      But Logan did his best to try and goad his brother’s opponent during an interview mid-fight.
      In full voice, he shouted: “Tommy, if you can hear me, you a b****, bro and you’re gassing out.
      “You a b****, the whole Fury family are a b****.”
      Fury, 23, responded in the best way possible by dominating Jake, 26, that round on his way to a points win.

      And Logan, 27, admitted his masterplan proved to only inspire Fury.
      He said on his podcast: “Some people seem to be upset that I cut a promo mid-fight.
      “What I was trying to do was – because I was on the mic – and you can hear it in the arena and I knew Tommy was sitting in his corner.
      “And Jake was losing, so I just tried to talk s*** and get in Tommy’s head. The issue is, it just p***ed him off.

      “Because the round started and he just f***ing unleashed a gnarly combination on Jake. I was like, ‘I just made him mad.'”
      Fury’s dad John was also left fuming with Logan’s comments and accused the YouTube star of looking for attention by any means necessary.
      John told The Express, via Free Bets: “Absolutely disgusting.
      “Him piping up in a fight like that is not professional, but it just shows you that you are dealing with adolescent children, aren’t you?
      “Because the comments during the fight are just ridiculous. That’s not professional.
      “It doesn’t work, it’s bad for the viewers, it’s bad for everybody involved in it, in the game.
      “But it is what it is, they are what they are, they’re YouTubers. They’ll do anything.
      “They’ll give their left nut up for a viewing figure and he obviously thought it would enhance his status as a YouTuber coming out with all that stupidity. But we knew it was coming anyway.” More

      He revealed: “It depends on what they want to do, but at the moment, Tommy’s put a hard training camp in.
      “We spent 10 weeks in camps, one, two months ready. So, you know, it’s probably going to be later on in the year.
      “I’ve not spoke to people connected to either, you know, so I think Jake Paul’s having a rest, just like we are, and his team and his people, we’ll be on it in due course. We’ve not spoken about anything yet.”

      Tommy Fury to put ‘conventional boxing on the backburner’ after Jake Paul win as dad John calls out TWO YouTube stars

      TOMMY FURY could put conventional boxing on the backburner with his dad John calling out a pair of YouTube boxing stars instead. John cornered and coached his son to victory over social media sensation-turned prizefighter Jake Paul in Saudi Arabia.

      Tommy had vowed to bury his bitter feud with Paul in the Diriyah desert before continuing to build up his boxing record the hard way.
      But after getting a taste of a mega-money payday, John wants his boy to cash in while he can.
      John told The Express, via Free Bets: “I think at this moment in time conventional boxing will have to go on the backburner because boxing is a business, and you have to go where the money is.
      “Whoever is a big name, who brings stuff to the table we’re interested in. Yep, we’re interested in KSI, he can have it next if he wants.

      “We’re interested in the Salt Papi’s of the world, everybody with a name who thinks they can have a go, can have a go. Even with conventional boxing.
      “If they want to pay the same sort of money as these guys are paying, we’ll do the conventional boxing as well, but, after where we’ve been you can’t really box at York Hall, can you?”
      KSI, 29, has had six bouts with no defeats and one draw while Salt Papi, 29, is 3-0 with two knockouts.
      John said: “I think that Salt Papi is quite good. I’ve only seen bits of him, but he brings a lot to the table.

      “So, if he wants it call me. If KSI wants it call me. Whoever wants it, call me. As long as the money is right and it makes business sense we are there.”
      Tommy, 23, is linked with a summer rematch against Paul, 26, but John admitted no official talks have yet taken place.
      He said: “It depends on what they want to do, but at the moment, Tommy’s put a hard training camp in.

      Logan Paul CONFIRMS boxing return in first fight since Floyd Mayweather… and rival says it will be against ex-UFC star

      by

      LOGAN PAUL has CONFIRMED his boxing return – but has tried to keep his opponent a secret. The YouTube, crossover boxing and WWE star has not been in the ring since his June 2021 exhibition with Floyd Mayweather.

