Even if it's Tommy Fury, the point is that they BOTH earn way more than a pro boxer of their standing should earn or maybe even deserve.
besides, what makes Tommy Fury any more of a Pro Boxer than Jake Paul? Fury had a couple of 4 rounders then went on to Love Island.
How is that any different to Jake Paul? Notwithstanding the fact that he is just trading on the name. Who the fuck has he fought to earn the money they would earn ?
Jake Paul probably has better guys on his record than Tommy Fury.
And anyway, Tommy Fury had his chance and bottled it , MORE THAN ONCE!!
Former Undisputed 4 belt Prediction champion. Still P4P and People’s Champion.
Tommy is a light heavyweight.

Look at his record, absolutely pathetic. Jake Paul beat a 47 year old who last time out beat Chavez Jr. Chavez Jr. Probably never trained and was a long way away from when he was a World Champion.
Yet that completely blasts Fury’s record out of the window.

Never in my life did I imagine we would see so much respect on the recent illustrious championship career of Chavez Jr. in order to legitimize a 50 year old Paul opponent. Literally bizzarro land with this manufactured sideshow Reality tv tbh. The thing is many young fighters went 6-0 7-0 that night. Actual Olympians fighting since they were kids and being tested. But flies attract to the highest and warmest pile. Eventually you have to call out the long con when you see it. Actual debates on Canelo vs Paul ffs

It is the mark of an educated mind to be able to entertain a thought without accepting it.
Jake Paul has admitted that fears over Anderson Silva being knocked out in sparring caused pay-per-view sales for their fight to "tank".
YouTuber-turned-boxer Paul, 25, picked up his sixth professional win this past weekend by dropping Silva on the way to a points victory over the UFC legend. 'The Problem Child' had arguably his best outing yet against his toughest opponent, outboxing Silva over eight rounds with the judges scoring it 77-74, 78-73 and 78-73 in his favour.
The fight was in jeopardy just days before the event as Silva revealed he was "knocked out" twice in sparring during the lead-up, only for the Brazilian to state he misspoke and he was instead "knocked down". Paul said this halted all pre-buys for the event as the public thought the fight would be cancelled.
"The pre-buys were going crazy," he said on the Impaulsive podcast. "On Wednesday, when the news came out about Anderson saying he got knocked out [in sparring] or whatever, the fight was in jeopardy and all this press came out, the pre-buys tanked.

"The general public sees that and thinks it's not happening. Tommy pulled out, Hasim pulled out. ' Jake Paul can't get an event together, this is done'. It killed ticket sales, we were still selling tickets but that day everything went to zero. It was so annoying."
Paul predicted that pay-per-view buys for his win over Silva will likely not tip over the 300,000 mark, which he described as "upsetting". With all of his previous fights, bar his pro debut, taking place during the Covid-19 outbreak, Paul thinks the timing of his fight with Silva wasn't ideal and he plans for all his future contests to take place in the summer when no other sports are on. "I think it will probably go around 200,000 - 300,000 which is kind of upsetting," Paul added.
"Halloween, World Series and Sunday football. This is the worst time of the year to fight but guess what, I had to fight. All of my fights from now on will be in the summer, there's no sports. There's like this perfect gap in July and early August when there is no sports. All my other fights were during Covid when no one had anything to do and anything to watch. NBA, NFL, nothing was on. I had to fight this year, I just had to get it f****ng done. I was tired of waiting around."

Do not let success go to your head and do not let failure get to your heart.
