMA fighters would have been a massive step up for him. His record is padded with easy wins and now it seems he is ready to cash out. For Jake this is just another name to add to his resume. Even if he wins I still see his career as a joke. Boxrec has these guys ranked at #349 and #378 so a win for either guy won't make them a legitimate contender but they can at least keep the hype going for future celebrity fights they can sell on pay-per-view.

The argument of Jake Paul not taking the sport seriously is just not accurate. He's dedicated the last few years of his life to the sport. He might've not been a boxer when he was a youngster, but he's still quite young, and obviously has a passion. We all discover our passions at different times in life. Making a mockery would be setting bad match ups, and claiming he's the best in the world. I haven't seen him claim that once.

Jake Paul is actually a decent boxer too. I don't know how far he'll make it, but it's quite clear to me that he has some natural skill, and he's developed that via training. I know why this opinion is lingering around, since I wasn't a fan of Jake, I don't think many people were when he first entered the sport due to his reputation on Youtube. However, for the most part he's actually presented himself quite well, looks somewhat humble, and delivers in the ring. You can't ask for more than that from a boxer. He's not going to be a world beater, but I don't get the obsession that everyone has to be. I support fighters that have no chance of ever holding a belt, simply because I like their style or personality, and Jake Paul is no different there.

He's also put a ton of eyes on the sport, which has to be at least respected.

I'm sure he is serious not just in boxing, he even organized events and sign a deal with PFL as well. The brothers are smart enough to make money out of thier network and skills.

When I saw he won fights against MMA athletes, I end up betting for him and won. He just doesn't get respect from the boxing community though, to them he is still the Disney boy they know in the TV series. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LQiChfUAbb4

After he beat Tommy Fury things will be different and he will shut many mouths that think he is just there to make money and have fun, Jake Paul is the pioneer of this, a Youtuber turn boxer who beats respected fighters, he is just too smart that he knows who to fight and how to fight them.
This fight will bring Jake to another level and people will take him seriously, people are just curious when he is starting out now they will have to take him seriously on his goal to become a true boxer, his giant leap will start on this fight.

This seems like a lazy criticism to me. I wouldn't call either Silva or Woodley washed up and they are both former champions. Whilst it's true they were both older and retired from MMA beating former world champions is still an achievement. Silva had already moved to boxing and had two wins in 2021. Both were only less than two years retired and from MMA which is much tougher than boxing. Now all Jake has to do is to prove that he can do it to someone his own age.

Well put. This fight is probably the crossroads for both fighters. If Jake wins then naysayers will have to accept that they're wrong or at least admit he's got what it takes to be in the ring. If he loses then they hype train will instantly be over for Jake in the world of pro boxing and he'll probably just have to stick to being one of the best youtuber boxers. The KSI fight will still probably happen in the fourth quarter of this year win or lose.

As everything in the world is balanced, then in case Jake looses and his hype train ends, hype train must have started somewhere else. I think that Tommy Fury wont be the one to take over that hype train. Jake Pauls hype train wont end. I think that a loss might even help him. It will show that his fights isnt fixed, he can also lose. Jake is actually in a win-win situation. If he wins, he will continue to hype, if he looses, he can call for a rematch, tell everyone he has restarted, "new me". Audience love that kind of stuff on YouTube.

Only idiots think his fights are fixed. It's the same sort of kids who cry that a premier league match is fixed because one of the big teams lost and it fucked up their accumulator  :D. Not a single person who knows what they're talking about would say his fights are fixed  but if they were Jake's opponents are in the wrong career and should take up acting because they'd be a shoe-in for an Oscar.

Tommy isn't going to go on to become the talk of the town merely over a win. He should win and most in the boxing world expect him to so a mere victory isn't that much to brag about, but if he loses he's probably done in boxing. Or at least should be. Nobody will take him serious and even Tommy himself has said he would quit. I don't know whether he would be true to his word but he'd still be able to make a good career in youtube boxing.

Yet lots of people still cant believe he has beaten Woodley fairly in first fight, and believe in conspiracy theories (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zbx7MSsTx5s) that Woodley gave him a sign and on purpose ate that punch :D People find it hard to admin they failed when they said Jake is zero in boxing :D Or, it is simply cool to scold celebrities and have opposite opinion / do opposite of what they do.

"Tommy would quit" - like he was a serious boxer with ambitions of a champ  :D

One thing I noticed the other day was Tommy has freakishly long arms:

https://pbs.twimg.com/media/FNwj_xzX0BAihCs.jpg

He's got the arms of an ape. They almost look photoshopped.

He's also got a pretty powerful jab on him: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uGlvw_V5WkQ

Definitely interesting to see how Jake will defend against those.

"Tommy would quit" - like he was a serious boxer with ambitions of a champ  :D

Well I think that's his point - he might as well call it quits if he can't beat a so called youtuber. I'm still 50/50 on this fight. Can't see either of them getting a KO and I think both of them will be fairly apprehensive especially in the earlier rounds so I think a decision is on the cards.

I might not like Jake Paul but I do not think his fights are fixed. He has knocked out his opponents cold and no one can act like Woodley did because he fell on his face without any reaction or trying to put his arms out to break the fall. Who is taller Tommy Fury or Jake Paul? The numbers I see on the internet say different and I never trust them because boxing often inflates their heights. If Tommy Fury is the taller boxer and he has long arms like in the picture I think Jake Paul could struggle. Jake Paul likes to fight at a distance and uses a jab but he will not comfortable at distance with those long arms. Tommy Fury could win on points just by jabbing at Jake Paul all night and Jake struggling to close the distance.

I might not like Jake Paul but I do not think his fights are fixed. He has knocked out his opponents cold and no one can act like Woodley did because he fell on his face without any reaction or trying to put his arms out to break the fall.

I don't think I've known of anyone inflating or lying about their height. That would be pretty hard to get away with and I think would be pretty obvious. Tommy isn't taller but I thought he was. Jake is an inch taller and Tommy has 80 inch reach compared to Jake's 76.

Any boxing media that alter thier stats like reach advantage will not be trusted anymore if they do alter those data. I don't see anyone doing that though because there is already Wikipedia where people are also going to check. And Holy how, a 3-inch advantage by Tommy, he really might punish Jake for what Jakes has been saying.

Disney boy's nickname is "The Problem Child" lol it speaks for itself as he calls out all his ancestor's spirits to put a curse on Tommy in his tweet.
But yep this is gonna be a good fight. Jake is in good shape. If he can take punches from Tommy, he can lure Tommy to engage and all Jake needs is to counter.

Tommy: Better reach, better looking, better nickname, better built, better name, much less drama and posing.

The choice is obvious if you ask me.

IMO it's Fury all the way, win by KO. Jake Paul has no incentive here. He's fighting for the show, to be popular, he wants people to talk about it. Even if he loses he's already made money on the fight from all his tweets and stuff. Fury seems to be in for a real fight as he wants to get that official rank and climb the ladder.

One thing I noticed the other day was Tommy has freakishly long arms:
Fair play to the lad, he's got some proper arms on him hasn't he? That could be a game changer, I actually thought Jake Paul ahd a chance here, but being a boxer Tommy Fury definitely knows how to box behind a jab, we haven't really seen anyone against Jake Paul who really utilized a jab. I actually can't get over the arm span on him :D. Boxers dream that is.

This is why I'm a little bit gutted, Tommy seems to have everything going for him, but he's never really caught the eye. Glimpses, and he looks really good, but other times it looks like he's just doing what he needs to do, but not really pushing the pace. I'm not sure if it's because he's afraid of living up to the name, and therefore doesn't necessarily try as hard as he could.

The only thing is; looking back at Tommy's fights he doesn't actually sit behind his jab all that much, despite his massive arm reach. So, not sure how well he'll use it in this fight either.

You can't be sure of that. Both of them have KO punch, you can expect them to be very cautious in the ring and they are going to be very defensive in the first few rounds. Anyone of them who gets eager and takes risky action might be the one who will fall so they best be patient in waiting for whoever will be carried away by their hate will be in danger.  Jake plays this game most of the time, the kind of trash talk that Connor does.