      Paul, 27, took Mayweather, 46, the distance and was due to return to boxing in January.
      He was in talks to face 2-0 MMA fighter and online rival Dillon Danis, 29, until a knee injury starring in the WWE ruled him out.
      Well now Paul – while on his podcast with Dave Portnoy – revealed his next fight is set in stone.
      He said: “I’ve got a new opponent. Not said yet. I’ll tell you and we’ll bleep it.”

      Paul then reveals who he will fight, with the sound bleeped, as Portnoy responded: “No s***.”
      And Paul replied: “Cool, right? I don’t know what’s going on either.”
      Danis, a known troll, attempted to hijack the announcement by tweeting: “He ran from me to go fight 1-5 Darren Till.”
      Till, 30, recently hit the headlines after requesting his release from the UFC, having lost his last three fights.

      He added fuel to Danis’ speculation by tweeting an emoji of boxing gloves and a money bag.
      Till himself admitted he would be interested in a switch to the ring against a celebrity star.
      And the ex-UFC welterweight revealed he has been contacted by rival promoters after his release.

      Jake Paul reveals what previous opponent is ‘tougher’ than Tommy Fury and admits ‘biggest thing’ that led to loss

      by

      JAKE PAUL has claimed Tommy Fury was NOT the toughest opponent of his career and opened up about what cost him their fight. The YouTuber-turned boxer fell to his first ever defeat after losing a split-decision in Saudi Arabia.

      But Paul has insisted UFC legend Anderson Silva was tougher than Fury, who he admitted was a good combination puncher.
      On his brother Logan’s podcast, he said: “That is what is p***ing me off the most, that it had nothing to do with him it had everything to do with me.
      “He wasn’t that great, at all, I think Anderson was tougher than him, and I figured out that puzzle. He threw a lot of punches, that’s his biggest thing.”
      Paul, 26, defeated Silva, 47, in October in his last fight before the celebrity grudge match.

      But Fury, 23, was the first recognised boxer the YouTuber-turned prizefighter had faced in his seven-bout career.
      Now the pair look set to rematch in the summer as Paul heaped praise on his British rival.
      Paul said: “He’s definitely blossomed. He’s an overnight superstar and it’s great for him.
      “He’s a good kid and we had a bunch of respect for each other; we spoke in the locker room and he said let’s do the rematch.

      “He seems very level-headed and down to earth. We talked a lot of s*** and did a great job promoting it but there was mutual respect there and we hugged. 
      “I have respect for the guy, that’s the most beautiful thing about this sport.
      “You can be arch-enemies and then find respect for each other after beating the s*** out of each other and going to war.”

      ‘I’m not buying it’ – Jake Paul and Floyd Mayweather accused of staging altercation by Dana White amid fight rumours

      by

      JAKE PAUL and Floyd Mayweather have been accused of staging their street altercation by UFC president Dana White. Paul was filmed fleeing from Mayweather and his entourage and claimed they tried to jump him after a Miami Heat game.

      It has fuelled speculation the rivals could settle the score in the boxing ring, leaving the likes of White skeptical.
      He told TMZ Sports: “I just can’t see Floyd doing that. I can’t see Floyd rolling up on somebody and doing that.
      “It’s not Floyd’s style. It’s not really his personality. I thought it was a skit. I’m not buying it.
      “When’s the last time you saw Floyd Mayweather act like a thug and roll up on somebody with 50 people?

      “That’s just not what Floyd does. Yeah, I’m not buying it.”
      Paul’s feud with Mayweather started two years ago, before his brother Logan’s June 2021 exhibition with the boxing legend.
      The self-proclaimed “Problem Child” stole Mayweather’s cap at a press conference, sparking a mass brawl.
      A month later, Logan, 27, went the eight-round distance in the exhibition bout.

      Paul, 26, has rivalled Mayweather, 46, ever since and called to settle it in the ring – but only in a sanctioned fight with records on the line.
      He tweeted: “Floyd will not see me 1 on 1 in a real fight. That’s a fact. His team has hit my team numerous times to do one of his ‘exhibitions’.
      “Now he ambushes me. Come see me in the ring, real fight, no exhibition robbing fans bulls***.”

