TOMMY FURY has confirmed he will step into the ring to fight Jake Paul again.
Fury was pictured on Good Morning Britain as he made his first TV appearance since his victory over Paul, showing off a plastered eye in the process.
Speaking on the programme, Fury has now confirmed his intention to face off against the YouTuber-turned-boxer once again.
He said: “The rematch is something that I’m definitely wanting because I believe in the rematch I will stop him.
“You know [in] the first fight I’ve never been eight rounds before so you’re just a bit weary of what’s in your tank and how the fight is going to go.
“But I’ve now been in the ring with him once, I know what to expect.”