While I would like for Tommy Fury to win this fight so he can at least delay a little bit the hype train that Jake Paul is on, of all the factors that you mention the only one that has any impact on the fight is the reach, and that would only be true if Tommy Fury knew how to use his jab effectively, besides the only one that has something to lose here is Tommy Fury precisely because there are many people like you which expect him to KO Jake Paul, and if he losses or he wins by decision fans will begin to question him, so this could affect his performance as he knows that nothing but a complete victory will satisfy his fans.

Well you've better put a lot of money on it if you're that sure given Tommy is the underdog. Most of the stuff you listed doesn't matter when you're getting punched in the face and your brain is rattling around in your skull. It depends how Tommy utilises his advantages to be honest. Both fighters seem very confident, though I guess they have to be. No point showing weakness or worries even if you seriously have them.

IMO it's Fury all the way, win by KO. Jake Paul has no incentive here. He's fighting for the show, to be popular, he wants people to talk about it. Even if he loses he's already made money on the fight from all his tweets and stuff. Fury seems to be in for a real fight as he wants to get that official rank and climb the ladder.

Of course Jake has incentive. He isn't going to want to lose and lose that zero on his record. He also wants to go on to bigger and better things - KSI, and probably even fighters like McGregor and Mayweather. He mentioned he's working on a fight with Nate Diaz next. I think that would be a decent fight for him to take in boxing but he's on about doing a double fight: one in boxing and the other in MMA but the latter seems a bad idea to me. The more Jake keeps on winning though the more people he will have tuning in who want to see him continue that and of course the haters, naysayers, sceptics and doubters who will want him to lose. He seems to be serious about challenging for titles as well and that will quickly evaporate if he can't even beat Tommy. If he wins though he's been promised a ranking so that's one more step in the right direction for him.

One thing I noticed the other day was Tommy has freakishly long arms:
Fair play to the lad, he's got some proper arms on him hasn't he?

Maybe Tommy was going easy in the other fights knowing that they were all mostly journeymen and probably wouldn't bother him too much? I'm sure most of them knew or accept that they're there just to be a glorified sparring partner. Either way, both fighters now have the perfect stage to show the world what they're made of and shut up the doubters.

C'mon mate ;D Let's just leave their nicknames alone because Tommy's nickname is not yet proved as TNT or as the bomb is really not popping these days. He sure got better built and reach which gave him an extra advantage over Jake Paul, but I believe this fight should've done much sooner because the earlier the better for Tommy as by that time, Jake doesn't have any experiences at all and what he had is just his mouth spitting nothing.

I think if we google, we might find a whole pack of a dynamite :D I've already found another TNT boxer - Tony Tucker (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tony_Tucker). Tommy Gun probably was already taken.

If someone think that his long arms and gorilla body gonna help him to fight Jake, than those quads are his weak point. He will run out of stamina quick imho, he will get tired quick. He looks like a guy from gym that only trains chest and biceps. Not the best combo for a boxer.

WBC already announced that Jake Paul is going to get a ranking if he beats Tommy Fury, now there's one guy who is not sold on the idea and openly opposed it and that guy is Dereck Chisora.

Quote
'Everyone should just drop the WBC and say, "I'm not fighting for it anymore". That's not fair. There's other boxers who have been slaving themselves, making weight, fighting and because he's boxed two fighters they give him a WBC ranking? No, it's unfair.

Dereck Chisora slams the WBC for promising to rank Jake Paul if he beats Tommy Fury (https://www.dailymail.co.uk/sport/boxing/article-11771703/Dereck-Chisora-hits-WBC-promising-Jake-Paul-ranking-beats-Tommy-Fury.html)

What do you think ranked WBC fighters take Chisora's advice, do you think WBC did the right thing in promising Jake Paul a rank in case he beat one professional boxer in Tommy Fury?

He is a strange shape because most of his mass is on the top but it has not affected him in previous fights so why would it affect him against Jake Paul who does not have the best stamina too? Anderson Silva pushed Jake Pauls to deep water and Jake looked like he was going to collapse after that fight. I think Tommy Fury who is a lot younger then Anderson Silva can push the fight more and stay fitter. I think that gives Tommy Fury the edge he has better stamina and he has power in his hands and could drain Jake Paul and then knock him out in the later rounds.

Right that's what I thought as well. The physique is awesome for that weight class. Tommy Fury with the coaches he has and the mentors backing him is my favorite as well. I don't know, but Jake Paul seems to be like someone who could lose his nerves when he loses control over the fight. If Fury boxes a professional fight with all the things he has learnt over time, Jake Paul is probably running into relatively easy hits.

Now maybe, maybe I underestimate Jake Paul's endurance and ability to take hard blows. From what we all get to see concerning his social media life, it is hard to believe that his preparation and concentration is at the same level as that of someone like Fury.

I don't agree that Jake Paul doesn't care. He is the kind of guy who would do anything for money for sure, but losing would make him feel hurt in his pride. I hope he gets smashed though as it is about time.

If Jake Paul losses in this fight, I have a feeling that Tommy Fury will not give Jake a chance to have a rematch and will just let Jake chase him until he gets tired. Jake Paul can't do nothing about it as if I'm correct, there is no rematch clause written on their contract right now because Jake Paul's camp is just confident enough that he got some good chances compared to Tommy. But let's see about that soon.

If the event gives them huge money then I think a rematch will happen.  Take note, it isn't the boxer that is deciding the fight, it is the promoter and/or the manager.  All the boxers do is train and be prepared for the upcoming fight.  All the discussion and deals is done by the Promoter/Manager so it is a blessings for a boxer if they find a clever promoter that knows how to build a great boxing career

Even with no rematch clause, the game is governed by money so if huge money comes in this fight there is a huge chance for a rematch or a trilogy.

Well, that only applies if Tommy Fury or Jake Paul got their own respective promoters that will order them to make a rematch or who to fight next. As far as I know, both fighters are flying solo and is a promoter on their own, so they aren't really under any promotional banner that will make them powerless but to obey from the command.

In this fight, we all know that this bout is quite personal for both fighters and if it weren't for money, I doubt a rematch will really happen soon especially if Tommy Fury will win.

I won't be betting on the fight. There's way too many unknowns, since we don't actually know the true level of Jake yet, although he has looked decent. We sort of know what to expect from Tommy Fury, but again that all depends on how Jake goes about the fight.

There's also the size difference, and those extra long arms of Tommy Fury against Jake who hasn't really had to deal with a sophisticated jab yet. Again, I'm not sure Tommy Fury is a boxer with a sophisticated jab despite basically being built for it.

I'll be tuning in though, and I think that speaks volumes of what Jake Paul has done. I don't usually watch Tommy's fights, but I've tuned into almost all of Jake Paul's. He definitely brings eyes to the sport, and while I wouldn't normally be excited for a Jake Paul match up, I'm pretty excited for this bout. Mainly, out of curiosity.

They just had their first face to face at the press conference: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ho4nda7fLJg

What I found funny/interesting is Jake proposed a double or nothing bet to Tommy that if he loses Tommy gets double his purse and Jake gets nothing and even had the contract/bet ready to sign: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zZClH_f-k9M

Tommy's dad John Fury was quick to accept quite vocally but Tommy didn't seem too sure and looks like he tried to start a scuffle to change the topic haha. Tommy has seemed very confident up until that. I guess if he was so sure he would gladly take the bet but I don't blame him if he doesn't. Potentially going home with nothing would probably be too much to handle.

Tyson is over there now so maybe his presence will add a bit of extra spice.

Lol I was about to comment about the all or nothing bet between Fury and Paul.  Paul seems agitated by the comment of Fury that it is an easy fight.  And that Paul will lost since he is now facing a fresh boxer and not a washed up MMA old players.  So Paul wanted to make a bet as you stated, the winner take all.  Now that sounds very interesting.

