TOMMY FURY and dad John have been branded “frauds” by Jake Paul as negotiations over their grudge match rumble on.
The social media stars have once again agreed to settle their differences inside the ring, with a February showdown currently mooted.
Former Love Islander Fury, however, is unhappy at the purse split on offer and recently vented his frustrations on social media.
That prompted a scathing retort from Paul, who said: “You and your papa are both frauds.
“My team and I will never risk a quid on you again.
“I’m not paying you a pence you dimwit so there’s no old agreement/terms.

“My team has spoken to the Warrens multiple times this week and the deal is your promoter is paying you. Sign the paperwork.”
Fury and Paul, 23 and 25 respectively, have twice been scheduled to face one another but have yet to share the ring.
Injury and illness to Fury laid waste to their first proposed meeting last December, with visa issues scuppering their second clash in August.
And Fury has claimed the current offer on the table is the same one he received for their last scheduled bout.

“I’m ready and waiting to get this over the line.”
