JAKE PAUL came out swinging to aim digs at Tommy Fury and KSI.
The YouTuber-turned-boxer suffered his first and only defeat to Fury in their celebrity grudge match in Saudi Arabia last year.
Paul is determined to get a rematch, while Fury has made unwanted headlines for his break-up with Molly-Mae Hague.
The pair announced their split amid cheating allegations which Fury has denied – but Paul still took the chance to mock his rival.
Asked for the first word that entered his head when thinking about Fury – who could now reconcile with Molly-Mae – he told the Daily Mail: “Single.”
Fury, 25, has not returned to the ring since controversially beating KSI, 31, in October having undergone hand surgery in the aftermath.

The fight was a big hit with over ONE MILLION pay-per-view sales – according to organisers.
KSI’s Misfits Boxing promotion put on the event, their biggest since launching in 2022.
Misfits is home to celebrity-style crossover fights, welcoming stars of the social media, TV, boxing and MMA world.
But Paul, who is 10-1, believes he has surpassed that standard of competition as he took a swipe at Misfits.

He said: “Honestly, the other fighters aren’t improving, and I think people are tired of seeing the s*** punches and it just looks sloppy.
“Now that they’re fans of the sport, I think they want to see like, more real, higher level skill. So it’s definitely dying out.”
Paul, 27, makes his return on November 15 against boxing great Mike Tyson, 58, in a fight criticised due to the three decade age difference.
