    But he said Paul, the man he has twice signed to face but pulled out both times, is the better of the duo.
    Fury said on The MMA Hour: “I have go to say it, Jake is better than KSI. KSI honestly, I think my mother could knock out KSI in a round.
    “I’m telling you, when I watched him fight those two men – I wasn’t even looking at the two men as they are useless – I was watching him and what he does as a boxer, he can’t fight.
    “There’s some people in this world that are rough and ready, can fight, you know training and whatever. He can’t fight.

    “You look at KSI and I don’t see a fighting man, I see a pretender, plays Fifa on YouTube, whatever he’s famous for, I don’t see anything.”
    KSI, 29, won his professional debut in 2019 after beating Paul’s brother Logan, 27, by split-decision, a year after they drew.
    And he returned in August after three years out and beat rapper Swarmz, 25, and Mexican journeyman Luis Alcaraz Pineda, 23, on the same night.
    Paul, 25, meanwhile is now 6-0 after beating UFC legend Anderson Silva, 47, who was his first opponent with recognised boxing experience.

    Fury, 23, makes his return on November 13 in Dubai against 5-2 American Paul Bamba, 33, on Floyd Mayweather’s undercard.
    And he is open to fighting Paul or KSI in the future – potentially one after the other.
    He said: “Both in the same night, preferably. Both in the same night, honestly.
    “Let me tell you now, this is what I’m going to say and I haven’t really spoke on the Jake Paul situation much in recent months.
    “When you see me get in the ring with one of these guys, I don’t know who it will be first, whether it’s KSI or Jake Paul.
    “You will see the definition of an easy night, you will see why I’ve been saying what I’ve been saying. These guys can’t fight.”

    Tommy Fury says Jake Paul grudge match will sell out 70,000 stadium in UK and reveals why YouTube MUST fight him

    TOMMY FURY believes a grudge match with Jake Paul gives the YouTuber the chance to legitimise himself and sell out a 70,000-seat stadium. The celebrity boxing rivals have TWICE signed to fight but both times Fury was forced to pull out.

    A rib injury in December was soon followed by a US visa issue in August, leaving their business unsettled.
    And Fury confirmed his travel ban in America still stands, meaning Paul would have to come abroad for the bout.
    But his British rival reckons they have the joint pulling power to pack out a stadium in the UK.
    Fury said on The MMA Hour: “I don’t believe that there’s anybody in this country that wouldn’t come to this fight.

    “I think over here that would break all records because Jake is very popular over here.
    “You know, my popularity lies here in the UK. So yeah, I think definitely we could definitely draw 70,000 for that.”
    Paul, 25, improved to 6-0 over the weekend by beating UFC legend Anderson Silva, 47, on points over eight rounds.
    It was the social media star-turned prizefighter’s biggest win to date and against his first opponent with prior pro boxing experience.

    Fury, 23, admitted Paul is a better boxer than YouTube nemesis KSI, 29, but said both have to fight him in order to gain any sort of recognition.
    He said: “If Jake Paul and KSI didn’t have to fight me, they wouldn’t. They have to fight me to prove that they are legitimate boxers.
    “They have to. There is nobody else with my following and my exposure with eight fights in, there’s nobody.
    “If they wanna be regarded as boxers, they have to go through me.
    “This fight between me and Jake does not need selling and I will definitely, definitely take care of business next year.
    “Whether that’s in America or the UK.”

    Paul confirmed he is willing to reschedule with Fury for a third time, but only if they are willing to front the money for it.
    He said: “There’s definitely interest. I think if his team are taking the financial risk and putting the event on, then I’m cool with that.
    “I just don’t want to take the risk anymore because I think he’s going to back out, again, most likely.
    “But it’s an easy fight for me, like way easier than Anderson. The kid’s a novice, he’s never fought anyone good.
    “He’s never even fought an eight-round fight, so he just doesn’t have the experience like I do, which is crazy to say because he’s been doing it his whole life.

    “But people call him a “professional boxer” and they respect him as a professional boxer, so yeah, I’d love to strip that title from him.
    “I wouldn’t even have to actually train for that fight. I would still train, because I’m a professional, but I wouldn’t have to train to fight him.”

    But victory over the 47-year-old UFC great has done little to impress Fury, the father of Paul’s rival Tommy.
    He said on Instagram Live: “This man [Tommy] is fighting here, at least he’s a proper fighter.
    “He trains as a boxer. All he’s fighting, he’s had seven pro fights against proper opposition.
    “Not some hand-picked geriatric that needs a Zimmer frame [walker] to get in the ring.”

    Paul, 25, dropped Silva in the final round of their Arizona dust-up on his way to a decision victory.
    John, however, can’t understand how Paul opted to fight the near-fifty-year-old Silva.
    He said: “If any of my sons was fifty years old and doing that, I’d say ‘Listen, have a day off, give your head a wobble.’
    “‘Alls you’re going to do is make a fool of yourself and entertainment for other people.

    “You’re making the other man that’s useless look good.’”
    Paul and Tommy have twice been scheduled to throw down with one another but have yet to share the ring.
    Injury and illness to Fury scuppered their first scheduled meeting last December, while visa issues laid waste to their second.
    And John has no doubt in his mind his youngest son would teach The Problem Child a lesson.
    He said: “Jake Paul can’t fight. [Tommy] will knock Jake Paul out with one punch.
    “And I’ll say it now on camera: Jake Paul will get knocked out with the first right hand that he throws, and I’ll put money on it.”
    Paul expected critics to be out in force after his latest victory, saying: “They’re gonna find something to say.
    “‘Fight a real boxer!’ B***h, I tried. Hey, if I was walking on water, people would say I can’t swim.

    “So there’s always gonna be haters, there’s always gonna be critics, and that’s just there, that’s everyday, part of life if you’re doing something and being successful.

    “He was limping right from the beginning and hopefully it’s not a bad injury. Let’s see how he is in the next couple of days.” More
