    Jake Paul jokes Tyson Fury ‘might have finally earned the chance’ to fight him after Gypsy King KOs Deontay Wilder

    JAKE PAUL joked Tyson Fury ‘might have finally earned the chance’ to fight him after an epic trilogy win over Deontay Wilder. Fury, who drew with Wilder in 2018 but won the rematch two years later, put the rivalry beyond any doubt.

    He brutally knocked the American out in round 11 – after twice having to pick himself up from the floor in round four.
    Fury, 33, scored a total of three knockdowns before dramatically closing the show.
    Afterwards, YouTube star Paul, 24, tweeted: “I think Tyson Fury might have finally earned the chance to fight me.”
    Fury’s little brother Tommy, 22, was ringside for the stunning performance but revealed beforehand talks to fight Paul are intensifying.
    He said on BT Box Office: “Things are looking good, I can’t say too much as I leave that up to my lawyers.
    “But things are looking good, stay tuned.” 

    BETTING SPECIAL: GET 30/1 ON FURY OR 50/1 ON WILDER FOR HEAVYWEIGHT BOXING CLASH
    Paul is 4-0 in his career, most recently beating ex-UFC champion Tyron Woodley, 39, on points over eight rounds.
    That followed after knockouts over YouTube rival ‘AnEsonGib, ex-NBA star Nate Robinson and retired UFC welterweight Ben Askren, both 37.
    Fury is 7-0 with his most last win on Paul’s undercard, against the social media sensation’s sparring partner Anthony Taylor, 32.
    Afterwards, the pair began talks to fight but hit a standstill over the purse.
    Paul publicly offered Fury, who featured on reality TV show Love Island, $1million, plus what SunSport understands to be bonuses on pay-per-view sales.

    He then followed it up by wagering an extra $500,000 if he loses the fight.
    But if Fury lost, he would have to legally change his name to ‘Tommy Fumbles’ for a year.
    That bet was accepted by the British light-heavyweight, who said: “Do we have a deal?
    “Get that sent over to my lawyers right now and we’ll get that looked over and sorted. There’s not a chance in hell you’re winning this fight.
    “You’re leaving on a stretcher, you’re getting knocked spark out, and you know it. Get it over to me now.”

    But Fury, in America to watch big brother Tyson’s trilogy bout with Deontay Wilder, hinted a deal could be close.
    He said on BT Box Office: “Things are looking good, I can’t say too much as I leave that up to my lawyers.
    “But things are looking good, stay tuned.” 
    Paul, 24, is 4-0 in his career, most recently beating ex-UFC champion Tyron Woodley, 39, on points over eight rounds.
    That followed after knockouts over YouTube rival ‘AnEsonGib, ex-NBA star Nate Robinson and retired UFC welterweight Ben Askren, both 37.

    “There’s not a chance in hell you’re winning this fight. You’re leaving on a stretcher, you’re getting knocked spark out, and you know it.
    “Get it over to me now.”
    The offer came after WBC heavyweight champion Tyson said he would have to change Tommy’s name, if he could not beat Paul.
    He told Boxing Social: “If Tommy can’t splatter Jake Paul, I’ll retire him from boxing myself. If he can’t beat Jake Paul, forget about boxing.
    “Because he’s got ambitions of being a world champion, never mind beating some YouTube guy.
    “But it’s a great fight for the social media world and for all the kids out there who support them both.
    “It’s a great fight to watch, it’s a spectacle. But Tommy – his name’s Fury. If he can’t beat Jake Paul, I’ll have to change his name.”

    Tommy Fury says Jake Paul ‘doesn’t want any part of me’ and saw ‘plenty of fear’ in rival after backstage confrontation

    TOMMY FURY claims he saw ‘plenty of fear’ in Jake Paul after their backstage confrontation and insists: “He doesn’t want any part of me.”Fury, 22, in August beat Paul’s sparring partner Anthony Taylor, 32, on his American debut.

    Later in the night, Paul, 24, beat ex-UFC champion Tyron Woodley, 39, on points in his biggest win to date.
    Afterwards, he went face-to-face with Fury before their opposing teams clashed with security forced to intervene.
    Fury, brother to WBC heavyweight champion Tyson, recalled the incident with Paul and told BT Sport he sensed ‘something in his eyes’.
    He said: “He come down the corridor, he was acting the big I am. I was doing an interview with BT.
    “And I turned around he was coming and that was it. I thought listen, if he’s going to say anything, he’s going to say it now.
    “So, we squared up, had a little tit for tat, but I’ve seen something in his eyes, and I saw it there and then.

