  • Tommyinnit urges fans to stop ‘harassing’ stranger who roasted his Minecraft outfit – Dexerto

    Tommyinnit urges fans to stop ‘harassing’ stranger who roasted his Minecraft outfit YouTube: TommyinnitMinecraft star Tom ‘Tommyinnit’ Simons has called on fans to stop harassing a girl who appeared in his latest YouTube video, after sections of his fanbase doxxed her on TikTok. In the span of 12 months, Tommyinnit has gone from a relative unknown to one of the biggest content creators on YouTube. Since joining the Dream SMP with other content creators including Quackity, Tubbo, and GeorgeNotFound, his channel has exploded, as he now sits on over 10 million subscribers. On top of Minecraft, he branched out into IRL content, producing vlogs from water parks, rollercoasters, and even from a tank. And for his 10 million subscriber special, he roamed around English coastal town Bognor Regis, where he spoke to several people about the town. Topic starts at 6:45 In one part, he exchanged a war of words with a girl, who roasted him for wearing a Minecraft suit of armor in public. However, the situation has since gotten out of hand, as some fans allegedly tracked down the girl’s TikTok account and left abusive comments. As a result, Tommy took to his alt Twitter account to urge fans to stop harassing the girl. “Please don’t send out any harassment to people from the recent video,” he said. “Seen some pretty hateful messages towards people which isn’t on, so I’d appreciate you all just not doing that (ever). Thank you.” please don’t send out any harassment to people from the recent video. seen some pretty hateful messages towards people which isn’t on, so i’d appreciate you all just not doing that (ever). thank you. — tommyinnit (@tommyaltinnit) July 25, 2021 This is not the first time so-called ‘Minecraft stans’ have been criticized for their behavior towards people. Back in June, YouTuber Scott Smajor was forced to apologize after he ‘overshadowed racial justice’ by promoting a Minecraft charity event. Content creators like Hasan Piker and Jordan ‘CaptainSparklez’ Maron defended him. And Tommy himself has received backlash from fans over his association with content creators like JSchlat, prompting Charlie ‘MoistCr1TiKaL’ White to call out his followers as “toxic” and “unhealthy”. It remains to be seen if this situation will impact any future IRL content he has in the works.

  • TommyInnit under fire after asking KSI for shoutout in DMX tribute tweet – Dexerto

    TommyInnit under fire after asking KSI for shoutout in DMX tribute tweet Instagram: TommyInnitTommyInnit is under fire for inappropriately asking KSI to give him a shoutout in a comment underneath a tribute tweet mourning the tragic death of iconic rapper DMX. Hip-hop fans around the world, including Olajide William ‘KSI’ Olatunji, are mourning the death of Earl ‘DMX’ Simmons on social media after he suffered a “catastrophic” cardiac arrest. However, their attention turned to Thomas ‘TommyInnit’ Simons after the Minecraft YouTuber commented on KSI’s tribute tweet and ask him for a birthday shoutout, which has been labeled “insensitive.” https://twitter.com/defnoodles/status/1380641394352619521?s=20 “KSI it’s my birthday please can you do an Instagram story shouting me out since you did for Tobi Jizzle so you really should for me as well. Thanks. My Instagram is @Tommyinnitt if you didn’t know also,” the tweet said. He deleted the comment shortly later, before explaining what happened live on stream. “The other day, I was on Instagram, and I saw that KSI does birthday [posts] for all of his friends,” he said. Since he’s a massive KSI fan, he wanted to try and get one dedicated to him, too. The moment he saw KSI posted a tweet, he “immediately replied” without looking at the context. It was only then that he “swiftly realized” it was about DMX passing away and “quickly deleted it.” https://twitter.com/defnoodles/status/1380647715160256512?s=20 Naturally, some fans softened their stance after hearing his side of the story. After all, mistakes happen from time to time, and they believe his explanation checked out. However, others were still not impressed. They felt like he played it down and didn’t even make a proper apology, regardless of whether it was intentional or not. Either way, it seems like TommyInnit’s embarrassing blunder will be talked about for quite some time.

  • TommyInnit shocks fans by announcing he’s homeless after new apartment debacle – Dexerto

    TommyInnit shocks fans by announcing he’s homeless after new apartment debacle YouTube: TommyInnitMinecraft star TommyInnit shocked his fan base of millions after claiming that a debacle with his new apartment complex put him out on the streets. TommyInnit is a hugely popular Minecraft content creator, boasting over 7 million followers on Twitch and over 11 million YouTube subscribers. The young influencer is currently based out of the UK, and was in the middle of moving to a new apartment complex when a major twist of fate prevented his relocation at the last minute. During a January 28 Twitch stream, Tommy called fellow Minecraft streamer Ranboo over Discord, regaling him with a tale that has quickly taken social media by storm. TommyInnit “homeless” amid apartment gas leak According to Tommy, there was a fairly serious gas leak in his new apartment — a place he called an “interim” location to stay at while he browsed for a more permanent living situation elsewhere. With the gas leak happening, the landlord claimed that the area was unsafe for its tenants. Thus, Tommy had to leave his belongings behind and find other accommodations for the night. Luckily, fellow Minecrafter Wilbur Soot opened his home to his comrade… but, according to Tommy, the conditions were less than favorable. Disliking the “freezing” temperature of Wilbur’s home, he left for the library in his local area, where he then called Ranboo. Unfortunately, the young streamer says he isn’t of an age to book a hotel room for the night, and claims that the four hour drive back home isn’t worth it — especially with his things currently locked up in a gaseous apartment. Tommy’s fanbase has gone wild on Twitter amid this news, with viewers wishing him well and most just making a huge meme out of a situation that continues to get more and more over the top. https://twitter.com/MBADrako/status/1487209319414304769 tommyinnit has to be a social experiment WHAT DO YOU MEAN he got kicked out of his new house because of a gas leak so now hes been wandering around homeless for god knows how long and he decided to stream from a library computer. — 💫 miau mrauuu mreoowww (@snifboo) January 28, 2022 guys i can’t believe i miss one tommyinnit stream and suddenly he’s homeless in a public library and he can’t buy a hotel room and also wilbur doesn’t give him blankets?????????????? — jess 😀 (@mellohibench) January 28, 2022 Oh, and apparently he got kicked out of the library for talking with Ranboo over Discord. I am frequently thrown out of public libraries pic.twitter.com/q56pTFovuz — TommyInnit (@tommyinnit) January 28, 2022 For now, it looks like Tommy’s in limbo until the issue gets sorted — but at least he’ll have one hell of a storytime video for his eventual grand return.

