Jake Paul

[palmerq]

Is Tommy fury much more of a pro boxer than Jake paul is? This fury looks to have fought similar competition to Jake paul, and his best opponent was an old mma wrestler guy :S... Fair enough he's taking on someone who's being training boxing for a while, I'm slightly interested to see how it goes. I don't mind the paul gits scamming people with their boxing endeavors, they're putting the work in so fair enough... I just don't think they should call out guys they know they'll never fight (Logan Paul calling out alvarez and anyone)... Good luck to them all, I'm not paying for any of it though.

Hopefully Fury ends the Logan brothers you tube freak show once and for all. The only issue is Fury will get paid so much he may not have the passion to work his way up.

I don’t get it at all. I hate to be “that guy” but the influencer aspect of this generation really makes me wonder- people are rich/famous not for being particularly gifted at anything other than having an opinion and being a jack ass. This “fight” is a great example- how many true fighters out there are better and more deserving of a main event PPV fight? Marvin Hagler is rolling over in his grave….

Don’t worry about being “that guy”, you’re spot on. This is the thing that bugs Me. Jake Paul isn’t a terrible Boxer, but he’s earning out of Boxing what World Champions earn.
It’s never fucking right, and anyone who says “it puts Boxing in the spotlight” is wrong. Are we saying Jake Paul is bigger than Boxing?

Tyson Fury ‘terrorising’ Jake Paul with social media messages before Tommy Fury fight


Tyson Fury has said he has been “terrorising” Jake Paul with social media messages ahead of the YouTube star’s boxing match against the heavyweight champion’s younger brother Tommy.

Paul, who is 4-0 as a professional boxer, will take on Tommy Fury (7-0) in Florida on 18 December, and the latter’s half-brother Tyson is helping to train his sibling for the fight.

“I’ve been terrorising Jake on his inboxes,” Fury told iFL TV.

“They think they’re little talkers, [Jake and brother Logan], but welcome to my world.

“I rule the talking world, me. Not pretend videos and stuff, actually like rule it.”

Fury and his father John accompanied Tommy during Wednesday’s pre-fight press conference, which Paul attended via video call.

Insults were exchanged throughout the chaotic event, but Fury is confident that Tommy will be composed on fight night.

“I know how good Tommy is,” the 33-year-old said. “I’ve seen him knock people spark out in the gym every day. He’s a real banger.

“And when gets one shot on Paul, he’ll be kissing the canvas. Goodnight Vienna. Bye, bye.

“I want a big, old, dirty knockout like Tommy keeps talking about.”

Tommy Fury pulls out of Jake Paul boxing match which is sad as I wanted to end the you tube boxers.

I know it's off now, but I've no idea why this has been billed or touted as Jake Paul finally against a 'proper' boxer. They're both novices with a handful of fights. Fury has a handful of amateur fights under his belt but nothing worth writing home about. If you like Fury is a proper boxer, but on paper only.

I know it leaves a sour taste in the mouth Jake Paul gatecrashing boxing and bringing a non boxing fan base with him. No one had a problem when a football crowd followed Ricky Hatton into the boxing ring. If you put bums on seats whether that be at home (of course they're all at home, live streaming themselves watching a live stream of Paul) or in venue, you get paid accordingly.

That said someone needs to give both the Pauls a hiding. Just to set the record straight. I wouldn't be pinning my hopes on Tommy Fury flying the flag for boxing mind you. It's just as likely to be a complete embarrassment.
