    Despite his lack of experience, many fight fans are tipping YouTuber turned boxer Paul to turn over Fury – the younger brother of WBC heavyweight champion Tyson.
    Matchroom Boxing chief Hearn was initially part of that group but has since changed his mind, insisting the contest is a “50-50” fight.
    The 43-year-old told Boxing UK: “I’m quite looking forward to it.
    “I did think that Jake Paul would win the fight, but I think I’ve changed my mind.

    “It’s a 50/50 though which is a little bit worrying in itself.”
    Hearn initially expected Paul’s mind games to be too much for Fury, who has been trolled by the American for the best part of two years.
    During an appearance on The MMA Hour, Hearn predicted: “Mentally, he’ll break Tommy Fury.
    “I think he’ll mess with Tommy mentally, and I just think by the time they get in the ring, if they do get in the ring, I think Tommy will be defeated before the fight’s even taken place.

    “And I think will win by knockout.”
    Paul and Fury, 23 and 26 respectfully, were due to face off again in a press conference in Saudi last week but the latter skipped the event.
    That irked Paul, who said: “I’m used to his behaviour at this point, he’s unprofessional and he’s a flake.
    “He’s not a serious businessman or a serious fighter and I’m going to prove that.
    “It’s why this fight is called, ‘The Truth’ because the truth is going to come out.
    “He’s going to have to pay for all of the times he’s pulled out. All the business people he screwed over, it’s disrespectful.