    “When we squared up, I looked at him and he doesn’t want any part of me, definitely not.
    “I’ve seen plenty of fear in his eyes and he had about 40 security guards around him and everything and he still had fear in his eyes.
    “Always looking away, looking down. I put it on him and said you need to stop running and take the fight.”
    Since the altercation, Fury has rejected two deals to fight Paul, believing they were not even ‘worth addressing’.
    Paul publicly offered the 2019 Love Island star $1million and SunSport understands additional bonuses are included depending on pay-per-view success.
    Talks are still ongoing between the two camps but Fury has been warned the online offer is their third and final.

    Tyron Woodley in twitter spat with ex-MMA star Dan Hardy after Brit accused him of faking ‘I love Jake Paul’ tattoo

    TYRON WOODLEY has been accused of faking his ‘I love Jake Paul’ tattoo by British ex-UFC star Dan Hardy.The American claims to have got to inked in a bid to earn a lucrative rematch with YouTuber Paul but Hardy doesn’t believe him.

    Woodley, 39, posted a picture of his alleged new tattoo on Twitter on Monday – and Hardy was quick to respond.
    The Brit, 39, tweeted: “So you left out the ‘love’ part and it’s written in pen? Well played.
    “It looks like a tattoo your friend did when you were both drunk.
    “An embarrassing tattoo is one thing, but a bad embarrassing tattoo is a whole other.”
    Hardy competed in UFC between 2008 and 2012, winning 25 and losing 10 of his 36 professional MMA bouts.
    The retired fighter challenged once for the welterweight UFC title, losing to Canadian Georges St-Pierre in March 2010.

    Hardy never did fight Woodley but the two have made up for the lost time with the American responding: “Your UFC career is embarrassing.
    “Your claim to fame is you got stomped by GSP and didn’t die. Everything was by design. I’ll keep setting trends while you tweet.”
    Woodley claims to have got the tattoo after he and Paul, 24, agreed the loser of their August pay-per-view scrap would get inked.
    The UFC icon is keen for a rematch with the YouTuber and has accused him of being ‘scared to fight’.
    Paul is yet to respond to Woodley’s alleged tattoo and claims he’ll post a video in regards to the ink on Tuesday.
    Hardy later replied to Woodley again, tweeting: “You’re trending because you’ve got Jake Paul tattooed on your finger.
    “Well done. Congratulations on your championship success.
    “I remember the crowds booing in appreciation as you wore your heel out against the fence, backing up and avoiding the fight.”
    Woodley then replied: “Belts and titles. Things you dreamed of. They cheered as you were carried out on a stretcher.
    “Champs now were in diapers last time you fought. Keep living your dream on the bag in your garage. From Outlaw to Uber driver.”
    The row ended with Hardy adding: “We’re the same age, you fool.
    “It’s just that I was competing in the UFC a bit earlier, during the reign of the greatest welterweight champion of all time. You came after.”

    Jake Paul sends Tyron Woodley brutal five-point response after ex-UFC champ gets tattoo in hope of earning rematch

    JAKE PAUL poked fun at Tyron Woodley after he went through with their bet and got a tattoo.Paul defeated Woodley on points last month in a boxing fight where the two contestants put together a wager in which the loser would get a humiliating new set of ink.

    Thus, the former MMA star got “I love Jake Paul” inked on his middle finger to secure a rematch with the YouTube star.
    But a rematch seems unlikely as the 24-year-old seems to have moved on and is negotiating a fight with Tommy Fury.
    That didn’t stop the YouTuber from taking a swipe at Woodley claiming he got the tattoo because he already spent the purse from their fight.
    Paul issued the following statement: “1. Tyron got the wire from the fight 2. Tyron bought a used Bentley 3. Tyron got on a call with his accountant 4. His accountant told him how much he had to pay in taxes 5. Tyron got the tattoo.”
    The YouTuber made Fury a “final” offer of $1million for an eight-round fight last week.
    However, the British boxer’s representatives immediately rejected that bid.

    Paul tweeted: “This is the last time I am speaking about this guy, he is about to fumble the biggest bag of his life.
    “I made you famous and give you the biggest debut of your life, and gave you a chance to shine in front of the whole world.
    “And I have made you an offer which is quadruple the best payday of your career which I gave you to fight me, so for everyone at home this is what happens when you give someone clout.
    “I have dozens of other fighters every week Tommy, you are replaceable.”
    However, Fury insists that a fight against Paul is worth more than $1m.

