      “I don’t think there’s anything more other than for the ink to dry for both guys to make this happen.”

      He said: “Because I know as soon as I beat Tommy Fury, Jake Paul’s whole career, his whole legacy’s in the bin, and I will be laughing.”
      Fury, 24, handed Paul his first professional loss in February with a split-decision victory in their Saudi showdown.
      And he’s vowed to put an end to the YouTube boxing scene by bouncing KSI from the ranks of the unbeaten.
      He told Sky Sports: “Everybody knows what’s next for me, it’s being teased at the minute.

      “Hopefully, we can get this KSI fight over the line and I’ll knock off another YouTuber.
      “That’s my plan for this year. I want to end YouTube boxing within 12 months.
      “So that’s my plan. So we’ll see. I don’t know. I just take it one fight at a time.
      “All these guys are the same to me.

      “I held back and kept boxing, and we did 12 rounds.
      “He was tired but taking punches and throwing, too.
      “[He] is bad, [he] is bad, but since he’s too heavy – he’s overweight, probably around 220lbs or more.

      “I’m used to, growing up fighting against proper boxers. These guys are a bit of a joke.”

      “Then from what I’ve seen the other day Jake Paul wants it again in February. Listen, I’m happy. I’m happy keep these fights rolling in.”
