      “I expected Tommy to knock him out, to be quite honestly quite comfortably, but Jake was better than I thought he’d be, so fair play to Jake Paul…
      “He’ll (Tommy) be headlining now forever. I’d like to see him fight a rematch with Jake Paul and fight Logan, his brother.”
      However, since the fight, a row has ensued regarding the payouts following a bet which the pair shook hands on.

      But Paul has hit back, claiming both Tommy and John refused to sign the deal.
      In response, Paul’s manager, Nakisa Bidarian, said: “Dear John – congratulations on the win.
      “I’ve grown to highly respect you off camera.

      The younger Paul brother, 26, endured the first defeat of his career on Sunday, falling to Fury via split decision.

      He said: “If you don’t [have a rematch], I’d like to handle that… That was like my first instinct, obviously.”
      Their mum Pamela Stepnick then cut in: “I think what you said was, ‘I’m going to kill that kid’.”

      Logan then continued: “Yeah that’s what I said. He’s my little brother. F*** that. Inflatable arm ass, motherf***er. F***.”
      Jake then suggested that they could avenge each other’s losses – having been linked to a bout with Logan’s conqueror KSI.

      He said: “Tommy will be headlining now forever. I’d like to see him fight a rematch with Jake Paul and fight Logan, his brother.”

      Sophie says she saw “fear” in Paul’s eyes as she cheered Tyson Fury’s younger brother Tommy to a split-decision victory.

      Sophie, 30. told the Daily Star: “Even I could knock Jake Paul out!
      “Now that his career has ended maybe he can join me in Barnsley and help me beat up these dudes for extra cash or maybe he can be my dummy that I practise on.”