  • Tommyinnit slams YouTube’s “lame” TikTok-inspired algorithm – Dexerto

    Tommyinnit slams YouTube’s “lame” TikTok-inspired algorithm Twitch: TommyInnitTommyInnit has grown to become one of the most popular content creators on YouTube, but the current algorithm doesn’t sit right with him, as he claims the platform’s current state sucks during Logan Paul’s Impaulsive podcast. YouTube’s algorithm is the literal heart and brain of the entire platform, and many will be surprised to learn that there’s an actual formula behind making a YouTube video go viral. At only 17-years-old, TommyInnit has amassed over 10 million subscribers on YouTube, and he’s just one of many to crack the code, but he isn’t too fond of the current algorithm that favors the fast-paced TikTok style videos. The young YouTube superstar revealed on Logan Paul’s podcast ‘Impaulsive’ that he’s not a fan of the current system, as it forces creators to stop trying to make art, lowering the quality of content on YouTube across the board. The algorithm’s requirements for making a viral video has changed drastically over the years, but the most recent changes are much more favored towards videos that have high retention rates, meaning the longer a user watches the video, the more likely it’ll be pushed to recommended. On episode 292 of the Impaulsive podcast with TommyInnit, Logan Paul alongside Mike Majlak got on the topic of the YouTube algorithm, with Logan saying “I believe YouTube will once again reach a place of authenticity, I think people will be feening for that because right now content is weird.” The conversation got TommyInnit going off on a rant about the current state of the platform. “The problem with YouTube, and it’s not a problem, I feel like it’s a video game. No matter what the subject, whether you’re talking about some human rights issues, you’ll have dubstep over it to increase retention, or it’s the lightning in the first frame and it’s about the metrics being higher, it’s not about the art and the content being better. (Topic begins at 18:01) “I think especially with the rise of TikTok, it’s let’s have everything fast-paced and subtitles everywhere possible. My stuff at the moment, there’s sort of an element of that so it performs good, but I don’t want it to be this sh*t where it’s like here’s the retention, here’s how fast-paced it is. My thing at the moment is I’m focusing much more over the is it retention? Is the thumbnail good? It’s got to be funny first and a good thing, then start thinking about the YouTube stuff.” The young YouTuber continued: “YouTube at the moment is so weirdly paced, and it’s like a meta, and it’s cool and it’s fine, but when it goes on for a year, everyone stops trying to make art, it’s about making that, and that’s why it’s lame at the moment.” YouTube’s take on short-form media, YouTube Shorts, has recently taken over the platform, with the algorithm heavily prioritizing for that content being pushed to everybody’s recommended feeds, forcing creators to shift to that content to stay relevant. TommyInnit clearly isn’t a fan of the short-form content, as he’s also revealed he’s not a fan of the clip and short channels that almost every content creator is making.

  • TommyInnit reveals Minecraft hater roasted him after being recognized in person – Dexerto

    TommyInnit reveals Minecraft hater roasted him after being recognized in person Twitch: TommyInnitBeing internet famous, like Minecraft streamer and YouTuber TommyInnit, it might be easy to forget that millions of people in the real world would recognize you in the street. For the 16-year-old, he’s just experienced it for the first time – though not how he expected. TommyInnit has been a streamer and content creator for a number of years, focusing on a variety of games before moving almost exclusively to Minecraft. In 2020, he became one of the most-watched Twitch streamers, and his YouTube channel boomed. Now at almost 7 million subscribers, up from less than a million in August 2020, Tommy has blown up at a rapid pace. Such a fast boom in followers left him unprepared for what would inevitably happen – being recognized in public. Given the lockdowns in the UK, this was slightly less likely for the time being, but on February 27, TommyInnit revealed he’d be recognized in real life for the first time – but not by a fan. TommyInnit roasted by a hater Instead of supporting fan, Tommy explained that it was a hater instead – joking they must have been a Sidemen viewer. “Just got recognised by a hater who looked me dead in the eyes and said ‘your channel is ass’”, Tommy said on Twitter. Tommy, as well as other Minecraft streamers, have been locked in a feud with the Sidemen – the UK YouTube collective that includes the likes of KSI and Miniminter. just got recognised by a hater who looked me dead in the eyes and said “”your channel is ass”” — TommyInnit (@tommyinnit) February 27, 2021 A Sidemen fan? Minecraft YouTuber Tubbo responded, and Tommy suggested it must have been a “loyal Sidemen viewer” – and blaming KSI. they were clearly a loyal sidemen viewer and would have tried to beat the shit out of me. @KSI this is your fault — TommyInnit (@tommyinnit) February 27, 2021 This did draw a reply from KSI too – smiling happily. The Sidemen vs Minecraft YouTubers beef is all just for fun, and made up for the purposes of content. Although, many Sidemen fans aren’t actually that happy about it. Their fans have been asking the group to stop collaborating with the Minecraft stars, accusing them of just trying to attract more followers from that fanbase. Minecraft stars like TommyInnit and Tubbo are certainly the popular new creators right now. The Sidemen are still popular – but aren’t the new and fresh thing they once were.

  • TommyInnit reveals how YouTube fame became “overwhelming” amid Minecraft boom – Dexerto

    TommyInnit reveals how YouTube fame became “overwhelming” amid Minecraft boom YouTube: IMPAULSIVETommyInnit is one of the biggest faces of the Minecraft community — but fame comes with its caveats, and Tommy wasn’t exactly prepared for the recognition that his status as a major Twitch star would bring him. The Minecraft community boasts a fair few influencers with huge fanbases, Dream, DanDTM, and Karl Jacobs among them, as well as English streamer TommyInnit. The UK-based content creator gained a foothold in the Minecraft player base in 2020, becoming one of Twitch’s fastest-growing broadcasters and garnering 3 million YouTube subscribers at the end of the year. Now, Tommy boasts over 6.5 million Twitch followers and over 10 million YouTube subs, and it seems that his status as a top-tier influencer only continues to grow… but he wasn’t prepared for the “overwhelming” amount of recognition the role would require. oh my god!! seriously thank you all so much — TommyInnit (@tommyinnit) December 3, 2020 During a September 14 episode of Logan Paul’s IMPAULSIVE podcast, Tommyinnit revealed that, at first, being recognized in public by legions of fans was a bit too much for him. “I found the start of this year pretty hard with anxiety and stuff, about going out in public,” he began. “The whole getting recognized s**t, that was really overwhelming. I think a lot of it — the sort of feeling of alienation with YouTube, and people not seeing you for just, like a guy that makes videos — and it’s totally easy to solve, and I feel like I’m a lot happier with it and better with it now, but that was a struggle at the start of this year.” “I was thinking about dropping out of college,” he added. “I was really anxious about it. I didn’t like the idea of going out in public. It was this choice between privacy and identity. … I went out with glasses and a disguise, because I wanted to see if I was still getting recognized.” It makes sense that Tommy would find all this to be a bit over the top; the influencer reminded listeners that he’d been “mobbed at a train station by fans” in the past, which was something that he didn’t expect, as he’d risen to prominence fairly quickly. (Topic begins at 32:12) For this Minecraft creator, fame happened quite literally overnight — but he’s managed to find the tenuous balance between stardom and normalcy in spite of his status as an internet superstar.

