    Jake Paul says KSI is ‘next up on the list’ of opponents after Tommy Fury fight but claims YouTube rival is ‘scared’

    JAKE PAUL said KSI is ‘next up on the list’ of opponents after his fight with Tommy Fury – but claimed his YouTube rival is ‘scared’. Paul faces Fury, brother to WBC heavyweight champion Tyson, on December 18 in Miami, which was exclusively revealed by SunSport.

    KSI was accused of being ‘scared’ to fight Jake Paul
    But the social media sensation is already thinking in the future, and called out KSI – real name Olajide Olayinka Williams Olatunji – as his last British rival.
    Paul, 24, said on his YouTube channel: “I’ve taken everyone out from the UK. Deji, Joe Weller, Gib, KSI’s scared – he’s really next up on the list.
    “And we see how they are in fights, all of them have cracked, all of them have lost, once they get on the big stage with me, he’s gonna crack.”
    Paul first started boxing in August 2018 and beat KSI’s brother Deji in an exhibition bout.
    He then won his professional debut against ‘AnEsonGib’ in 2020, one year after filming a sparring session with Weller.
    KSI, 28, meanwhile, has twice boxed Paul’s older brother Logan, 26, drawing the first before winning their rematch a year later in November 2019.

    He won by scrappy-split decision but has not returned to the ring yet, while Paul has since improved to 4-0 ahead of his return against Fury, 22.
    Pro boxer Viddal Riley, who is 4-0 himself and competed in the youth Olympics as an amateur, helped train KSI in both fights against Logan.
    But Paul believes he can beat Riley himself, as he once again took another shot at KSI.
    He said: “I would beat Viddal, that’s the level that this has gotten to.
    “It used to be Viddal is training KSI to come and beat me, but that guy’s scared, I believe I am better than Viddal, 110 per cent.
    “People will go, ‘Haha, this kid’s crazy, oh my god’ – after I beat Tommy? Who knows, look I have nothing but respect for Viddal.
    “I think he’s a dope guy, we squashed our beef, I’m not talking s***, I just personally think I’m better. He’s great, I just think I’m better.
    “F*** KSI at this point, right? Might as well make that fight happen. After I beat Tommy, he’ll be the only one from the UK left.”

    Tyson will return to Vegas – where he beat Deontay Wilder on Ocotber 9 – to help train TommyCredit: Social Media – Refer to Source
    The Gypsy King is set to fly out to Las Vegas to help Tommy prepare for his fight against Paul after beating Deontay Wilder in Sin City earlier this month.
    And writing on Instagram after seeing the news Paul bragged how other legendary professionals had tried and failed to lead his opponents to victory.
    He wrote: “Love this. My previous opponents have had coaching from Floyd Mayweather (twice) & and the legendary Freddie Roach to no success.. and now Tyson will try and help lil Timmy.”
    Instead of enlisting the help of a professional, Paul has claimed he will hire the services of viral social media star Hasbulla.
    He said: “Official announcement: It’s confirmed that Hasbulla will be coming to my camp in a few weeks to train and corner me for this fight.”
    The outspoken YouTuber then offered a poll to his fans, asking “Which coach will win?” and a picture of Fury and Hasbulla next to each other.

    Russian Hasbulla has a genetic disorder that gives him childlike characteristics such as stunted growth and a high voice.
    He was seen at UFC 267 at the weekend and hilariously punched the legendary Daniel Cormier.
    Rivals Tommy, 22, and Paul, 24, will finally meet in Tampa on December 18 after a war of words on social media.
    SunSport exclusively revealed the fight was booked in for that date last week and it’s now official.
    YouTuber turned boxer Paul is unbeaten in four fights, while Fury has not lost in seven professional bouts.
    But The Gypsy King is expecting an easy victory for his brother, and has threatened to change Tommy’s last name if he fails to beat Paul.
    Tyson said: “If Tommy can’t splatter Jake Paul, I’ll retire him from boxing myself.
    “He’s got ambitions of being a world champion, never mind beating some YouTube guy.
    “His name’s Fury. If he can’t beat Jake Paul, I’ll have to change his name.”

    Tyson Fury and Dillian Whyte contine to have some verbal sparring
    Speaking about Fury, Whyte revealed in 2020 that he had “dropped him on multiple occasions” in a sparring session.
    Now the Brixton Bodysnatcher has said he decided to reveal all after becoming sick of Fury’s taunts.
    ‘TWO-SIDED GUY’
    Speaking on The AK and Barak Show, Whyte said: “Yeah, well he starting saying stuff about me so I said come on you know what happened in the gym.
    “You know what went down. I never went out and said anything he did. But Fury is a very two-sided guy.
    “Like sometimes he says something and you think the dudes cool and I ain’t got a beef with him then. The next minute he starts talking a load of rubbish.
    “You’re like, ‘Are we cool, are we beefing or are you talking sense. What’s going on?'”
    Fury previously said that he has beaten Whyte in the gym many times, describing him as a “heavy bag on legs”.
    WHYTE TAKING LEGAL ACTION
    This clearly riled Whyte, and with him now the next in line for Fury’s WBC belt, their rivalry shows no signs of simmering down.
    Fury even claimed that Wilder was only in fighting mood because he was protected by the coronavirus lockdown.
    The Gypsy King posted on Twitter: “Funny how everyone wants to fight during Covid-19, when there are no sports events happening.