Just wow I hope they can carry the heat inside the ring, this is the most hyped fight of Jake because there are so many deals made, there's a promise of ranking and both boxers are motivated to beat the other, the bad blood is real, did you all notice the co-main event the Makabu - Badou Jack Cruiserweight title fight, it's hard to imagine a Cruiserweight championship fight relegated to a co-main event and the spotlight is on Jake Paul versus Tommy Fury fight.
But anyway I'll stick to the Paul-Fury as it attract the crowds and the PPV and gates sales.

This would be very funny for the loser who will go home with nothing except blacks and blues hehehehe.

I reckon the hesitation from Tommy was not because he was not confident. It was because he did not know what to tell Jake. This might be because it was not for him to make the decision. It appeared for me that it might be the father who decides and manages the financial decisions for this fight. Tommy can blame John on Monday hehehehehe.

The stakes are so high now in this fight it just keeps adding up because Jake Paul keeps challenging and baiting Tommy Fury, people will be excited to see this fight and the outcome, there are so many first on this fight, only two days before the fight I am more excited on the weigh-in and final face-off, I hope there are no more delays but I want more dramas and thrash talks because this fight thrives on the drama and thrash talks both fighters and their team delivers.

He didn't seem agitated at all. In fact, I'd say the opposite and he was just waiting for the right moment to propose the bet once Tommy admitted it's going to be easy. If Jake was worried there's no way he'd propose such a bet. Interestingly both have said they will do the all or nothing bet post-press conference. Whether they will or not is another thing as both will be weary about appearing weak or backing down but until they put pen to paper I don't think either will do it and it's all about grabbing headlines. If both are as confident that they will win then it makes sense but both of them can't be right and someone is going to lose unless it's a draw  :D.

They just had their first face to face at the press conference: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ho4nda7fLJg

What I found funny/interesting is Jake proposed a double or nothing bet to Tommy that if he loses Tommy gets double his purse and Jake gets nothing and even had the contract/bet ready to sign: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zZClH_f-k9M

Tommy's dad John Fury was quick to accept quite vocally but Tommy didn't seem too sure and looks like he tried to start a scuffle to change the topic haha. Tommy has seemed very confident up until that. I guess if he was so sure he would gladly take the bet but I don't blame him if he doesn't. Potentially going home with nothing would probably be too much to handle.

Tyson is over there now so maybe his presence will add a bit of extra spice.

Funny how Tommy is silent about their fight, how he barely response to trashtalk. How rages John Fury is over Jake, and how friendly Tyson Fury and Jake behave. Hole bunch of emotions in Fury family, ignorance, love and hate.

Somehow I feel that Tommy does not really wants to fight. Not because he is scared or something like that. But like he was dragged to that fight without much desire. Perhaps, that is due to influence of John Fury. It does not look like Tommy wanted to be a professional boxer when he was a kid.

His dad seems to be calling all the shots and admitted that he's the boss in Tommy's career and tells him what to do in an interview after the press conference: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CwFuSl6DnNM

Not sure I'd trust John's blind confidence here. Maybe Tommy doesn't care because he's getting a huge amount to fight win or lose. I heard he's getting between 2 to 5 million which is a life changing amount for him and that's a sum a boxer of his calibre would never get otherwise. He's basically been getting a few grand for his other fights. He was paid £11,000 to fight Anthony Taylor in 2021 and Jake Paul was the first person to pay him a decent wage and a career high for Tommy when he put him on the undercard of one of his Woodley fights and I think he got £10-20k for that. Jake Paul actually took a paycut to make sure all the fighters on his undercard were paid career-highs so you have to respect that. Not many boxers would willingly take a pay cut like that to make sure other boxers were properly compensated. Jake even paid the fighters on the undercard 50% of their purse when his fight against Hasim Rahman Jr fell through: https://twitter.com/jakepaul/status/1555900413832220675

Love him or hate him at least Jake is standing behind his mouth.

Lol I was about to comment about the all or nothing bet between Fury and Paul.  Paul seems agitated by the comment of Fury that it is an easy fight.  And that Paul will lost since he is now facing a fresh boxer and not a washed up MMA old players.  So Paul wanted to make a bet as you stated, the winner take all.  Now that sounds very interesting.

That's why there's a lot of people who supports Jake Paul because he got a good initiative how to turn the tides into his favor, he surely knows how to use it too well so that he will not be silence by any comments made by other camps or some speculative hypes. Jake Paul indeed got an extraordinary mouth for saying something like that out of the blue and with contract prepared which was really unexpected by the opposite camp as they are surely surprised about it. For that, Jake Paul deserves my thumbs up :D

Which is brillant, it's hard not to like someone willing to take a pay cut in order to feed other boxers which he thinks are getting under paid. That's brilliant. Alright, you could argue Jake Paul is already rich, therefore he's in the position to do things like this, where others aren't. However, he doesn't have too, and not many of the richer people before him did things like that.

I'm starting to become a Jake Paul fan, which is weird thing to be saying in 2022, when I didn't like his Youtube antics, and who he portrayed to the media all those years ago. However, to me he's really showing a different side to him, and I think I do believe most of what he has done in previous years was a character rather than himself.

I won't be betting on the fight. There's way too many unknowns, since we don't actually know the true level of Jake yet, although he has looked decent. We sort of know what to expect from Tommy Fury, but again that all depends on how Jake goes about the fight.

There's also the size difference, and those extra long arms of Tommy Fury against Jake who hasn't really had to deal with a sophisticated jab yet. Again, I'm not sure Tommy Fury is a boxer with a sophisticated jab despite basically being built for it.

I'll be tuning in though, and I think that speaks volumes of what Jake Paul has done. I don't usually watch Tommy's fights, but I've tuned into almost all of Jake Paul's. He definitely brings eyes to the sport, and while I wouldn't normally be excited for a Jake Paul match up, I'm pretty excited for this bout. Mainly, out of curiosity.

Same here, it's much better for me to keep a safe distance from betting on this fight as from my perspective, it's like a 50:50 because I really don't know who got the upper hand as both said boxers are difficult to fathom as of this time considering that they haven't made any legitimate fight yet that includes rankings. But for sure though, I'll be looking for the outcome and watch some reels from their fight, time is near.

Jake Paul has made a bet with Tommy Fury that if Tommy Fury wins he gets double the paycheck but if he loses he gets nothing. They both shaked hands on the deal so I do not know if that is legally binding but there is video evidence of it happening but both fighters look confident going into this fight. Tommy Fury does not normally get as angry as he was in the build up to this fight so I am excited to see if he can use that anger in the ring against Jake Paul.

It was the father's doing that influenced Tommy to be a boxer like his half-brother, Tyson. It's really seems that he doesn't have any choice but to follow his father's command because he doesn't want to be rejected from the family and he needed to be stronger as his Tyson is already making an example.

But in the first place, I reckon that Tommy doesn't want to participate in this bout. He was just forced to do it because he was given a warning that he's no longer welcome to the family if he's not going to do it and if he gets defeated, the father made a statement that he should quit for good in the industry if that happens. So, I'm thinking that Tommy is more inclined to the 2nd choice where he will be a free man and won't be forced to do such fights.

We all have to admit that Jake Paul is a great marketer. He does everything very smartly, he builds his career step by step and puts a lot of work into it. He is not a retarded youtuber, he is very clever.
Btw both of them have gone too far and this is a very serious match for both of them, I would say that this match will either end Jake's career or Fury's career. If Fury wins, he takes all the money, proves that Jake is a pussy youtuber that only fights retired elders, etc and additionally, he will become very popular, it will tremendously boost his career, profit, ego, everything. But if Jake wins, he will prove that he is not just an youtuber but a real boxer who is capable to fight against anyone and destroy them, he will shut Fury's mouth and destroy Fury's future. If Jake wins, he will boooooost his income cause many fighters will wish to fight with him and Jake will become 2x more popular. He will become a reason for media to generate tons of clickbaits and increase Jake's awareness.

I think that Jake will win this fight. He always chooses fights that he wins and he has hired professional trainers, takes training very seriously and is very responsible and definitely it was clear that Fury is not that confident in himself as he admits. I even think he regrets the day when he challenged Paul.

