      Tyson Fury’s DMs to Jake Paul LEAKED as YouTuber gives scathing verdict on Love Island star’s comeback fight

      by

      JAKE PAUL revealed Tyson Fury has been DMing him behind the scenes to try and arrange a rematch for his brother Tommy.YouTuber-turned-boxer Paul suffered his first and so far only defeat to Tommy in a 2023 split-decision loss in Saudi Arabia. Jake Paul says Tyson Fury has been DMing him about rematching his brother TommyCredit: The AH ShowTyson Fury with his younger brother TommyCredit: Social Media – Refer to sourceSince then, the American has won five on the spin and most recently against heavyweight legend Mike Tyson in November. The bout was marred in controversy due to Tyson coming out of retirement aged 58 but still 100 MILLION watched on Netflix. Paul’s camp say Fury turned down a £6million offer to rematch on Netflix before Tyson accepted the deal. Fury meanwhile returned after nearly two years out with victory in Hungary against Bosnian Kenan Hanjalic. READ MORE IN BOXINGBut Paul told Ariel Helwani: “I think the Fury fight will happen in the next 12 months, yeah. He just has to be realistic about what’s he’s worth, right?”He just had a free fight on DAZN that tanked, couldn’t sell the tickets in wherever he was like a 1,000 person venue and he’s just negotiating like he’s God.”Again, I have ten names waiting to fight me in multiple different sports, MMA, boxing, all this stuff. “These people just have to be realistic about what they’re wanting to get paid and Tommy Fury isn’t.Most read in BoxingCASINO SPECIAL – BEST CASINO BONUSES FROM £10 DEPOSITS”But I DM’d Tyson Fury because Tyson was like, ‘You guys need to make this happen now.’ “I was like, ‘Tyson, you’ve got to put your brother in check here. He’s not going to get this money or this offer anywhere else.’Tommy Fury calls out ‘b****’ Jake Paul after making boxing comeback after 18 months”He already missed out on the massive opportunity on Netflix, his dad, who is his manager has no idea what the f*** he’s doing and you can’t let your dad run your career.”Tommy’s not his own boss, he’s an airhead as well so I just feel bad for him because he thinks he’s worth more than what he’s worth.” Fury, 26, beat KSI, 31, in October 2023 but had to have hand surgery in the aftermath before his comeback fight. Paul, 28, returns on June 28 against former middleweight world champion Julio Cesar Chavez Jr, 39, in a cruiserweight clash. And he has a rematch with Fury in his sights, saying: “I just can’t wait to get back in there with this guy because in the past three years, I fought him two years into being a pro boxer now it’s been three years since then.”It’s just night and day and he hasn’t got any better, right? He’s been boxing since he was six years old, it’s going to be the same stuff, same coach, his dumbass dad.”He hasn’t got any better so I just can’t wait, seriously I can’t wait to get in there with him and whenever we can make that happen it’s going to be Christmas Day for me.”Tommy Fury beat Jake Paul in their 2023 fightCredit: AP More

      Ange Postecoglou does not know his Tottenham history if he thinks Europa League win will save him his job

      by

      IF ANGE POTSECOGLOU believes winning the Europa League could allow him to keep his Spurs job – he doesn’t know his Tottenham history.It was in 1984 that Keith Burkinshaw won his third trophy as Tottenham chief, with Tony Parks’ shoot-out heroics seeing off Anderlecht to win the Uefa Cup.Ange Postecoglou does not know his history if he thinks the Europa League will save his jobCredit: GettyKeith Burkinshaw won the trophy back in 1984 but was still given the bootCredit: GettyPostecoglou’s modern-day Spurs are out to win the same trophy in Bilbao on Wednesday.But like Yorkshireman Burkinshaw, Aussie Ange seems set for the exit door no matter what happens.Although the current Spurs hierarchy have kept their counsel about Postecoglou, back 41 years ago, Burkinshaw’s imminent departure was known for weeks – much to the frustration of his squad.Burkinshaw’s relationship with chairman Irving Scholar, always strained, had broken, irretrievably.READ MORE IN FOOTBALLThe manager believed it was his club, to manage as he saw fit.Scholar believed otherwise.The final, decisive breach came in March on the afternoon of the quarter-final second leg tie at Austria Vienna.Burkinshaw subsequently explained: “About 4pm in the afternoon he came to my bedroom with the assistant chairman.Most read in FootballBEST ONLINE CASINOS – TOP SITES IN THE UK“They said: ‘You’re not going to be allowed to run the club as you’ve been doing. We are going to bring in the players. We’re going to decide how much they will get as wages.’“And it went on and on. I said: ‘Don’t you think this is the wrong time to be coming in here, at 4pm when we’ve got a quarter final at quarter to eight….?’How Europa League final will be decided – four key Man Utd vs Tottenham tactical battles“That started it all off. In the end I knew he’d been looking for another manager. I knew of it. And he’d made a proposal to one of them.”That “another manager” was, in fact, Alex Ferguson, with Scholar under the impression that the then-Aberdeen boss wanted to come down to London.Burkinshaw and Scholar agreed there was only one way to resolve their differences, with his players turning his imminent departure into a cause.Graham Roberts, who skippered the side for the second leg in the absence of the suspended Steve Perryman, said: “We wanted to win it so much, not just for ourselves but also for Keith, because we all knew it was his last game at the club.“But it was a Cup Final, in front of our own fans. You don’t get the chance to do that very often in a career, if at all. It meant so much.”Burkinshaw’s departure brought one of the most withering farewell comments in the history of the game.Collared by waiting reporters as he walked away for the last time, he was ready to vent.Read More on The SunHe explained: “I was really sick about it. And the way the club was run was being changed.“Clubs were becoming Public Limited Companies. So they were being run as businesses rather than football clubs. So I said to one of the reporters, ‘This used to be a football club here.’”Man Utd vs Spurs – Europa League final: Kick-off time, TV channel and live stream info for Bilbao clash More
