Jake Paul

[Master]

Tommy Fury is set to appoint Shane McGuigan as his trainer for the upcoming grudge match against Jake Paul. The pair have been rivals for some time and were originally scheduled to meet in December of last year only for Fury to pull out due to a broken rib and a chest infection.

They will meet on August 6 at Madison Square Garden in New York and Fury has made the decision to pick McGuigan as his cornerman.

John Fury - father of heavyweight champion Tyson Fury as well as Tommy - is unable to attend the fight in America due to visa issues.

It means Tommy has been on the search for a replacement and it is expected to be McGuigan who takes over. The trainer - son of legend Barry McGuigan - has made his own name in the sport as a coach and is regarded as one of the world's best.

He has previously guided Carl Frampton to world glory in two divisions, unified the light welterweight division with Josh Taylor and more recently Lawrence Okolie to the WBO cruiserweight title.

Fury - currently 8-0 as a professional - confirmed the fight last week in a social media post.

"After weeks and weeks of waiting for Jake Paul to sign up to the drugs testing - and potentially putting the fight at risk - he's finally signed up to the drug testing," Fury said.

"We've agreed a contract that we're happy with, so the fight is going ahead and I'll see you August 6." Fury was responding to a post by Paul 24 hours before, accusing him of ducking a potential fight with him.

He said: "Tommy Fury, you pulled out last year. Then you agree to fight me now but your dad is trying to pull you out again?

"We've given you everything you asked for. $2million purse. VADA testing. Tampons. You have 24 hours to clear this up or I will never give you this opportunity." Paul, meanwhile, will be trained by former cruiserweight contender BJ Flores and currently has a record of 5-0, including two wins over former UFC world champion Tyron Woodley.

Tyson Fury and Jake Paul have agreed to a $1million bet on the latter’s fight with Tommy Fury this August.

YouTube star Paul has gone 5-0 since beginning his professional boxing career, knocking out each man he has faced – including former UFC champion Tyron Woodley in December.

Woodley was stepping in for Tommy Fury – half-brother of WBC heavyweight champion Tyson – after the Briton withdrew due to illness and injury.

Now American Paul, 25, and Fury, 23, are scheduled to clash at last, with a bout scheduled for 6 August at Madison Square Garden in New York City.

Tyson Fury said in a recent interview that he would bet “100 grand” on his younger brother to beat anybody, and Paul called out the “Gypsy King” shortly thereafter.

“Tyson Fury, who made $40m last year, is willing to bet $100,000 on his brother. Oh, my god, we’re shaking,” Paul said in a video on Twitter.

“Hey, Tyson, you f*****g p***y, you made $40m. I know it wasn’t as much as me, but let’s up the ante. Let’s bet $1m on it, Tyson. $2m, $3m. However much you want to f*****g bet, let’s do it. Are you down? Make a deal.

“I can tell when someone’s not confident because these p***y motherf*****s are on Twitter. They’re scared, I can tell when they’re scared. But me, I’m a cold motherf*****, I’ll bet anyone – any time, any place. So, f*** your $100k. Let’s make this a better bet and make it worth a couple million. Are you down?”

Tyson Fury did not take long to respond, accepting Paul’s proposal.

“Hey, Jakey boy, I hear you want to bet a bigger bet than $100,000,” Fury said in a video on his social media channels. “If you want a bigger bet, you want a million dollars, let’s do it. Holler at your boy. You want a million? You got it.

“Hey, Jakey. I want to see this $1m in escrow, sucker, because I don’t think you’ve got a million dollars.

“I’m not talking about crypto, I’m talking about real US green bags motherf*****.”

Tommy Fury is 8-0 as a professional boxer but first became known for his assocation to Tyson and his appearances on the British reality television show Love Island.

He last fought in April, outpointing Daniel Bocianski on the undercard of Tyson’s knockout win against Dillian Whyte at London’s Wembley Stadium.

“I’ll cut you up and chop you to bits, just like I did to Bocianski),” Fury said. “That lad in there would kill Jake Paul on the spot. He’d slap Jake Paul. Jake Paul, I will end your career. You’re a bum and you’re no good. Let’s get this fight done.”

jake v hasim rahman jr is a much better challenge. hasim jr fought as an amateur & has sparred good fighters. can we change the thread title?

[palmerq]

Hashim jr is a pretty hefty guy isn't he, fighting around 220+ I think there's going to be a good amount of weight draining going on in this fight, Jake Paul is fighting around 190 I think so Rahman jr has a month to lose 30 lbs ? Don't think it will go well for jr.

hasim jr will have to cut a bit, he has been as high as two sixtyish & his last fight was two twentyish. i guess he jumped at the opportunity coming of a loss

thread title name change please

for anyone interested. i've got to give jake credit. he isn't great & doesn't have a background in boxing but he comes in shape & is fighting some guys who have been fighting for many years. sure different sports & much older than their best but i just keep remembering jake as a youtube content creator & now in only his six fight is beating a guy who only last year won an eight round decision over a former world boxing champion, most amateur boxing prospects start out against similar opposition if not worse

Edited thread for anything related to Jake Paul.

Surely this should be in the spam section?

My nine year old grandson clearly thinks Paul is brilliant but then gave us all a good belly laugh by telling us that birds are not real and only land on overhead powerlines to recharge . I had to remind him when he asked 'had we ever seen a baby pigeon' about the wood pigeon eggs that get laid in the trees in our garden every year, which we than watch grow from chicks into birds. That is the same kind of power to erase rational thinking and even real life lived experience Jake Paul manages to inspire in his followers.

Tommy Fury is kinda fighting for boxing tonight.

What the fuck did I just say?



For the love of the sport, please save me

Fury wins the first round with the better boxing. A lot of missing and poor technique from Jake.