Which is brillant, it's hard not to like someone willing to take a pay cut in order to feed other boxers which he thinks are getting under paid. That's brilliant.

Jake Paul is a great marketer. While I genuinely believe he does all to boost his income in future and build himself, anyways, it's still good that he helps others and benefits the sportsmen.
Well, I'll never become his fan, I don't like these brothers but I think they are smart, especially Jake.

However, Conor McGregor will always be the best showman for me.

Seems Jake Paul is a good marketer/promoter. he sees things as an opportunity to heighten the intensity of the fight.  The winner take all deal will really take the audience attention, I wonder if it will propagate and be added on the contract.

Somehow I feel that Tommy does not really wants to fight. Not because he is scared or something like that. But like he was dragged to that fight without much desire. Perhaps, that is due to influence of John Fury. It does not look like Tommy wanted to be a professional boxer when he was a kid.

It seems so, if we listen and think of the context of Jake Paul when he is talking about Tommy Fury evading him many times, that he needs to raise the money to pay Tommy that Tommy got interested in fighting him.  But whether he is dragged to the fight or not, the contract is signed and Tommy Fury has to fight Jake Paul on the scheduled date.

Jake Paul does have a brilliant mind for making things possible. The tattoo deal he offered to Woodley seems to be a deal breaker. It's funny yet in the fighter's mind it makes them wanna prove something.

He does have the edge in the media and even in the ring after all, he became a real boxer after defeating big names. He might fight Mike Tyson too, this might need bigger funds for him.

Jake's doing the promotion thing right. You can make money off others but pay them fairly and what they're worth. Everybody he's worked with has sung their praises about the way he does business. He's even taking women's boxing to the next level and got both Serrano and Katie Taylor their highest payday selling out Madison Square Garden. Serano got a million minimum for that and women were getting paid peanuts prior.  I doubt Serano was even getting $100k before Jake got involved and guaranteed her a million dollars if she signed and he was true to his word.

Same here, it's much better for me to keep a safe distance from betting on this fight as from my perspective, it's like a 50:50 because I really don't know who got the upper hand as both said boxers are difficult to fathom as of this time considering that they haven't made any legitimate fight yet that includes rankings. But for sure though, I'll be looking for the outcome and watch some reels from their fight, time is near.

I think that's what makes this so appealing. Fights are boring when you know one fighter is going to go in there and blitz the other like Fury did to Chisora. I have no idea what's going to happen in this fight. Either could get KO-d, it could go the distance or we might even see an early KO. I just can't see either fighter knocking each other out but we know they've both got the power to do so but neither has been KOd or even knocked down yet. Both fighters also seem very confident which makes it harder to predict. The pressure is on Fury though and even he accepts that but does seem cool about it all but that could all crack as soon as he's in the ring.

Jake Paul has made a bet with Tommy Fury that if Tommy Fury wins he gets double the paycheck but if he loses he gets nothing. They both shaked hands on the deal so I do not know if that is legally binding but there is video evidence of it happening but both fighters look confident going into this fight. Tommy Fury does not normally get as angry as he was in the build up to this fight so I am excited to see if he can use that anger in the ring against Jake Paul.

Unless they both sign that contract/bet I'd just take it as hype. Whilst it's technically legally binding as an oral contract that's not how they do things in boxing and you'd have to sue the other if they didn't pay up and even then you could maybe argue it was never a legit proposition without the contract being signed (which Jake had ready).


However, Conor McGregor will always be the best showman for me.

Jake's rise reminds me of Connor back in the day. He's certainly following the McGregor playbook, but I actually think he could go on to be as big as him if he keeps winning. I dare say we might even see them fight each other at some point and I'd love to see that. Jake has mentioned recently his next fight might be against Nate Diaz and that could put him one step closer to fighting Connor. That fight would probably be as big as Connor/Mayweather so there's no reason why it couldn't happen. Connor just needs to run his UFC contract down and then just fight on his own terms.

I doubt the "winner takes all" bet will hold up in any court of law and I doubt if Tommy loses he'll be giving Jake a cent.  I guess we'll find out, as after seeing Tommy's fights I don't think he stands a chance against Jake.  Maybe I'm wrong though.  Jake's opponents haven't all been too great...

I think the Mike Tyson fight flew out the window when it became clear that they didn't really want to pay the cost to fight the boss.  Tyson isn't getting any younger and gave them a window where he would possibly be willing to fight.  They couldn't meet his contract demands so that fight went bye bye.  It will never happen.

I get that they had a few fights, but most of them were entertainment fights and nothing to do with real title chance. Like anyone who is on their way to win the real title, would simply destroy these two in a single round, without a doubt. I am not entirely if they are checked for juicing or not, they look pretty juiced from the photos as well.

This is actually a professional fight ;D

I think many boxers was start from fighting weak boxers until they're more experienced and then they will take a challenger to become a champion. The difference is many journalists doesn't care to follow the record when the boxers fight with a weak boxers, but since Jake Paul is famous and they can make a lot money, those journalists following Paul record from his first fight.

Lol Tommy Fury get heated by Jake Paul :D

So WBC created a special belt named "Diriyah champion" in this fight [1] the winner will able to get ranked up in WBC, maybe it might able to be included at 10th position. The winning method odds have been added, the odds for Paul to win via decision is 3.90x which I think it's worth to bet. Both of them have striking power, but I think they will able to survive until the end.

 There is a lot of hype around the fight, a lot of attention will be riveted to it, so everyone will try to survive to the end. I don't know who I would give the advantage in this fight, it's really hard for me to evaluate them before the fight, I think that they themselves will need some time to see what can be expected from each other. I would like the fight to end in a knockout to eliminate all controversial points with referee decisions. May the strongest win!

It's entertainment just like any other fight. It's basically just white collar boxing mixed with celebrity boxing which is nothing new. They have an audience and know they can sell tickets and bring in eyeballs so they are crossing over into new markets to capitalise on that. Youtubers are born entertainers and they know how to sell a fight. Just look at the numbers. They're getting paid more than pretty much all pro boxers minus the superstars like Tyson/AJ/Wilder etc but they'll probably get to those numbers if they continue to grow and market their fights as they're doing.

I am not entirely if they are checked for juicing or not, they look pretty juiced from the photos as well.

Come on now. This is just the standard armchair fan youtuber comment based on nothing. Neither of them look juiced up. They're both just trim and in good shape but are clearly not juiced up. This is what people on steroids look like:

https://pbs.twimg.com/media/FjAVEMQXgAEFtf3?format=jpg&name=small

They're also both vada tested and have been for years.

It's pretty much industry standard for new fighters to fight bums and journeymen early on in their career and makes sense. If you're a promoter and you have a new prospect it makes little sense to put them in the ring with someone who's going to beat them up. You need to dip your toe in the water and work yourself up to bigger fights.

It's not a top 15 ranking but a top 40. That makes sense as there's a bunch of nobodies in the top 40 with similar win records to that of Tommy and Jake so that's no real surprise. I think both of them could get into the top 15 with 2 or 3 wins though as there's a few people in there with only slightly better records in terms of fights and wins, but I didn't look into their opponents. They could have fought some decent people or been entirely bums.

Its great promotion for the fight, they want the fight to have importance in the eyes of the boxing community, there's added attraction if there is or are belts that are at stake, this belt is specifically designed for this fight alone, but I don't think it will add motivation for both fighters because both fighters already overflowing with motivation and hatred too.
So the winner will have something to commemorate and memorabilia on his table for this fight with this belt.

None of them are taking steroids they are professional athletes and that is why they look ripped what else do you expect from athletes which dedicate their life to boxing? I hate the discussion of steroids because most fighters are now tested and most of them test negative. Only a couple of them have tested positive and they are not normally taking steroids for their whole career but try to take them during injuries.

Jake Paul has made a bet with Tommy Fury that if Tommy Fury wins he gets double the paycheck but if he loses he gets nothing. They both shaked hands on the deal so I do not know if that is legally binding but there is video evidence of it happening but both fighters look confident going into this fight. Tommy Fury does not normally get as angry as he was in the build up to this fight so I am excited to see if he can use that anger in the ring against Jake Paul.