  • TommyInnit ‘ratios’ Bruno Mars in unexpected Twitter beef over viral lip-sync video – Dexerto

    TommyInnit ‘ratios’ Bruno Mars in unexpected Twitter beef over viral lip-sync video YouTube: TommyOutit / Instagram: brunomarsPopular Minecraft streamer TommyInnit has ‘ratioed’ singer Bruno Mars in (largely one-sided) joke Twitter beef, thanks to an old video of Tommy lip-syncing to ‘That’s What I Like’ that fans keep sharing. At just 16-years-old, TommyInnit has seen insane success on both Twitch and YouTube over the past year, thanks to his hilarious Minecraft content. As a member of the Dream SMP, he joins the ranks of other hugely popular streamers, who regularly see insane numbers on social media. If anyone from this group wants to ‘ratio’ someone – in other words get more likes on a reply to a Tweet than the original tweet itself – they have hundreds and thousands of fans ready to help them. At the end of February, creators like MrBeast, Dream, and more set out to ratio food chain Wendy’s on Twitter after they appeared to shade streamer GeorgeNotFound, and Wendy’s was beaten by the streaming community by a huge margin. The latest unexpected subject of bizarre Twitter beef is none other than singer Bruno Mars – and for Tommy at least, this one’s personal. Back in November 2020, Tommy uploaded a video titled “Explaining this video” to YouTube, in which he discussed the story behind a hilarious clip of him lip-syncing to Bruno Mars’s hit song “That’s What I Like” while flipping between cameras. He explained that he originally uploaded the video in 2019, and after he rose to popularity fans rediscovered the video, and naturally shared it everywhere. His friends and fans still use it to poke fun at the young streamer, and in a hilarious twist, Tommy appears to now be shifting the blame to Bruno Mars himself. On March 3, the streamer replied to one of Bruno’s tweets about releasing new music with, “I don’t love you very much Bruno Mars. You’ve made my life quite a lot harder.” Bruno actually ended up liking the tweet, with Tommy screenshotting the notification and writing, “this is incredibly insulting.” @BrunoMars This is incredibly insulting pic.twitter.com/A6NNkgqg3w — TommyInnit (@tommyinnit) March 3, 2021 His vendetta against the star continued when he put, “don’t care,” in response to another one of Bruno’s tweets. At the time of writing, Bruno’s tweet has 23,000 likes, with Tommy’s at just over 44,000 likes, with fans thoroughly entertained by the one-sided Twitter beef. It looks like TommyInnit won’t be able to escape that lip-sync video of him any time soon, and fans have been left wondering what Bruno’s reaction to the unexpected ratio is.

  • Tommyinnit reveals he used to stream snipe Shroud before he was famous – Dexerto

    Tommyinnit reveals he used to stream snipe Shroud before he was famous YouTube: Tommyoutit / Twitch: shroudTommyinnit might be the most popular streamer on Twitch right now, averaging over 200,000 concurrent viewers for his sporadic Minecraft streams, but it turns out he used to be a massive shroud fanboy. In fact, he was one of shroud’s infamous stream snipers. Stream sniping is the practice of using a streamer’s broadcast to gain information about the game they are playing – either to get an unfair advantage, or simply to join their game and troll them. During the height of PUBG’s popularity in 2017, shroud was the biggest streamer on Twitch, and had an army of loyal stream snipers who would try endlessly to get into his matches. Shroud’s stream snipers weren’t like others though – instead of trying to kill him, they would sing him songs, give him weapons and armor, or try to save his life when under attack. Tommyinnit admits shroud stream sniping Although it’s against the rules of most games and of Twitch itself, Tommyinnit has admitted that when he was 14, back in 2017, he loved both PUBG and shroud, and would spend hours up late trying to get into his games. Read More: CodeMiko banned from Twitch for third time – And he was successful too – often matching up with him, and trying to save his life from actual enemies attacking him. Shroud eventually became familiar with Tommy’s name, and would say hello to him. In a video on his second channel, Tommyoutit, came clean about all of his stream sniping antics. In one session, shroud even talked to Tommy about playing Minecraft, the game that he’s so well-known for now. But, it turns out that Tommyinnit made this video because it wasn’t just years ago in PUBG that he was stream sniping shroud. When he recently saw shroud on a Minecraft server with proximity chat, he had to try it again for old times sake. Unfortunately, shroud didn’t seem to be enjoying himself at all this time around, and soon after left the server – though not before killing Tommyinnit’s character, twice. Although stream sniping is technically against the rules on Twitch, we’re sure the platform will let this one slide, as it was all in good fun. The real question is whether shroud has made the connection that one of his old stream snipers is now one of the biggest names on Twitch alongside him.

  • TommyInnit is hanging out with Logan Paul and the internet doesn’t know how to feel – Dexerto

    TommyInnit is hanging out with Logan Paul and the internet doesn’t know how to feel Instagram: tommyinnitt / YouTube: IMPAULSIVETwitter is in an uproar after uber-popular Minecraft creator TommyInnit met up with YouTube star Logan Paul, causing mayhem, confusion, and excitement across social media. TommyInnit is one of the most popular Minecraft content creators on the internet right now. Boasting over 10 million YouTube subscribers and 6.5 million Twitch followers, it’s safe to say that Tommy is arguably one of the faces of the collective Minecraft fanbase, alongside his contemporaries Dream and DanDTM, among others. The Minecraft community boasts quite a few die-hard fans who follow their favorite creators’ every move… so it comes as little surprise that the internet sort of imploded when TommyInnit began to appear in photos with another huge influencer. That influencer is none other than Logan Paul, who has shifted from being the internet’s most-hated YouTuber to a professional boxer with his own NFT empire. Amid his redemption arc (of sorts), Paul even kicked off his own podcast, ‘IMPAULSIVE,’ and it looks like Tommy will be featuring in an episode of the series. Alongside appearing in group photos with Paul, a clip from the upcoming IMPAULSIVE interview made its way online, thanks to Logan — and it’s leaving the internet in hysterics. Legions of the Minecraft fan base have weighed in with their take on Tommy meeting up with Paul and co., and seem to be equal parts excited, agitated, and downright confused. “I’m seriously in distress,” one commenter said of the unexpected meetup. “Why are they with Logan Paul?” https://twitter.com/wiIbursoot/status/1437445316693876740?s=20 “Sorry, I can’t get over how awkward this photo is,” another chimed in. “Logan Paul is just standing there like his mum forced him to stand near the weird cousins for a photo for her Facebook.” sorry I can’t get over how awkward this photo is Logan Paul is just standing there like his mum forced him to stand near the weird cousins for a photo for her Facebook pic.twitter.com/voSwxuvRWL — mun 🎗️ (@dozingallium) September 13, 2021 Still others noticed that TommyInnit has also hung out with KSI — Logan Paul’s former rival — making for yet another massive collaboration with one of the platform’s mainstream stars.