    However, the 22-year-old claimed he is still open to discuss a better deal with the American.
    Fury posted on Instagram: “I just wanted to come on here and address a few things that Jake Paul has been saying that I have denied two offers to fight him.
    “That is true, as those offers weren’t even worth addressing, and now he has come out and said that he wants to give me a $1million to fight him and I just want to say this.
    “To everybody out there, $1million for a fight of this magnitude is not even worth getting out of bed for, this fight is going to gross millions and millions of pounds.
    “I cannot walk down the street without anybody asking me when are you fighting Jake Paul, so until you want to make a serious offer and put it on the table, we can’t think about fighting pal.”
    Jake Paul says if Tyron Woodley gets his ‘I love Jake Paul’ tattoo done quickly they can talk about a rematch More

    Jake Paul’s advisor says Tommy Fury isn’t ‘focussed on boxing’ as much as YouTuber and slams ‘comical’ snub to $1m deal

    TOMMY FURY has been told he is not as ‘focussed on boxing’ as much as Jake Paul and rejecting $1million to fight his rival was ‘comical’. Fury publicly admitted he declined two offers to face Paul and responded ‘get your figures up and then we can talk’.

    The YouTube star then responded by bumping the deal up to $1m and was even putting money from his ‘own pocket’ into the package.
    But again Fury shot down the effort, believing he was being lowballed and stated $1m was ‘not even worth getting out of bed for’.
    Nakisa Bidarian, Paul’s advisor and founder of talent firm BAVAFA Sports, hit out at the response, which he called laughable.
    Bidarian told SunSport: “There’s no base of fans that are proven to be purchasers of Tommy Fury, Jake is now going into his third headline pay-per-view.
    “He’s doing numbers that are bigger than any boxer in the US other than Canelo, who is at a different price point.
    “So it’s not even a discussion of what they want, we’re giving them an unbelievable offer and more so if you really believe in yourself.

    BETTING SPECIAL – GET JOSHUA TO WIN IN ROUNDS 1-6 AT 60/1 OR ANYTIME AT 25/1
    “This is four times, five times what you’ve ever made plus upside.
    “Go in, beat Jake, be the new face of this movement and guess what? Jake’s probably going to want a rematch.
    “And then you can dictate terms. But until then, you’re coming into Jake’s promotion, to Jake’s event, this is an unbelievable offer.
    “More than most UFC champions get as a guaranteed base. It’s comical them saying it’s not worth getting out of bed for.”
    Paul, 24, is in talks to fight Fury, 22, by the end of the year and is set to start training for his return to the ring.
    In the meantime, he has continued his internet feud with the former reality TV star, who in 2019 featured on Love Island.
    Paul was quick to mock Fury after footage emerged of the 7-0 light-heavyweight dancing topless in a nightclub.
    And Bidarian argued it highlighted the difference in commitment between the two boxers.
    I’m not sure Tommy Fury is focussed on boxing the way Jake is. Here we are four weeks removed and I’m not seeing Tommy training, I’m seeing other videos of Tommy out in the public domain.Jake Paul’s advisor Nakisa Bidarian
    He said: “I’m not sure Tommy Fury is focussed on boxing the way Jake is.
    “Here we are four weeks removed and I’m not seeing Tommy training, I’m seeing other videos of Tommy out in the public domain.
    “If he really is serious about his career, this really is the absolute best offer that could ever present itself.”
    Bidarian has already warned the latest online offer will be their third and final.
    And he fears Fury will miss out on facing Paul, much like Conor McGregor’s training partner Dillon Danis did this year.
    Danis, 28, was offered the chance to fight Paul in March, but rejected it, citing an injury to his knee.
    Retired UFC welterweight Ben Askren, 37, was instead given the opportunity and was then knocked out in April.
    Bidarian said: “It reminds me of Dillon Danis, who had the opportunity when Jake considered fighting him.
    “Jake made a couple of very, very good offers to him, again multiple of what he’s usually paid.

    “And he outpriced himself or didn’t want to fight, we’re not sure what one, and that fight’s now never going to happen, Jake’s moved past that.
    “It doesn’t make sense to fight someone’s that’s 2-0 in MMA against not very good opponents. I think Tommy has the potential to do that to himself.
    “It would be disappointing, he’s a fine young man who’s worked to get to this stage and I hope he capitalises on it.”