I am no lawyer nor do I have any kind of law degree or education but it would seem logical to me that even a verbal contract is a binding one. And the fact that they shook hands on that agreement and acknowledged AND that it will recorded on video is more than enough proof of a legally binding agreement. The bet must be honored. If the loser of the bet chickens out and tries to go back on his word, then those actions should have legal consequences for that man.

Not to mention the amount of honor and fans the loser will lose if he goes back on his word. People don't like liars like that who go back on their promises...

Can someone explain to me this new "entertainment boxing" thing? I get that boxing is watched a lot, I remember clearly when pacman fought mayweather and that was an insane period, definitely not something underrated, one of the most watched and all that. But this? This is basically a youtuber fighting a boxers brother who is famous for being on a reality show.

I get that they had a few fights, but most of them were entertainment fights and nothing to do with real title chance. Like anyone who is on their way to win the real title, would simply destroy these two in a single round, without a doubt. I am not entirely if they are checked for juicing or not, they look pretty juiced from the photos as well.

We can't really blame them if they see this industry as gold and honey because anyone can really make millions of dollars in almost twice per year as long as you got a huge fan base that will be around you and to support you in situations like these. You don't have to be a certified boxer or fighter to make a fight, that's the reality these days as anyone can make a good profit fight even without the support of the existing governing bodies.

We are just fortunate enough because we've seen the good old days where boxing is just too good to watch. Boxers have definitely thrived hard enough to gather and make someone their fans as technology wasn't as good as we have now, that's why if they are famous, it's expected that they are strong and hard.

Jake Paul does have a brilliant mind for making things possible. The tattoo deal he offered to Woodley seems to be a deal breaker. It's funny yet in the fighter's mind it makes them wanna prove something.

He does have the edge in the media and even in the ring after all, he became a real boxer after defeating big names. He might fight Mike Tyson too, this might need bigger funds for him.

I doubt the "winner takes all" bet will hold up in any court of law and I doubt if Tommy loses he'll be giving Jake a cent.  I guess we'll find out, as after seeing Tommy's fights I don't think he stands a chance against Jake.  Maybe I'm wrong though.  Jake's opponents haven't all been too great...

I think the Mike Tyson fight flew out the window when it became clear that they didn't really want to pay the cost to fight the boss.  Tyson isn't getting any younger and gave them a window where he would possibly be willing to fight.  They couldn't meet his contract demands so that fight went bye bye.  It will never happen.

I'd be surprised if Tommy will win, I couldn't scratch the possibility still as he is also a boxer. It's not the winner take all bet that made the fight possible as well. Maybe the constant trolling of Jake and getting into the skin of the Fury family so Tyson drags his brother to just go for it win or loses.

Since Mike Tyson did an exhibition with Jones, it could be possible with Jake too. All it needs is to show the money. Anyway, good luck to us all.
All hail Jake, hope to win some satoshis tomorrow.

I agree, there's no need for a paper and pen to make the bet legal. I ain't a lawyer either or a person that do knows all the loopholes about the law but mostly, a video containing a verbal agreement as an evidence is more than enough to file for a claim in-case the losing side will suddenly chicken out after the fact that they shook their hands to make the deal happen. The losing side just can't make up any good excuse to justify their actions, just in-case.

In this instance, the losing side will not just lose all the possible money he could get but the reward as well such as a promise from the WBC that the winner will be included in the rankings and that means everything as it's a door of opportunity.

I'd pay to see Jake be pounded by Mike Tyson in a somewhat serious manner. Mike is quite old and has since embraced gentleness after realizing that he has lived a rather violent life, but the man can still throw some insanely strong punches when he wanted to. I think if the money is good, Mike Tyson will give this one a go. Then again, we know that Jake selects his opponents very carefully and that he doesn't really fight someone professional in the field of boxing.

They just had their first face to face at the press conference: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ho4nda7fLJg

What I found funny/interesting is Jake proposed a double or nothing bet to Tommy that if he loses Tommy gets double his purse and Jake gets nothing and even had the contract/bet ready to sign: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zZClH_f-k9M

Tommy's dad John Fury was quick to accept quite vocally but Tommy didn't seem too sure and looks like he tried to start a scuffle to change the topic haha. Tommy has seemed very confident up until that. I guess if he was so sure he would gladly take the bet but I don't blame him if he doesn't. Potentially going home with nothing would probably be too much to handle.

Tyson is over there now so maybe his presence will add a bit of extra spice.

Lol I was about to comment about the all or nothing bet between Fury and Paul.  Paul seems agitated by the comment of Fury that it is an easy fight.  And that Paul will lost since he is now facing a fresh boxer and not a washed up MMA old players.  So Paul wanted to make a bet as you stated, the winner take all.  Now that sounds very interesting.

That's why there's a lot of people who supports Jake Paul because he got a good initiative how to turn the tides into his favor, he surely knows how to use it too well so that he will not be silence by any comments made by other camps or some speculative hypes. Jake Paul indeed got an extraordinary mouth for saying something like that out of the blue and with contract prepared which was really unexpected by the opposite camp as they are surely surprised about it. For that, Jake Paul deserves my thumbs up :D

That is what the people want. He exactly gives them what they want and he talks the way they want him to talk.

What I really wonder is how much of all his behavior is show and how much he is actually himself, or whether both is the same, that he is just a show guy.

Every time these guys meet in the boxing ring and are head to head, looking at each other as if there was enmity between them, I guess it is mostly Hollywood acting. But Jake Paul understands how to make money off of that.

But his attitude is a bit annoying to say the least. That is why this fight is interesting as he is going to meet an opponent who has all the expertise in the background. Now it comes down to executing perfect technique against someone who made a hobby his main source of income. :D

But isn't Mike Tyson got some kind of illness? And I think he will not be fit to fight anymore.

Anyway, they are making a lot of noise during the official weigh in, Tommy Fury seems hyped while Jake Paul is just chilling.  Btw, Have you noticed the difference in how their body is ripped?  Jake Paul seems not conditioned to fight, well compare to how ripped the body of Tommy Fury is.

Here is the video of the weigh-in btw: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pOHb3cQ_iqc

It depends on where this happens but this should be legally binding, there was a very famous case in which  Ryan Leslie a singer and a producer lost his laptop and offered one million dollars to the one that could give it back to him, someone found the laptop and returned it but he refused to pay the man, he was sued and the person won the whole amount plus the interests, and since Leslie declared bankruptcy he had to give way the rights to his music to pay what he owes.

Fury - 184.5 lbs
Paul - 183.6 lbs

As usual, some pushing to hype the fight even more hehehe, but it is expected that this is going to be huge as far as PPV numbers in the Middle East/London and the US.

This would be very funny for the loser who will go home with nothing except blacks and blues hehehehe.

I reckon the hesitation from Tommy was not because he was not confident. It was because he did not know what to tell Jake. This might be because it was not for him to make the decision. It appeared for me that it might be the father who decides and manages the financial decisions for this fight. Tommy can blame John on Monday hehehehehe.

The stakes are so high now in this fight it just keeps adding up because Jake Paul keeps challenging and baiting Tommy Fury, people will be excited to see this fight and the outcome, there are so many first on this fight, only two days before the fight I am more excited on the weigh-in and final face-off, I hope there are no more delays but I want more dramas and thrash talks because this fight thrives on the drama and thrash talks both fighters and their team delivers.

Agreed! Jake Paul expected the trashtalks from Tommy Fury and he knew what to reply already. He is attacking where it will very much hurt the Fury family. Taking all of their money and let them go home with only black and blues hehehehe.

In any case, does anyone speculate that Jake can knockout Tommy? It might be difficult because Tommy is a professional boxer who has enough experience to avoid Jake's tricks.

If this is true then they will need to change the script because its only hours before the fight but like all the comments on that tweet it dumps script if you included a swelling in the eyes if Fury intentionally exposes his eyes people will see that and suspect that he's fixing it, and I don't think they can rehearse the script because they really hate the presence of each other.
This so-called script is created to like what you said discredit Paul because people hate to see Jake Paul winning and don't want him to become notorious as a Youtuber that's knocking out his opponents.

