LOVE ISLAND star Tommy Fury has taken Jake Paul’s bait by calling him out for a fight.
His half-brother and WBC champ Tyson Fury sparked the initial match-up after Tommy’s knockout win over journeyman Scott Williams.

After praising his bro on Twitter, Tyson commented: “@jakepaul where you at?”
Youtuber Paul, 24, wasted little time in responding by goading Tommy into a potential bout.
He took to Instagram and said: “I get to the bottom of the tweet and I see that he (Tyson) has called me out to fight someone.
“The tweet is about his brother and I thought ‘I didn’t even know he had a brother.’
“And then he’s calling me out to fight his brother. I’m like ‘bro what the f*** is going on here?’
“If Tyson Fury took a s***, it would be his little brother – this little kid.
“My point is, ‘dear Tyson Fury’s little brother, if you want to fight me don’t let your big bro do s*** for you.
“‘Log in to Instagram or Twitter and call me out yourself.'”
Jake Paul goaded Tommy Fury on Instagram
It appears a potential money-spinning fight could be given the green light after Tommy fell right into his trap.
He posted a video on Twitter saying: “I see someone is having a little bit of something to say… Mr Jake Paul.
“I don’t need anybody to do my dirty work, I’ll call you out myself right now.
“You can fight me, any place, any time, anywhere. All you’ve got to do is get in touch.”
Light-heavyweight Tommy extended his record to 5-0 with his routine win over Williams.
His potential opponent Paul is 2-0 with as many knockout since turning pro in 2020.
He beat online rival ‘AnEsonGib’ before leaving ex-NBA star Nate Robinson, 36, out cold in November on the undercard of Mike Tyson’s comeback fight.
Paul’s next fight is on April 17, facing retired UFC welterweight Ben Askren, 36.