  • TommyInnit keeps getting ignored by Charli D’Amelio – Dexerto

    TommyInnit keeps getting ignored by Charli D’Amelio Instagram: charlidamelio / tommyinnittMinecraft YouTuber TommyInnit has been trying his best to contact popular TikToker Charli D’Amelio via a range of platforms, but so far his efforts haven’t managed to elicit a response from the star. Over the past year, 17-year-old TommyInnit has become one of the most popular Minecraft creators on both YouTube and Twitch. His participation in the Dream SMP saw his popularity shoot up, and since then he has had a huge fanbase of dedicated viewers. He’s also active on Twitter, constantly interacting with fellow streamers like Corpse Husband and Valkyrae. But it’s not just people he knows, as the streamer has also been known to interact with people he’s yet to be acquainted with. Previously he managed to start some (one-sided) Twitter beef with singer Bruno Mars, after fans dug up a video of him lip-syncing to the song ‘That’s What I Like’ and shared it across social media. For the past few months, Tommy has been making it his mission to get 17-year-old TikTok star Charli D’Amelio to notice him, starting by making several TikTok Duets with her. Click here if TikTok doesn’t load After a few attempts with no response, he ultimately decided to bring it up with her via Twitter. “charlie i keep dueting you and you keep ignoring me,” he wrote, “please reply charlie’dmelloh.” @charlidamelio charlie i keep dueting you and you keep ignoring me. please reply charlie’dmelloh — TommyInnit (@tommyinnit) May 14, 2021 Upon realizing she still had yet to respond on a Twitch stream, Tommy then decided to chase up his previous message with a reply to one of her tweets. Although he hasn’t got the response he wanted yet, it seems like Tommy is willing to play the long game. While it might seem like an unlikely combination, the streamer world and the TikTok world have previously collided when Addison Rae played Among Us with Corpse Husband, Dream, Pokimane and more.

  • TommyInnit is going to “war” to overtake Gordon Ramsay on TikTok – Dexerto

    TommyInnit is going to “war” to overtake Gordon Ramsay on TikTok Twitter: TommyInnit/Instagram: GordonRamsayMinecraft star TommyInnit is going to “war” with Gordon Ramsay, and he’s got a pretty interesting plan to surpass the British chef on TikTok. As TikTok has gotten increasingly popular over the last few years, it has become the next frontier for content creators to conquer. The video-sharing platform has created a whole host of new internet stars, but you can still find your favorite creators over there too. Following immense success across YouTube and Twitch, TommyInnit has also built up a massive following on TikTok with over 11 million followers. However, he lags significantly behind British chef Gordon Ramsay who has more than three times the amount of followers. Undeterred by the massive gap, the Minecraft star is mobilizing his fans as he is going to “war” to try and catch up to the 55-year-old before long. The YouTuber is digging deep into the age-old bag of internet tricks, as he’s making posters for people to put up wherever, all with one simple message: Follow TommyInnit on TikTok. He’s already started putting them up around his hometown, and is promising to drop TikTok duets with the most creative placements. “We’ve gotta pass Gordon! It’s war,” he said in his rallying cry video. His other reason for the war is slightly tongue in cheek, as his new TikTok bio reads: “Guys we gotta pass Gordon, he’s making England look bad.” On top of that, if TikTok isn’t really your thing, he’s also dropping retweets on his TommyInit alternate Twitter account. Though, he doesn’t want people to get too crazy and get arrested by throwing them up. The YouTuber’s fans have already come up with a few creative ideas, one included sticking a poster to their teacher’s whiteboard so everybody in their school gets to see it. here’s the high quality image of the poster. i’ll retweet the funniest ones you lot put up LMAO pic.twitter.com/E62mJgMmMB — tommyinnit (@tommyaltinnit) March 14, 2022 However, with the gap between himself and Gordon being so big – and the chef’s growth on TikTok showing no signs of slowing down – Tommy might be fighting a losing battle. Either way though, it should produce some great content.

  • TommyInnit hits major Twitch milestone with over 650k viewers for Dream SMP finale – Dexerto

    TommyInnit hits major Twitch milestone with over 650k viewers for Dream SMP finale TommyInnit TwitchAn epic conclusion for TommyInnit main quest in the Dream SMP Minecraft server lit up Twitch like few streams have before, earning the UK personality a spot in the top broadcasts of all time. It was a long time coming for Tommy, starting out the stream reminiscing about all of the Minecraft shenanigans he was a part of since he joined YouTuber Dream’s custom server in July 2020. He titled his stream ‘The Dream SMP Finale’ and that was more than enough to generate an insane amount of hype that quickly saw his sub-two hour broadcast garner hundreds of thousands of viewers. The Disc Saga came to a close with a shocking revelation, but not before Tommy put his name in the annals of Twitch lore. Everyone must have taken notice, since his viewer count easily eclipsed 100,000 in no time at all. From there the digital counter just kept climbing, eventually peaking at around 650,000 concurrent viewers for the content creator. That gives the YouTuber the third highest concurrent viewer stream on Twitch, only trailing Grefg who peaked at 660,000 viewers in early December 2020 during the Fortnite Galactus event, just to demolish that mark a month later on January 11 by reaching 2.5 million viewers. Even if we include company channels that usually host events, TommyInnit’s January 20 stream still places 6th on the all-time highest peak viewers list on Twitch ahead of Ninja (8th), Ibai (10th), shroud (12th), and more, according to TwitchTracker. The Minecraft community showed up for Tommy on his big day as well as people who were tuning in to see the main man of the server, Dream, come alive (and then die, just to be imprisoned). For those who were in the ‘know,’ Tommy’s latest stream was the culmination of months on end journeying across the SMP server and its cast of colorful characters, with many wanting to tune in to see it live. And Tommy didn’t discount the possibility of returning to the server soon. So who knows, maybe this won’t be the last time that TommyInnit puts up wild numbers on Twitch for his Minecraft antics.

