      Despite a first career defeat, a battered and bruised Paul was in good spirits at his post-fight press conference.
      He called out Drake after it emerged the rap star had bet $400,000 on the Cleveland native winning by knockout.
      The 34-year-old was in line for a $1.4million payout if Jake had succeeded.
      Drake is renowned for his outrageous sporting wagers, which infamously ‘curse’ the team or individual he’s bet on.

      And Paul was more than happy to joke that Sunday’s devastating loss was all Champagne Papi’s fault.
      When asked about the wager, Jake laughed: “F***! This is Drake’s fault!
      “Drake, bro, why did you do this to me?”
      The ‘Drake curse’ is a near ten-year phenomenon and started out when the artist became part of a Kentucky college basketball program.

      Since then, Drake has been seen to ‘curse’ sporting events ranging from the Super Bowl to the Champions League soccer final.
      But Paul didn’t want to blame his loss completely on superstition, insisting he would come back stronger in a potential rematch.
      Jake continued: “No, it’s my fault. $400,000 is nothing to him – he has won a lot more money betting on me before.
      “He’s probably about even now. Sorry Drake, I’ll get that W in the rematch.”
      Fury broke down in tears after getting up off the floor to beat Paul on points in the Saudi dust-up.
      Two judges scored the bout 76-73 in the Brit’s favor with one going 75-74 to Paul, who scored a knockdown in the final round.
      Fury’s cleaner boxing throughout saw him narrowly win the crunch clash, which he dedicated to girlfriend Molly-Mae Hague and new baby daughter Bambi. More

      That is because Fury backed his brother to stop YouTuber Paul before the final bell, which he failed to do.
      Ahead of the clash the Brit revealed he had staked a large wager on Tommy delivering a KO.
      He told iFL TV: “Tommy knocks out 90 per cent of people that he spars with or drops them at least, so he’s a very hard puncher and Jake Paul will find that out tomorrow.

      “I’ve got 100 racks on it for an inside the distance stoppage, so if he loses, then I’ll lose 100 bags as well. I’ve got him at 3-1. I know Tommy is going to knock him out.
      “What is a little bit stupid is I see all these experts and professional boxers picking Jake Paul over Tommy. I’m like, ‘What the hell are these guys watching?’.
      “Because Tommy will absolutely deck him. I think Tommy can get him out of there whenever really. It’ll definitely be inside the distance and it won’t be a points job for sure. Tommy wins by knockout.
      “I can smell the fear and he [Jake] is rattling. He is rattling like a little b**** and he is going to get knocked out.”

      Tonight I became Tommy Fury
      Tommy Fury’s cleaner boxing throughout the final round saw him win the fight of his life, which he dedicated to girlfriend Molly-Mae Hague and baby daughter Bambi.
      He said: “Tonight I made my own legacy. I am Tommy Fury.

      KSI next?
      Fury said: “At the end of the day KSI can sit back in his chair in London and says what he wants.”
      He confirms he would take the fight with dad John agreeing.
      Doubling down
      Fury is adamant he will knock Jake out in the rematch.
      He admits there was huge pressure on his shoulders but still delivered on the big stage.
      John Fury approves
      Big John says Jake Paul can now call himself a professional boxer.
      He even goes on to hail the YouTuber-turned prizefighter.
      Maybe there won’t be so much needle in the rematch.
      Rematch?
      Fury says: “One hundred per cent. This was my first main event the world was watching me.”
      He expects to stop Jake Paul in their rematch.
      Here comes Tommy
      The victor is about to address the media.
      We will keep you updated.
      Paul adds…
      “That was a good fight, he was impressed by my skill.
      “It was cool, I love the sport for this reason, you can be enemies before, beat the blood out of each other, and then afterwards there is respect there.
