But Love Island hunk Fury is seemingly so desperate to put an end to their feud that he’s willing to give up a lucrative purse to get his hands on the YouTuber.

The 23-year-old said: “Once again I’m seeing Jake Paul s**t all over the internet.

“You offered Paddy Pimblett a million pound to spar.

“You offered Tyson a million-pound bet about some b****cks or other.

“But you don’t want to pay me much more to have a fight.

“Well I’ll go one better than that cause it’s gone past money for me now – I’m not bothered.

“I’ll fight you for free in Manchester or London, next month.

“Not a problem. So let’s see how game you are.

“Promoters get nothing whose trying to take everything, me and you get nothing, all proceeds will go to charity.

“I just want to fight you and put an end to you, because all this money and everything – it’s gone on too long. Take it or leave it.”

SunSport understands Paul vs Fury is tentatively slated to take place in Saud Arabia on February 25.

But former Disney actor Paul insists he’s willing to fight Fury on enemy territory a week earlier.

The Problem Child told The Mirror: “I have done everything in my power to make the fight happen against this 8-0 boxer, including offering to go to Manchester on February 18 in partnership with Frank and George Warren.

“I’m looking at any other alternative to make this fight work.”

Fury hasn’t set foot in the ring since his Dubai exhibition with Rolly Lambert last November.

Paul, meanwhile, was last in action last October against former UFC middleweight champion Anderson Silva.
