[Boxing] Jake Paul vs Tommy Fury - February 26 in Saudi Arabia

[robelneo]

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.

Is everybody still as confident for a win for Jake Paul as his prior fights?  Beating Anderson Silva got my attention but dunno...  Does Tommy Fury have something on Paul?

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

Finally, somebody's zero is going to go down and one's bragging will be the one to reign so who will it be

[Baofeng]

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.

[Slow death]

I am looking for news to know who won this fight, I confess I had no time to watch (in fact I never have time to watch fights because I keep watching European countries' leagues games), so when I finished the NBA game I was Watching I slept 30 minutes and then I remembered this fight, when I look on Google to know the result of the fight I do not find, I do not even know if allut has already started or if you are still fighting or if you are over, in any case who won the fight? I hope it was Jake Paul although it seems improvable, since I only heard comments he would lose in this fight

[robelneo]

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.

[Synchronice]

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.

[coin-investor]

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.

[aioc]

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.
 

[Kakmakr]

I am not a big Jake Paul fan, but I think Tommy Fury did not deserve to win that fight. Jake Paul knocked him down and then lose over something as silly as a a controversial points deduction?

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.

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  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.

[TopTort777]

Well, we all get what we expected to have - a nice show. At first I only wanted to look for results next day morning, but ended with looking on the internet where to watch their fight And I think I wasnt the only one who did it. 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.