  • TommyInnit impresses Uber driver with hilarious song about Pokimane – Dexerto

    TommyInnit impresses Uber driver with hilarious song about Pokimane YouTube: TommyInnit, PokimaneMinecraft star TommyInnit performed a humorous song he made about meeting Pokimane at TwitchCon — and his Uber driver’s response to the ditty was nothing short of perfect. TommyInnit is one of the Minecraft community’s most popular content creators. Boasting over 11 million YouTube subscribers and 7 million Twitch followers, Tommy is often paired with the likes of Dream, Ranboo, and other Minecraft stars. As such, it came as little surprise that Tommy made his way to TwitchCon EU in Amsterdam to commune with his fellow creators, including one of Twitch’s most popular broadcasters, Imane ‘Pokimane’ Anys. After finally meeting TikTok queen Charli D’Amelio, it makes sense that Tommy was equally excited to see the most popular woman on Twitch — so, of course, he created an entire song about it. “I’m going to meet Pokimane / And I intend to smell her / This is some found footage / We all died in the plane crash / There were no survivors,” Tommy sang in a TwitchCon vlog. “Why weren’t there any survivors? / Because we all died in the plane crash.” His Uber driver, however, had a quip that made the entire situation even more awkwardly hilarious than it already was. After TommyInnit finished his little ditty about Pokimane, the driver said: “That’s nice, man.” After letting out a humiliated, “thank you,” Tommy couldn’t help but put his head in his hands as though totally embarrassed by the driver’s response. While this certainly made for a lighthearted moment in Tommy’s TwitchCon experience, his subsequent meet and greet with fans ended up causing some controversy after viewers claimed they were “harassed” by YouTuber JiDion, who showed up to the event despite being permanently banned on Twitch. JiDion has yet to release his own video about the subject, but says he’ll publish it “soon.” For now, fans have this hilarious moment from Tommy’s TwitchCon experience to watch until that next chapter unfolds.

  • TommyInnit flips off Charli D’Amelio in hilarious dance battle footage – Dexerto

    TommyInnit flips off Charli D’Amelio in hilarious dance battle footage Instagram: tommyinnit / YouTube: TommyInnitMinecraft star TommyInnit finally met Charli D’Amelio — but their impromptu meeting was interrupted by a hilarious dance-off. TommyInnit is one of the biggest rising stars on the internet, but it took some major legwork for him to get recognition from Charli D’Amelio. Charli was, until very recently, TikTok’s most-followed creator. Boasting over 144 million followers on the app, she’s still a household name with ambitions of being a movie star. For over a year, Tommy had been trying to get her attention as part of an inside joke with his fans. After months of duetting her on TikTok and tagging her on Twitter, she finally graced him with a follow back in November 2021. The two finally met in person in June 2022, and shared a selfie together on social media that effectively broke the internet. Now, weeks later, Tommy has shared some behind the scenes footage of his meeting with the TikTok star — and it was an especially chaotic affair with a hilarious twist. After managing to discover Charli’s number in his phone from an old FaceTime call, Tommy rang her up and asked to hang out during his trip to America last month. He was then given an invite to the release party for Dixie D’Amelio’s new album, which he attended alongside TikToker Larray. Tommy managed to get backstage to snap a selfie with Charli before heading out to the dance floor, where he engaged in a dance battle with Charli’s father, Marc D’Amelio, against Charli and her friend. The ensuing dance-off was one for the books (apparently, Marc can breakdance), with Tommy ending his performance by flipping Charli the bird and “swearing at her.” (Topic begins at 14:18) It was an epic conclusion to Tommy and Charli’s saga and one that fans won’t soon forget… But we’re sure Charli is plotting her revenge as she gears up for her role in an upcoming horror movie anthology.

  • Tommyinnit freaks out after leaking his passport on stream – Dexerto

    Tommyinnit freaks out after leaking his passport on stream TommyInnit (Twitch)Tommyinnit, one of the most popular Minecraft content creators online, went into a panic after accidentally leaking his passport on stream. Seventeen-year-old Thomas ‘tommyinnit‘ Simons is one of the many Minecraft creators on the Dream SMP. And like anyone associated with the SMP, he has garnered an immense following over the last couple of years. With 40k average viewers on Twitch and 11.5 million YouTube subscribers, Tommy is one of the largest creators online. This comes with its perks, but also means nothing he does online will go unnoticed. That’s why, during a live stream on the Dream SMP server, Tommy began to freak out after leaking his passport. He possibly leaked his private information to more than 70k viewers. Tommyinnit leaks passport during Twitch stream While playing with Ph1lza and Technoblade, Tommy attempted to save a picture of his fellow SMP member Tubbo. However, in the process of saving the image, a thumbnail of his passport appeared on the screen. He immediately closed the window and groaned at his mistake. “Now, I’m 60% sure I just leaked my passport. I’m sure it’s fine,” he said while reviewing the vod, “Please tell me it was out of frame.” He and Ph1lza reviewed the clip and agreed that the thumbnail was too small to see any details. However, Tommy’s chat and friends urged him to end stream and delete the archived footage. “Yes! Get f**ked, idiots!” Tommy exclaimed as he realized his viewers couldn’t steal his personal information. Shortly after, Tommy’s dad called him to check in on the situation. “I don’t want to brag, but I just did the funniest passport leak ever,” Tommy stated. His father agreed that it was fine and advised that anyone with Tommy’s passport should destroy it immediately. Tommy went on to brag about how “clutch” his window closing abilities are while ignoring the possible ramifications of a leaked passport. The award-winning Minecraft streamer went on to perform more shenanigans with his friends on the SMP.

    TommyInnit finally reveals girlfriend on YouTube YouTube: tommyinnitMinecraft star TommyInnit shocked fans after revealing his girlfriend in a YouTube video that’s going viral. TommyInnit is one of the most popular Minecraft content creators on the internet. Boasting over 13 million YouTube subscribers and 7 million Twitch followers, he’s also a central figure in Dream’s viral survival multiplayer server. As a famous online figure, it makes sense that fans are curious about Tommy’s personal life — especially who he’s dating. Although Tommy hadn’t exactly been open about his romantic prospects in the past, he did tease that he was in a relationship during an IRL stream earlier this year. Eagle-eyed fans were immediately on the alert after Tommy claimed he had a girlfriend in this broadcast… and it wasn’t long until he finally revealed her to the world. On Sunday, May 7, Tommy uploaded a YouTube video where he introduced his girlfriend to his millions of fans. He also posted a photo of the two to Twitter and Instagram. For now, not much is known about his partner, other than her name is Molly, or ‘Em’ for short. Based on a humorous conversation near the end of his YouTube video, it seems like Em won’t be appearing in Tommy’s content in the future and will remain anonymous. Fans were left shocked and delighted after Tommy opened up about his relationship, with many congratulating the Minecraft superstar and noting how well their dynamic seems to work — especially given Tommy’s chaotic nature. Minecraft community reacts to TommyInnit girlfriend reveal “They literally balance each other out so well,” one user wrote. “Tommy’s so chaotic and she just sits there all calm.” Even other Minecraft creators chimed in on the big reveal, with Dream asking Tommy to go on a double date with him. Georgenotfound posted an excited GIF in response to the news, while Tubbo had a more humorous jab at the situation: “Faceapp has come a long way.” This is just the latest big relationship news to come from a major YouTuber after PewDiePie and Marzia teased the gender of their baby last week.