What's happening with the betting lines?  Just a few hours before the fight, there's a lot of action going into Tommy Fury.  I think it was close to 1.60 just a couple of days ago for Jake Paul.  Right now the line is at 1.77 and it went as high as 1.85 or so a couple of hours ago.

Tommy Fury has looked confident and he looks very big compared to Jake even if Jake is the taller fighter. I think every one is surprised by the confidence and the talk about Tommy Fury and he has been saying that Jake Paul is not a professional boxer and has only fought MMA fighters and said he is a professional fighter and has beaten other professional boxers.

I did put down a parlay bet on Mayweather and Jake Paul both winning their fights. Seemed like an easy bet. We’ll see how it plays out but I’m feeling somewhat confident at the moment. Jake Paul winning and calling out KSI might be in the script, but that’s because it’s seemingly obvious.

Yeah, it's nonsense. People don't seem to understand that knowingly fixing matches that are being bet on would mean everyone involved would be looking at time in prison, hence why the WWE doesn't allow betting, but there we have it, the speculation will continue to circulate about for as long as time. That's not to say match fixing doesn't happen, it has in the past, but not on this large of a stage.

I've seen the script, there's a ton wrong with it including citing organsations which don't even identify themselves as those names, but how on earth do you fake a swollen eye on live television? Anyway, like I said any match fixing is beyond a joke, and shouldn't be entertained at this point.

As for who I've got to win; Tommy Fury. I'm not doing it via any method, just Tommy Fury.

Nobody is taking that serious. It's not even a good effort. They could have made it so much more believable if they just stuck to things that could be plausible like a fighter looking tired or getting knocked down. No idea how you fake your eye swelling etc.

I'm not sure why Jake was the favourite. I would have put them at even odds. Tommy is in great shape and has the arms of an ape so I don't know whether that has swayed the bookies  :D.

He does look very confident as well as calm and collected. I thought the pressure of it all might start to get to him a bit. I guess it still could as there's a while to go before he's in the ring.

How did you put a bet on Mayweather when it was an exhibition with no winner announced?

I've still no idea what to expect. I just want to see a good fight and hope Jake can at least match Tommy in skill. A good fight with a late knock out would be ideal. Weren't you originally backing Jake? What made you change your mind?

Well, it’s good to see a boxing match with a quite bit entertainment lol. But honestly, I am expecting a good fight from these two boxers because both are professional boxers and are both undefeated in their careers. So we’ll see who will be the next undefeated and the most reputable boxer for tonight as the highlight of the game is about to start. Now we’re about to learn it and see it for ourselves.

Looking at the physique during their weigh in, it looks like Tommy Fury had an edge since Jake Paul body physique doesn't look like fit to fight at all comparing to the built of Tommy Fury, but then who knows, I am sure Jake Paul is hiding that knock out punchers on the not so ripped physique.

Anyway I am looking for the result of the fight and yet none is available, it looks like the fight is still going on.  I am not spending any dime to watch the fight, I'll just rely on the news though since there is nothing special on the fight. really.

The fight is just in the introduction stage but there is already a lot of drama in both entrances, Jake Paul getting a lot of boos while coming out there are a lot of live coverages on social but be sure to pick a set of links because social media are quick to take down.
But if you want to follow the results round per round and with quick analysis, these are some of the links

I'm just watching it from free streaming in Facebook though, hehehe

Not much on the first round 1, Fury using his jab though, but I don't like his stance, his hands are down, probably show boating but Paul can hit that hail Mary right hand.

I gave the round to Tommy, 10-9.

I hope it was Jake Paul although it seems improvable, since I only heard comments he would lose in this fight

The people got their's money worth in this fight both fighters show their true boxing skills, but there should be one winner, and it's Tommy Fury he ended the reign of Jake Paul I thought that the knockdown will have an impact but Tommy Fury already accumulated a lot of points.
It's one entertaining fight it surpasses all expectations.

Tommy won via split decision. Personally I would have given it a draw especially with the late knock down from Jake. I hate it when fights are so close like this and someone loses their 0. I don't think Jake deserved that point taken off either, but credit to both of them. They both seemed pretty evenly matched and you can't say Jake isn't a boxer now because if he isn't then neither is Tommy. I actually think Jake got some of the better punches in but Tommy did seem more composed which is expected given he's been boxing for so long. I'm sure they will do the rematch now. Jake seemed to want it and Tommy is up for it so it makes sense.

Okay, so the Fury won but to be honest it wasn't the won he or his fans were expecting. It was really 50/50 fight. To be honest, definitely Fury showed that he is more experienced and has better stamina but Jake was a very tough opponent for him. He even almost KO-ed Fury.

Well, Jake proved that a youtuber, who was watching Disney channel at the age of 14, become so successful in boxing in recent years that he become very tough opponent, made a 50/50 match for a person who comes from a boxers family and boxes since childhood. That's not a win to be honest, I wouldn't celebrate that win if I was fury but truth is he said exact same words to Paul in person after the winner's announcement.
In this match Jake Paul really earned respect in my eyes.

I've watched the whole fight and I don't know who really won because it's too close I thought Jake Paul scoring a knockdown will make him a winner then I remember there's a point deduction in one of the rounds and if Tommy Fury won that round its also 10-8, I think making it a draw will make it fair, I don't think this fight will stop Jake from boxing because he wasn't shut out its a split decision and he can even contest it, the referee should have not deducted the point, as I didn't see a prior warning or might have missed it, I hate to see referees doing something that will have an impact on the scoring, he should leave it to the fighters and judges.

I wasn't able to watch the full fight though, I just had the score for Fury first 2 rounds and I was not surprised to see Fury winning although it was reported that there is a knock down scored by Jake Paul. But maybe Fury is already ahead of the judges score card and could have score it 9-9 if Fury did score at least even if he gets knock down.

Yeah and with this kind of "controversial" results, maybe a rematch will do, and of course, the big money in the table for the second fight that Tommy Fury can't refused.

@Baofeng. Yes and very much similar to the ICOs in the cryptospace, they will create another storyline to again make the fans very intruiged and they will certainly be buying tickets and payperviews hehehe. This will be declared the Paul-Fury trilogy. I am not quite certain if this will be the type of fights that will put the sport of boxing forward, however. I reckon the fans should be more demanding of the best boxers to challenge each other like Crawford vs. Spence.

Those who love boxing for the tough fights won't love this kind of celebrity exhibitions. So I guess there is now a certain niche within the boxing community. Take note that this kind of celebrity match is on pay-per-view. Live audience is also big. The purse is of course big as well. There is a significant following for this kind of match.

I could only watch the highlights. It was fun to be fair, but not the kind of fun when you're watching two skillful full-blooded fighters who are made and trained to eat and throw punches. Those are the kinds of fights that would keep everybody on the edge of their seats.

Fury technically won by 1 point, so, as you say, this was a 50/50 fight. And to be honest I didn't like it at all... I'm not sure how Fury won after almost getting knocked out, that move should give more points to Jake Paul or at least should be a fact on the decision... But is what it is.

And now let's talk about drugs because I'm almost sure those guys weren't clean and would like to know what you guys think about this. If they do a test for sure they will fail.

Some names are in business for their presence on Internet and Jake Paul is one of them. They are there to bring eyeballs to the business, and that's all that matters.

For example, I don't know Crawford or Spence or Fury, but had heard about Jake,  and through him I got introduced to everything.

Jake admitted to his loss even though he scored a knockdown, this is the first time he fought a real boxer and he floored him, Jake's performance is already a boxer level he even claims that he can take Tommy's power and his power is nothing compared to Woodley or Silva, the match can go either way and Tommy got the nod of the two judges.
If there's a rematch clause he can opt for a rematch but of course, it will go down to Tommy if he still wants Jake, I don't think Jake's career is over he may opt for a rematch or another celebrity match, both fighter really entertains the audiences its worth all the hype.