    “Also I have a contract with the @bronzebomber first and when I win that I’ll have the fight with Joshua as undisputed comes before mandatory. Happy hunting.”
    SunSport reported how Whyte has taken legal action against the WBC over his mandatory title fight with Fury – after the Gypsy King agreed to fight Joshua.
    Whyte was left fuming after being overlooked yet again, seeking advice on his legal standpoint.

    And Fury’s girlfriend Molly-Mae Hague is eagerly anticipating the clash, tweeting: “Time to get the job done baby.”
    That has provoked a response from Paul’s partner, Julia Rose.
    The reality TV star replied to Molly-Mae saying: “Alright… let’s make a bet then.”
    And to further incite a reaction from the Fury camp Paul added: “She wonn’tttttt.”
    The Youtuber has a history of placing bets on his fights, with Tyron Woodley forced to get a ‘I love Jake Paul’ tattoo after losing to him in August.
    Paul also wound up the former UFC fighter by offering to double his pay packet if he won, with the catch that if he lost, he would have to donate his earnings to charity.

    Unsurprisingly, Woodley decided not to take him up on that offer.
    Fury could rise to Paul’s challenge however, as he has matched him for trash talk over the last few months.
    He also met face-to-face with ‘Problem Child’ after his fight with Woodley to challenge him to a bout.
    So just like half-brother Tyson, Tommy is not afraid to put his money where his mouth is, and may encourage Molly-Mae to take up Rose on her offer of a bet.
    But as yet the former Love Island star is yet to respond. More

    Chantelle Cameron beats Mary McGee on points to become unified champion… and will now challenge for undisputed gold

    CHANTELLE CAMERON was crowned unified light-welterweight champion after beating Mary McGee – and puts herself one win away from undisputed glory. Cameron saw off McGee over ten rounds, in what was promoted to headliner at the O2 Arena after Dillian Whyte pulled out of fighting Otto Wallin with a shoulder injury.

    She added the IBF and Ring Magazine titles to her collection while making sure her WBC belt went back home with her to Northampton. 
    Cameron will now await the winner between Kali Reis, 35, and Jessica Camara, 33, where the WBO and WBA titles will be on the line on November 19. 
    But the British star has no preference who prevails, but was quick to praise rugged McGee after ten frantic rounds. 
    Camerson said: “She was tough, she took some shots, I always thought she’d be tough and powerful, she’s a really tough girl.  
    “It doesn’t matter who I face next I’m taking the belts anyway.
    “It feels amazing, thank you Eddie, thank you to all the fans for supporting me.”

    Cameron, 30, was the slicker operator throughout, often managing to walk McGee, 35, onto shots, as the American did not stop coming forward.  
    She chose to box the majority of the fight on the back foot, controlling it with her jab, but put enough distance between herself and McGee as the more accurate puncher. 
    Cameron landed the more eye-catching shots during the action, with both her left hook and right hands.
    McGee to her credit did not stop coming forward even until the final bell, but was outclassed as she was beaten on points by a verdict of 100-90, 99-91, and 99-92.

    Jake Paul beat ex-UFC champion Tyron Woodley
    On the undercard, his sparring partner Anthony Taylor was outpointed over four rounds by Fury, the little brother to heavyweight champion Tyson.
    It set up the celebrity fighting rivals for a December 18 grudge match in Miami, which was exclusively revealed by SunSport.
    Paul, 24, believes Fury, 22, is an easier fight than Woodley, 39, as he took confidence from the 2019 Love Island star’s performance against Taylor, 32.
    He said on his YouTube channel: “His whole family is underestimating my ability and how good I am as a boxer.
    “Tommy Fury couldn’t do anything to harm my sparring partner Anthony Taylor. All love to Anthony Taylor, but height difference, weight difference.
    “He didn’t do a single thing to Anthony and there were points where Anthony was in control, winning, landing harder punches.
    “So, look what I’m going to do to this guy. It’s going to be a massacre, a Boston Tea Party 2.0. I’m taking this motherf***er and throwing him overboard.”

    Paul beat online rival ‘AnEsonGib’, ex-NBA player Nate Robinson and retired UFC welterweight Ben Askren, both 37, before his win over Woodley.
    Fury is 7-0 but has never boxed past four rounds and Paul reckons his opponent is ‘going to crack’ under pressure.
    He said: “Tommy, he’s a great boxer, he’s undefeated, he’s got fast hands, he’s quick, he comes from a legendary bloodline, so long and so forth.
    “I just think that boy will crack under pressure. And I’ve taken out everyone from the UK. Deji, Joe Weller, Gib, KSI’s scared, he’s really next up on the list.
    “And we see how they are in fights, all of them have cracked, all of them have lost. Once they get on the big stage against me, he’s (Fury) going to crack.
    “To answer it, I think Tommy is an easier fight than Tyron for sure. And I think I knock him out, for sure.
    “And I know I said that about Tyron, but that’s really the only time I’ve been wrong.
    “Tyron, he came ready to fight that night and he’s been hit by some big guys. Tommy’s never even been past four rounds. We’ll see what happens.”