      Jake Paul ‘offered THREE dates and locations by KSI’s manager for bitter YouTube grudge match’ after Tommy Fury loss

      by

      JAKE PAUL has been offered THREE dates and venues to fight KSI, it has been claimed. The bitter YouTube rivals were in negotiations to finally settle their score at the end of the year.

      KSI wants to fight Paul but will have to wait until after a rematch with Paul
      But those plans took a hit after Paul suffered defeat for the first time in the ring, losing a split-decision to Tommy Fury in Saudi Arabia in February.
      The American now looks set to exercise his rematch clause with a sequel planned for the summer.
      That is despite KSI’s manager Mams Taylor urging him to forget about Fury to instead focus on the planned grudge match.
      So much so that, according to IfnBoxing, Taylor offered the Paul team three dates and locations to fight KSI this year.

      But the self-proclaimed Problem Child has already spoken out to say he has no interest in fighting KSI until after rematching Fury.
      He said on his brother Logan’s podcast: “Talk is cheap.
      “Let’s just hope he gets into the ring and we can settle all the s*** talk there after I go back and avenge this loss to Tommy Fury.”
      KSI, 29, is in talks to return on May 13 in London against millionaire businessman-turned 9-0 boxer Joe Fournier.

      And he revealed plans to fight again in August and then December before RETIRING from the sport.
      KSI wants to face the winner between Paul, 26, and Fury, 23, but warned he could walk away from his American rival.
      He tweeted: “At this point, after I beat a pro boxer on May 13th, I’m gonna go straight for Tommy Fury.
      “Jake Paul is being long with negotiations.”

      KSI’s Misfits banner has British boxing chiefs ‘concerned’ but YouTuber expected to try for licence for Jake Paul fight

      by

      THE British Boxing Board of Control are “concerned” by KSI’s Misfits Boxing banner – but expect the YouTuber to apply for a professional license. The social media, rap and celebrity boxing star launched Misfits last year to provide a home for crossover bouts.

      They are not sanctioned by the BBBofC and are instead overseen by the Professional Boxing Association in white collar-stye fights.
      Misfits is promoted by experienced brothers Kalle and Nisse Sauerland and broadcast by DAZN.
      All parties insist medical procedures around the events are stringent but BBBofC general secretary Robert Smith has voiced his fears.
      He said on George Groves Boxing Club podcast: “I have spoken to members of Misfits about having a meeting because I am concerned.
      READ MORE IN BOXING
      “If somebody gets injured it’s boxing, it’s not Misfits boxing, it’s boxing. The first person who’s going to get the phonecall is me.
      “The trouble we’ve got is they may not want to come to the Board because they know they won’t get a licence so there’s half the show gone and I fully understand that.
      “Let’s just see what they can supply us with and let’s see how we can deal with it. If we’re not happy then we won’t do it but if we’re happy we’ll do it.”
      KSI, 29, has now boxed in six bouts, but only one has been professionally sanctioned.
      Most read in Boxing

      The first two were in 2018 exhibitions, a win over over Joe Weller, 27, in London and a draw with Logan Paul, 27, at the Manchester Arena.
      But KSI beat Paul in their rematch a year later which was sanctioned by the California State Athletic Commission.
      KSI’s three wins since then have all been on Misfits and thus not as a pro boxer.
      Meanwhile, Paul’s brother Jake, 26, is a 6-1 pro prizefighter having been licensed to box in Florida, LA, Georgia, Ohio and Arizona.
      His most recent fight was his first against a recognised boxer and ended in defeat, against Tommy Fury, 23, by split-decision in Saudi Arabia.
      The American and KSI still remain linked with a grudge match to finally settle their feud.
      But Jake demanded the bout be under the BBBofC if he is to travel to England, leaving Smith expecting KSI to apply for a licence.
      He said: “We won’t start looking at it until he applies but I presume that’s coming. But if he’s not good enough he won’t get one, it’s as simple as that.
      “Jake Paul has a licence with California, he’s not the best boxer in the world but I don’t think he disgraced himself [against Tommy Fury].

      “More than likely there are people in this country with less ability or the same ability [as Paul] have got a licence so therefore you have to consider that.
      “He is licensed by an authentic governing body. But so far, KSI, I’ve never had any contact with whatsoever.”