He is best known for his Minecraft-related content and is one of the most successful young streamers going around at the moment.

Now, his seven Youtube channels have a total of 24.5 million subscribers collectively and over 2 billion views. For fans who follow Tommyinnit on social media, you’d know that he has been trying to strike up a friendship with Charli D’Amelio for quite a while now. Tommy began dueting Charlie’s Tiktok’s constantly last year as a way to get her to notice him and hopefully follow him back on Twitter. After months of doing this and getting no response, it became a giant running joke between Tommyinnit and his fans. His fanbase would ask for updates and they would send him memes about the two hanging out. However, after getting no response for so long, D’Amelio eventually noticed what was going on. In November 2021, Tommyinnit posted a photo on Twitter, revealing that she had finally followed him back. He even captioned the tweet as being “the most important moment of my life.” This is the most important moment of my life pic.twitter.com/bc9yQyzh8h — TommyInnit (@tommyinnit) November 27, 2021 From there, the friendship and drama continued to unfold. Tommy revealed that this past May, he met her on Facetime via a mutual friend they had, getting her phone number in the process. Tommy told his fans that he then asked her if she would be attending VidCon. When he revealed that she said yes, fans immediately began anticipating the meet-up between the two. Now with VidCon finally here, the two have finally come together. Tommy’s fans have been waiting to see and hear if he would finally meet up with Charli D’Amelio. Rather than leaving his fans in suspense, Tommy confirmed the two had met up and posted an image of the two together on Twitter last night. In the tweet, he joked that she keeps trying to marry him. Fans quickly began commenting on the tweet, which now has over 150,000 likes. Many are extremely happy for him, especially those who have been following him closely. Other’s seem to think he’s not even telling the truth and simply don’t believe it. Fans are now waiting for the Vlog collab the two promised they would do. And while nothing else has been confirmed, many are hoping the two will collaborate more in the future and create some form of content together.

  • TommyInnit crashes lie detector question regarding Dream Minecraft cheating scandal – Dexerto

    TommyInnit crashes lie detector question regarding Dream Minecraft cheating scandal YouTube: TommyInnit / Anthony PadillaPopular YouTuber TommyInnit bombed his lie detector test when asked about Dream’s infamous Minecraft speedrun cheating scandal. The 17-year-old YouTuber took a lie detector test with friends for a September 27 video and was asked a flurry of questions, including whether he believed Dream had intentionally lied about cheating in Minecraft. However, TommyInnit crashed the test when giving his answers about the masked star. The British entertainer was also forced to share his true feelings about Dream’s musical career – and his responses were interesting, to say the least! TommyInnit’s response to Dream Minecraft drama question In October 2020, Dream was accused of cheating by the Minecraft speedrunning community. While he vigorously refuted the claims for over a year, the masked star finally admitted to accidentally cheating in May 2021. In his apology letter, the 22-year-old explained he had left mods on by mistake. Fellow SMP player and close friend TommyInnit was put in the hot seat about the scandal on September 27 when he was asked whether Dream had “intentionally” cheated in his controversial speedrun. The YouTuber flunked the test as being untruthful however when he answered with “no.” Responding to the results, he explained “What the f**k. No, no, no. Dream, I believed when you explained it to me. He didn’t cheat!” His answer caused the room of his friends to erupt in laughter as he continued to deny that he had lied during the test. (Topic starts at 05:38) The YouTuber was also pressed on whether he actually enjoyed Dream’s venture into music. After failing the test again, he jokingly yelled, “But he made a song about a car! He said one song telling me to take off my f**king clothes!” While the test was full of tense and uncomfortable questions, the whole video was meant in jest. Thankfully for TommyInnit, lie detectors have also been ruled as being unreliable by most experts, giving him an out on his Dream responses.

  • TommyInnit explains why YouTubers “trying to be MrBeast” is bad – Dexerto

    TommyInnit explains why YouTubers “trying to be MrBeast” is bad YouTube: MrBeast/ Colin and SamirPopular Minecraft streamer TommyInnit has shared his worries over the number of creators he claimed are trying to copy hugely successful YouTuber Jimmy ‘MrBeast’ Donaldson. MrBeast is one of YouTube’s most famous faces. With his influence continuing to grow at a rapid rate, the star is well on the way to smashing his 100 million subscriber target. So, it’s no surprise that a plethora of content creators have looked to the 24-year-old for inspiration in the hope of striking YouTube gold. However, according to his fellow YouTube star TommyInnit, this could spell a problem for “creativity” on the Google-owned platform. TommyInnit worries more YouTubers are copying MrBeast In an interview with YouTubers Colin and Samir, Tommy was asked about his thoughts regarding YouTube as an art form and the influence that MrBeast has had on the streaming site. “I think what MrBeast does is amazing,” Tommy claimed. “I think his videos are great […] I think the problem has been so many individual YouTubers, including myself, have seen that MrBeast gets the most views.” As a result, Tommy claimed, “everyone has tried to be more like MrBeast” as creators jump on trends that he has helped spark. (Topic starts at 46:08 in the video) Tommy added that he is “so exhausted” with seeing YouTubers following MrBeast’s formula. Although, he stated that it must also be frustrating for MrBeast as it has forced him to “keep progressing” as “everyone else has sort of caught up with him.” He stressed that this wasn’t to criticize MrBeast in any way, but more to urge YouTubers to “amplify” what makes them successful rather than rely on another creator’s formula as it “isn’t good for creativity.” Tommy admitted that he too has faced challenges to hit success on YouTube. Yet, with 11.7 million subscribers on the platform as of writing, his hard work has obviously paid off in the end.