This is smelling more and more like something that were planned for a re-match, but who am I to say that.. right? I have to say, the Youtuber's boxing skills have impressed me... so I will surely pay to see the next fight.  :P

Nah, that one knockdown ain't enough to win that match. Tommy clearly land more jabs than Paul. If Tommy didn't get too comfortable with this fight and held his hands high for defense, Paul would barely land a clean jab. Still, kudos to Jake for fighting a real and active boxer. That one knockdown is really something and might be start of his career in fighting real boxers.
However, he still needs a lot of training and work to do if he wants to win his next match (hopefully against another active boxer).

For sure, hehehe, even John Fury says that Jake Paul is a boxer  ;D and they are all praises with him. And it just shows that they opting for a rematch maybe in the Saudi again as obviously the money in boxing is now on the Middle East. Paul said he respects the decision even though he didn't like it obviously. So I guess we shouldn't be surprised if there will be a rematch and then animosity between the two, trash talking and that will culminate in the face off/weigh in pushing each other again. But we all know that this fight is just for pure money itself. There are a lot of upcoming boxing fights that fans shouldn't missed though.

So all in all Jake and Tommy reached their goal. As to a fight, it wasnt bad. It was way more interesting than that Mayweather vs. Chalmers exhibition fight, when Floyd did not even appeared at weigh-ins, because he has a birthday that day.

There's going to be a rematch they need to hype it again, I guess a rematch will be good for both Jake Paul and the fight is too close and he scored a knockdown and got deducted, Tommy suffered a knockdown from the hands of a one he called a Youtuber and as a boxer, he needs to get even so they need to do a rematch and it seems all the articles and talks are going for it now and Jake even confirmed that there will be one let's see how they will build up the rematch, the build-up on this fight is entertaining and full of drama and fans will like to see another drama for the build-up of their rematch.

You have to give him credit. I had no idea what would happen in this fight and Jake went the distance and even got a knock down. I'm glad a lot of people and even the Fury family and most other pro boxers are giving them the credit they deserve. To have John Fury declare Jake a proper boxer now must mean a lot to Jake and it's nice to see that there isn't bad blood between them. You could tell it meant a lot to Tommy too and the weight of the world must have been lifted off his shoulders after being declared the winner. Hopefully they'll both up their game and train like absolute maniacs for the rematch and give an even better fight. They should maybe up it to 12 rounds even though both of them looked pretty knackered by the end of it.

Come on now. You would probably say this whether it was a draw or Jake won. If they wanted to build up for a rematch then a draw would probably be the better option for that as nobody loses their 0 and they can bill it as unfinished business. Jake will have wanted the straight win more than anything so he can take the W of beating a boxer and move on to bigger and better things. Now he's got to go again in a fight he might just lose again.

Yes, only a draw or a victory for Tommy made it possible to hold a rematch, since in case of a victory for Jack Paul, the right to a rematch is not spelled out in Tommy Fury's contract, so we will see another duel between them, but to be honest, I expected more from Tommy.

after passing 10 hours the fight ended and I could see the highlights of the fight, maybe it's my impression or the fact that I didn't watch the fight I'm making wrong judgment, but I had to replay the highlight video for more than 5 times , even though it was only a 3 minute video that summarized the fight, I got the impression that jack is doing so well in the fight that he even deserved to win the fight, but in my opinion people were rooting for Tommy Fury's victory, all every time Tommy Fury threw a string of punches at jack people screamed and clapped probably convinced that as long as Tommy Fury kept throwing the punches he won

then I went to read people's comments, all I see are comments for Fury, most of the comments were that jack is still an amateur in the Boxing and that Fury was holding back, others even believe that the speed of fury's punches did the trick. jack trembling, from what I see even if jack wanted a second fight I doubt very much that fury would accept it, that's because with this victory fury will continue with a good reputation and if he accepts a second fight and loses, then his first fight it would also taste like defeat



And now let's talk about drugs because I'm almost sure those guys weren't clean and would like to know what you guys think about this. If they do a test for sure they will fail.

I don't know if they're using drugs or not, but the post-fight interview makes it seem like someone said to Tommy Fury: "here's a big challenge to climb to the top of the biggest mountain in the world, no one has ever managed to reach the top of the mountain" and he managed to reach the top of the mountain so they are very happy... this is the impression I have when I see his interview.

A big win by Tommy Fury, I believe he was dominant in most rounds. If there was no knockdown in the last round, I don't think the decision would have been a split decision. Anyway, regardless of the decision, what matters is that Jake Paul has finally found a good match and is no longer undefeated. This fight deserves a rematch because it was fun to watch, and I'm sure that Tommy Fury would accept it because he wants to prove to everyone that he can dominate Jake Paul.

By the way, do you know how much they made from this fight? Is their earnings public?

To be honest, I don't think either of them deserved the point taken off. Tommy Fury wasn't engaging much of the clinching, and shouldn't have had the point deducted, and honestly Tommy Fury was hitting Jake in the back of the head as much as Jake was to him. So, I'd just let them carry on. There was one bad punch in the back of the head from Tommy Fury, but that's only because Jake Paul turned his back.


but credit to both of them. They both seemed pretty evenly matched and you can't say Jake isn't a boxer now because if he isn't then neither is Tommy.

Good, entertaining fight. I thought the one judge that made it a split decision was awful mind you. I had Tommy had several rounds same as the other judges. Jake Paul did score that knock down though, and despite Tommy's claims that was a knock down, and not a slip. It might have been because he was off balance, but that's a knock down. I'd probably watch this fight again. Tommy Fury still has a bright future, I think most of us forget he's only 23. Also, I did notice that the promotion had Jake Paul with longer reach, how do they even measure these arms?

Based from this article -
https://www.sportingnews.com/us/boxing/news/jake-paul-vs-tommy-fury-purse-salaries-2023-fight/yxww1azqknwp5hkoudfsjnhj

Jake Paul will get a guaranteed purse of $3.2M plus ppv earnings so approx $8.6M.
Whereas, Fury can get a total of $4.5M. Now that Fury won this match, I believe, Fury will get the bigger split come this rematch.
The percentage may reverse next time, 35-65% in PPV earnings in favor of Fury.
This earnings is really not bad, much much higher than most professional boxers.
Paul was saying he was sick twice and injured his arm, but not making excuses. So let's see how the rematch will pan out.

Fury looked better, although I agree that the fight was close, Fury still deserved the victory more. After the match, Paul talked about wanting a rematch, but I don’t see the point in that. Maybe he was hurt by the fact that he was beaten, this is the first defeat and he is no longer invincible, but this is what I wanted to see, a fight with a young fighter, even if not at the top level.

Before the fight, Fury talked about all the money from this fight going to charity, I don’t know if it will be like that, or it was just talk.

So, I'd just let them carry on. There was one bad punch in the back of the head from Tommy Fury, but that's only because Jake Paul turned his back.


Yeah, I agree. Maybe he was making up for the bad decision earlier. I don't think that ref was great to be honest. I'm surprised they didn't use a more well known/respected one. Tommy did hit him in the back of the head but I don't think it was malicious either but you never know.

but credit to both of them. They both seemed pretty evenly matched and you can't say Jake isn't a boxer now because if he isn't then neither is Tommy. I actually think Jake got some of the better punches in but Tommy did seem more composed which is expected given he's been boxing for so long. I'm sure they will do the rematch now. Jake seemed to want it and Tommy is up for it so it makes sense.
Good, entertaining fight. I thought the one judge that made it a split decision was awful mind you. I had Tommy had several rounds same as the other judges. Jake Paul did score that knock down though, and despite Tommy's claims that was a knock down, and not a slip. It might have been because he was off balance, but that's a knock down. I'd probably watch this fight again.


Yeah, it was a knock down. Even Tommy's brother Shane and dad said so, but it was one of those weak ones where he was off balance but that's still a punch that caused you to fall and still a knock down. Tommy clearly wasn't stung by it either so I'll give him that. I think it's inevitable the rematch will happen. It makes sense for everyone. Maye the second fight will be even more eventful and call for a trilogy.

