Molly-Mae should definitely not watch me fight Tommy Fury… it’ll end in tears, says Jake Paul ahead of bitter bout


JAKE PAUL has brutally warned Molly-Mae Hague not to watch his fight with Tommy Fury – or it will end in tears.

The American star will end over two years of feuding his Brit rival in a grudge match on Sunday in Saudi Arabia.

Fury is joined in the Middle East by his whole entourage, including dad John and heavyweight champion brother Tyson.

But one noticeable absentee so far has been girlfriend Molly-Mae, who is at home in Manchester with new-born baby daughter Bambi.

It remains to be seen if she will make the 4,000 mile trip over in person or tune in on pay-per-view – but Paul suggests doing neither.

He told SunSport in Riyadh: “She’s going to cry, no one wants to see that. She shouldn’t watch the fight, definitely not.”

Paul has beaten ex-MMA champions in Ben Askren, Tyron Woodley, and most recently UFC great Anderson Silva.

But never has he faced an opponent with prior professional boxing experience, with Fury, 23, marking his first.

The YouTuber believes the step up in competition, and an emphatic enough win, will finally bring the respect he feels is owed.

Paul, 26, said: “I know I’m going to win but my goal is to knock him out and I know I’m capable of that if I excuse my game plan properly.

“So I think knocking out the professional boxer in a cold, decisive, crazy way like I knock people out, that will get the respect. 

“If it’s just a win, I think people will admit I can really box but it won’t be the full level of respect that I think I deserve. I have to earn it though on Sunday.” 

Paul has been dismissed so much Fury has agreed to RETIRE from boxing and give up his purse if he loses.

But the prankster-turned-prizefighter expects to leave his rival with no other choice but to respect him – like has been the case for all his fights.

Paul said: “After I knock him out I hope he realises that I’m just a really good fighter. 

“I think that’s what all my other opponents realised, they feel less bad about it the more people I beat. He shouldn’t feel bad. 

“I’ve put Anderson Silva down, I’ve put Woodley down, I’m going to put him down. It’s not that big of a deal when you look at it like that.”
