Jake Paul is gearing up to finally settle his two-year feud with Tommy Fury, with a fight scheduled for the end of February in Saudi Arabia. The Problem Child is ensuring the fight doesn’t fall through again.
Just 24 hours after the fight was announced, he was in the UK ready for a press conference with his next opponent, who had his famous brother, Tyson Fury in attendance, the man who is arguably the best heavyweight in the world as this is being typed.
Whoever loses this fight will be in a spot of bother, if Fury loses, his credibility as a professional boxer will be down the drain, especially with what he’s said ahead of the bout, including comments from his family. On the other hand, Paul would potentially lose out on his fight with KSI in the near future should he lose as JJ wants to fight Fury if he wins.
Tyson Fury gatecrashes Jake Paul’s interview
Paul was doing his own personal interview with a media outlet, when the current heavyweight champion burst through the door and looked like he was about to punch Paul, but of course he didn’t let loose on The Problem Child.
Fury was calling in to congratulate him for taking the fight on, although it certainly looked a little more sinister to begin with as Paul himself genuinely thought he was about to receive a blow from one of the hardest hitters in the boxing world.
Despite the war of words between Paul and Tommy, seeing Tyson have the class to talk to The Problem Child like that and be genuine about the fight, wishing him good luck etc sums him up, of course when the fight happens he’ll be wanting Paul down and out, but that doesn’t stop him being a class act prior to the bout.