Tommy Fury still has a bright future, I think most of us forget he's only 23.

I think if Tommy has a bright future then so does Jake. The trouble with Tommy is where does he go from here? He's no where good enough to be challenging for titles and how can he co back to fighting for 10-20k on people's undercards now? I think he might have to pivot into youtube boxing or at least keep doing it side-by-side with pro boxing. I'm not sure how far he can make it as a pro and might get embarrassed the moment he stops fighting journeymen whereas he could probably go on to be one of the best 'influencer' boxers which is probably where the big money is at anyway.

Also, I did notice that the promotion had Jake Paul with longer reach, how do they even measure these arms?


Ae you sure? I didn't see that.

I'd watch it again. Both fighters should learn from it, and it was a competitive fight which is what you want. Tommy Fury clearly the more technical, and crisp striker, but Jake Paul has power, and he did sting Tommy a few times with that overhand right.

Yeah, Jake has a future in boxing too. Even at the lower levels, I don't think Tommy Fury is champion material, but then again some divisions to have some poor champions. Just look at Ilunga Makabu, I'm sorry, but he's a poor champion. He's got power, and that's about it. His technique, and footwork were awful last night.

Ae you sure? I didn't see that.
I'm pretty sure I saw that. Although, it's not like I went back, and checked. I just saw they had Jake Paul at 6ft 1 I believe, a inch taller than Fury, and his reach was also marginally more. Although, like I said I might be wrong.

A big win by Tommy Fury, I believe he was dominant in most rounds. If there was no knockdown in the last round, I don't think the decision would have been a split decision. Anyway, regardless of the decision, what matters is that Jake Paul has finally found a good match and is no longer undefeated. This fight deserves a rematch because it was fun to watch, and I'm sure that Tommy Fury would accept it because he wants to prove to everyone that he can dominate Jake Paul.

By the way, do you know how much they made from this fight? Is their earnings public?

Based from this article -
https://www.sportingnews.com/us/boxing/news/jake-paul-vs-tommy-fury-purse-salaries-2023-fight/yxww1azqknwp5hkoudfsjnhj

Jake Paul will get a guaranteed purse of $3.2M plus ppv earnings so approx $8.6M.
Whereas, Fury can get a total of $4.5M. Now that Fury won this match, I believe, Fury will get the bigger split come this rematch.
The percentage may reverse next time, 35-65% in PPV earnings in favor of Fury.
This earnings is really not bad, much much higher than most professional boxers.
Paul was saying he was sick twice and injured his arm, but not making excuses. So let's see how the rematch will pan out.

They'll probably just do 50/50 at most though. I still think Tommy is the lesser name. Regardless of the loss it's still Jake that is the bigger draw here. It's Jake's name that is selling out stadiums and PPVs; Tommy isn't. He's an undercard fighter at the moment not a headliner but it's Jake that has pulled him up to where he is right now.

Yeah, Jake has a future in boxing too. Even at the lower levels, I don't think Tommy Fury is champion material, but then again some divisions to have some poor champions. Just look at Ilunga Makabu, I'm sorry, but he's a poor champion. He's got power, and that's about it. His technique, and footwork were awful last night.

Yeah. To be honest though both Ilunga Makabu and Badou Jack are probably at the tail end of their careers. Maybe Jake should actually fight a ranked opponent in the division because I'm not sure how many levels Makabu is over him. He might actually impress. Jake should just either take the rematch and/or get some more fights under his belt and who knows where he can go. Maybe we might see Tommy meet Jake again down the line in a bout for a decent ranking or with a proper belt up fr grabs. There's no reason why they both can't go away improve and take their careers to the next level.

Ae you sure? I didn't see that.

They had Jake a inch taller which seems to be correct but I'm pretty sure they had Tommy far eclipsing Jake on reach too.

after passing 10 hours the fight ended and I could see the highlights of the fight, maybe it's my impression or the fact that I didn't watch the fight I'm making wrong judgment, but I had to replay the highlight video for more than 5 times , even though it was only a 3 minute video that summarized the fight, I got the impression that jack is doing so well in the fight that he even deserved to win the fight, but in my opinion people were rooting for Tommy Fury's victory, all every time Tommy Fury threw a string of punches at jack people screamed and clapped probably convinced that as long as Tommy Fury kept throwing the punches he won
No, this was really 50/50 fight, it was even more 50/50 than Volkanovski's and Makhachevn's match. But Tommy was performing better. You could really feel that Tommy was into boxing for years and has more experience. I noticed that Jake Paul has very bad stamina. If his stamina was as good as Tommy's, definitely Jake would beat him. However, Tommy won slightly. From this match, no one, not even Tommy can say that he is the best and I think he admitted it. I loved the fact that Tommy appreciated Jake Paul after the match and admitted that Jake Paul is a real boxer and he was wrong. He even told that to Jake after the match: https://twitter.com/BTSportBoxing/status/1629982223842824195?cxt=HHwWhsDSpcqM7p4tAAAA

then I went to read people's comments, all I see are comments for Fury, most of the comments were that jack is still an amateur in the Boxing and that Fury was holding back, others even believe that the speed of fury's punches did the trick. jack trembling, from what I see even if jack wanted a second fight I doubt very much that fury would accept it, that's because with this victory fury will continue with a good reputation and if he accepts a second fight and loses, then his first fight it would also taste like defeat
The clan of Fury accepted rematch :D

I wonder if they'll have a rematch, it seems that there are people and even jake paul thinks that he should have won(well, he said he doesn't agree with the judges). I won't be surprised if a rematch happened, it seems that a lot of people are going to want a rematch too, especially jake paul's fans.

There's will be a rematch 100% because Jake Paul wouldn't want to lose from any boxer, at least if he win in the rematch, he already prove anyone if he can beat every boxers he have fought. It was a close fight, some people think Paul should win, but some of them say it's should be draw. But draw is really make sense because both of them have showed a good fight, it's not an easy decision.

Honestly I think the judges will favor on Jake Paul's side, but they prove me wrong here.

However, the rematch clause rule in boxing could see the two battle it out once again. In the sport, a fighter is allowed to state in their contract that, if they lose a match, their competitor will have to accept a rematch challenge and honor the deal.

Given Tommy Fury has already expressed interest in going back for more against Jake Paul, this clause could see the two go toe-to-toe once again in a rematch fight.

I would love to see a rematch.

There must be something that the judges saw and we didn't. I am also scoring there and most of my rounds are for Jake Paul. I don't know what happened and why it was 3 points away from the judges' scorecards.
The first judge was right with just 1 point difference, I don't know about the other two.
Anyway, it was a good fight, the 1st round seems like they are going for a wrestling match but as it goes on they played better.
How much was it for winning Tommy Fury's bet? I know he is the underdog, but how far?
Edit: Found it @2.06.

Jake Paul's camp should really think hard if a rematch will be good for him. It's probably better to challenge a bigger name now since he'll most likely lose again.

.....
the guy was under a lot of pressure, maybe if he had lost he would have been crying
He won't be able to sleep and just staring into the abyss hehe.

He's probably not that happy inside with the way the fight finished but still well done to him for overcoming that huge pressure. He'll gain confidence from this for sure and he'll most likely finish or win more convincingly if the rematch happens. There's a high chance that his camp will also push for it.

Both boxers are actually over paid considering their performance.  It is really boring to watch, I even fell asleep watching them.  That is how marketing and promotion do.  They did a lot of controversies and at the end underperform.  Well, what would we expect to a boxer that is considered newbies in terms of being a professional boxer.  Probably Jake Paul will go back fighting washed out athletes, and Tommy would have a better opportunity in terms of boxing career.

I think undercard fights are way better than the main one.

Yep, I didn't enjoy watching it after I realized I lose the bet. I thought Jake will win since he did a quick KO in the 8th round that big plus for him but eventually that was just a quick KO and Tom even contested it.

Tommy can do a combo making Jake hug for his dear life. I guess it's true what they say that Tommy indeed is a real boxer and can utilize his reach advantage after all.