  • TommyInnit completely bamboozled by WillNE’s ridiculous deepfake YouTube collab – Dexerto

    TommyInnit completely bamboozled by WillNE’s ridiculous deepfake YouTube collab YouTube: WillNEPopular UK YouTuber Will ‘WillNE’ Lenney decided to pre-record all his collabs for a week with automated voice lines and weird deepfakes — and completely bamboozled TommyInnit. Will has over 4m subscribers on YouTube, and can often be found in videos alongside his ‘Eboys’ crew with the likes of ImAllexx and Memeulous. Throughout 2021 though, with Tommy’s insane rise to content stardom, he has featured in collabs with the Eboys, the Sidemen and other top YouTubers across the world. While Tommy is often the one leaving his peers baffled by his quick wit and quirky traits, Will decided to spin the whole dynamic on its head. As Will reveals at the start of the video, he’s pre-recorded loads of sound bites and video clips to hopefully help him navigate the collaboration. While actually filming, Will trolled his friends by deepfaking their face onto his and leaving weird messages — and Tommy was baffled. Throughout the video, you can see Tommy look over, obviously a bit perplexed and noticing something weird was happening, but it wasn’t quite clicking — until a Vikkstar video played out and Tommy completely lost concentration. Then, the video started to unravel, and when Tommy left the room he gave a very weird look to his computer. Finally, Tommy returned and Will came clean about what was going on.”I’ll be honest Tommy, it wasn’t me playing. I’ve not been here the whole time. I’m deepfaking all my collabs for a week and seeing if the other person realizes. You realized and then just still kept going!” Tommy, through his laughter, couldn’t find the right way to explain what was going through his head throughout the video, but you can definitely see him trying to figure out what was happening at certain points. While Tommy is usually the one making a mockery of other YouTubers and leaving them lost for words, it’s fair to say Will got the better of him this time.

  • TommyInnit finally gets Charli D’Amelio Twitter follow after months of waiting – Dexerto

    TommyInnit finally gets Charli D’Amelio Twitter follow after months of waiting Instagram: charlidamelio / tommyinnitMinecraft star TommyInnit has finally been followed by TikTok sensation Charli D’Amelio on Twitter, after months of trying to strike up an online friendship. 17-year-old TommyInnit is one of the most popular Minecraft content creators out there, well-known for his participation in the wildly popular Dream SMP along with several other renowned creators on YouTube. Throughout 2021, Tommy has been trying his very best to interact with TikTok’s most-followed creator Charli D’Amelio online, and has made several attempts to befriend the creator across a range of platforms. After dueting her several times on TikTok, in July he wrote on Twitter: “Charli I keep dueting you and you keep ignoring me. Please reply charlie’dmelloh.” @charlidamelio charlie i keep dueting you and you keep ignoring me. please reply charlie’dmelloh — TommyInnit (@tommyinnit) May 14, 2021 However, much to his dismay, he was ultimately ignored, which only seemed to entertain fans more. Yet after all those months of waiting, on November 27, Tommy revealed that he had finally gained a follow from the popular TikTok star. Alongside a screenshot of the notification that she’d followed him, he wrote: “This is the most important moment of my life.” This is the most important moment of my life pic.twitter.com/bc9yQyzh8h — TommyInnit (@tommyinnit) November 27, 2021 Fans were happy to see that Tommy’s efforts finally paid off in some way, and his fellow content creators were quick to share their own response, with Dream and Sapnap jokingly tagging Charli and saying, “wtf follow me.” After recently telling fans he dropped out of college, he also wrote: “This is the full-time YouTuber life. I’m young. Happy. Living my life. It’s just the TommyInnit charm.” This is the full time youtuebr life phil. im young. happy. Living my life. Its just the tommyinnit charm — TommyInnit (@tommyinnit) November 27, 2021 Although the pair now follow each other, it’s not clear whether they’ll go on to actually collaborate at any point in the future. But if they were to team up on content, it might not be such a surprising combination. Tommy was actually the one to reveal that TikTok star Addison Rae was in the Dream SMP Discord sever back in January, so it wouldn’t be the first time the two worlds have combined.

  • TommyInnit claims he had “no confidence” before joining Dream SMP – Dexerto

    TommyInnit claims he had “no confidence” before joining Dream SMP YouTube: TommyInnitPopular Twitch streamer TommyInnit dedicated a heartfelt YouTube video to Dream SMP, saying that before the Minecraft SMP he was self-conscious about his appearance. With 11.8 million subscribers on YouTube and 7.3 million followers on Twitch, TommyInnit has become one of the most popular Minecraft streamers in the community. It all began after he joined Dream’s beloved Minecraft server Dream SMP in July 2020 when he was just 16-years-old and the rest is history. There have been some high and low points for the server. However, it will always hold a place in Tommy’s heart, especially as it gave him the oppurtunity to meet his “hero” Technoblade. TommyInnit claims Dream SMP helped him with confidence On August 5, Tommy posted a YouTube video called ‘How Dream SMP Changed My Life.’ After claiming how Dream was reluctant to let him on to his popular Minecraft server at first, Tommy shared how it helped him make it to the top. However, Dream SMP also had a significant effect on Tommy’s self-assurance. The YouTuber said: “I had no confidence at the beginning of the SMP. I didn’t like how I looked or how I sounded. But, this SMP, you, all taught me it was okay to just be me. That that’s enough. The Dream SMP was the perfect storm of everything I could ever want and it made me happier than I could ever want.” (Topic begins at 16:23 in the video) Tommy made several call outs to all the incredible opportunities being part of the SMP had given him. However, one of the most exciting was meeting the late iconic YouTuber Technoblade. “Technoblade is the coolest f**king person I’ve ever known,” Tommy shared in a touching tribute. “I remember the morning he added me on Discord, I was walking to school in the freezing cold […] but it didn’t matter because I was meeting Technoblade, the king of the Minecraft community.” Dream SMP’s heyday may be over for now. However, it nonetheless helped the careers of many streamers to skyrocket and Tommy is clearly ever so grateful.

