Tommy’s reaction to that said it all.
Paul replied: "You're cringe as f***."
The comment didn't go down too well with boxing fans either, with the majority criticising John for taking things too far and stepping over the line.
The YouTuber-turned-boxer hit back at Fury Snr, claiming that he was living off his sons' achievements, calling him a 'nobody’ and inviting him to ‘suck my d***’.
Fury hit back with taunts that he’d ‘beat the s***’ out of him if he ever went to America and that he ‘doesn’t have a d*** to suck.’
Jake Paul is relatively new to boxing, but his professional record stands at a decent 4-0, of which three ended by knockout.
Fury’s record is better, though, as he is also unbeaten with his professional record standing at 7-0, four of those wins were by knockout.
Jake’s girlfriend Julia Rose has been dragged into the animosity between the boxers ahead of their fight next month. Julia jokingly proposed a mud wrestle bout with Tommy’s partner Molly-Mae Hague.