    Tommyinnit and ThatVeganTeacher TikTok drama explained TikTok: tommyinnit / thatveganteacherIn a bizarre turn of events, fans of Minecraft streamer Tommyinnit have been baffled after prominent vegan activist on TikTok, ThatVeganTeacher, duetted his video offering to help him find a “nice vegan girl.” Tommyinnit has been one of a few streaming stars who made it big in 2020, taking their originally small channels to new heights and amassing a huge number of fans that remain some of the most loyal on the internet. 16-year-old Tommy has gone on to secure over four million subscribers on YouTube and 2.5 million followers on Twitch, with his content largely centering on Minecraft collabs with other huge creators such as Dream. The young star frequently makes jokes about finding girls, and that’s exactly did in a TikTok video on December 15, which shows him saying “I’m at college and I’m surrounded by women,” with a nervous glance around. Fans loved the short video that secured almost 2 million likes, but the last person people expected to duet it was ThatVeganTeacher. She is an advocate for animal rights on TikTok, and her divisive videos frequently become the subject of mass trolling. In her unprompted response to the 16-year-old, she said, “don’t be scared, Tommy. Just follow That Meat Teacher, Miss Tofu. She’ll help you find a nice vegan girl who will teach you what to do.” https://www.tiktok.com/@thatveganteacher/video/6908389027557281029?lang=en&sender_device=pc&sender_web_id=6891581267042141701&is_from_webapp=v2 It’s safe to say fans were freaking out at the totally random encounter and began duetting the video trolling her, with her video at over 3300 duets at the time of writing. https://twitter.com/lupincore/status/1341063108903772162 https://twitter.com/phuongt_/status/1340930443479269376 In a response to the backlash she received from Tommy’s fans, ThatVeganTeacher made another video calling them out. “Tommyinnit fans, what the f**k is the matter with you guys?” she said, “you’re losing your minds! I saw some of the duets that you guys did, to that little 15-second video I did for him. What the f**k are you guys doing? Some of you are crying, some of you are punching the camera going f***ing crazy.” https://www.tiktok.com/@thatveganteacher/video/6909488493324553478?lang=en&sender_device=pc&sender_web_id=6891581267042141701&is_from_webapp=v2 She goes on to say “you know he’s at college, I’m a teacher. I’m allowed to talk to him. You know what you should be crying about? The r*pe, the torture, and the murder on all of your plates.” Tommy has yet to make his own response to the situation, but fans are continuing to react to the unexpected interaction between the pair via duets on TikTok.

KSI is scared of Dream’s fans.” https://twitter.com/karInappity/status/1375638670217146369 Some fans took issue with the comment, with one writing, “we do not hate him [KSI] because he curses, we hate him for his past of offensive remarks such as ableism and transphobia that have hurt minorities.” Read More: Corinna Kopf actually gets a Doge tattoo – “Reducing hurt people down to dream fans is extremely harmful.

Set to be one of the most anticipated influencer-boxing matches yet, Jake Paul and Tommy Fury have tried to touch gloves on numerous occasions in the past. The pair were originally set to step in the ring back in late 2021, however, Fury suffered from an injury — canceling the fight.

  • TommyInnit admits Dream didn’t want to invite him to DreamSMP – Dexerto

    TommyInnit admits Dream didn’t want to invite him to DreamSMP YouTube: TommyInnitMinecraft YouTube star TommyInnit has admitted that Dream was hesitant to invite him to the DreamSMP at the beginning. Dream’s Minecraft SMP was undoubtedly one of the biggest groups on the internet during its peak. What started as a few friends became a massive phenomenon that even had its own dedicated Spotify genre. A huge factor in the DreamSMP’s success was the introduction of TommyInnit to the server, who arguably – for better or worse – changed up the game entirely. However, the young Minecraft star has admitted that Dream was hesitant to even invite him to the server to begin with. During a podcast with influencer duo Colin and Samir, the 18-year-old YouTuber opened up about how joining the DreamSMP came to fruition. Surprisingly, the Minecraft star revealed that Dream didn’t even want to invite him at first. “I asked him to be in and originally he was like, ‘Nah, it’s just me and my close pals,’” he admitted. “Then I think he sort of saw the element of chaos and story in my brain, so I joined and it became quite a lot more. “Now there’s some action and drama going, and then Wilbur joined, and that’s when it became quite a lot more like sophisticated and literary,” he said. “That sort of blossomed the idea of like you can almost have a theatrical story in a sever.” He continued: “Dream was hesitant to add me, because he knew I was going to be a d**khead. The first time I logged on, I killed people, blew shit up and stole things, and pretended I didn’t. But bare in mind, the day before they were building a house together and reading donations.” (Timestamp at 4:35) In the end, we can sure bet that Dream was glad he changed his mind and opened up the server. It’s fair to say TommyInnit’s character had quite the impact on the SMP, which did wonders for all the members’ growth as creators.

However, his upcoming fight against British reality star-turned-boxer Tommy Fury is a big step from his previous bouts against retired sports stars and former UFC champs. Coming off his split-decision victory over Tyron Woodley, Paul has his sights set on Tommy Fury… but his contract allegedly includes a good handful of interesting clauses that Fury’s father, retired pro boxer John Fury, isn’t a fan of.

That’s not all; Fury then claimed that Paul “wouldn’t sign up for the Vada testing,” referencing a drug test for combat sports athletes from the The Voluntary Anti-Doping Association. “That bothered me a little bit,” Fury admitted. “Because I wanted that in the contract.

Clearly fake the emoji used didn’t come out til 2019 when she supposedly sent this message in 2018 pic.twitter.com/7hfgjQNXdo — Bethany (@bethanylily2001) May 20, 2021 Not only that, but it’s clear that the screenshot had several inconsistencies when comparing it to how Instagram DMs actually look. Couldn’t even get the username and name the right way round 😂 pic.twitter.com/4bEC9wLdzQ — Jasmine (@Jascarrier) May 20, 2021 While Jake maintains that he’s not interested in fighting the pro-boxer, the offer seems too tempting to pass up, and it’s clear that some people would be interested in seeing the outcome. The youngest Paul brother is not the only one causing a buzz in the boxing world — Logan is also set to fight Floyd Mayweather on June 6 at the Hard Rock Stadium in Miami.

  • Tommy Fury’s dad reveals problems with Jake Paul fight negotiation – Dexerto

    Tommy Fury’s dad reveals problems with Jake Paul fight negotiation Amanda Westcott for ShowtimeThe long-awaited fight between Jake Paul and Tommy Fury may finally be in the cards according to the Love Island star’s father, but there are some problems with the negotiations that may prevent the bout from happening. Influencer-turned-boxer Jake Paul was scheduled to take on Tommy Fury back in December of 2021, but a last-minute drop out by Fury resulted in The Problem Child having a rematch with former UFC champ Tyron Woodley instead. Paul won the rematch via KO and hasn’t fought since, but will mark his return to the ring on August 6 at Madison Square Garden, but as of yet, he doesn’t have an opponent. Now, amid rumors that a fight between Paul and Fury could finally happen, Fury’s dad has revealed some difficulties getting the match booked. Tommy Fury senior weighs in on Jake Paul fight In an interview with Metro, the former boxer explained that while his team is looking into the fight, there is still a “long way to go with it.” “That’s still in negotiation and up in the air, the lawyers are dealing with it as we speak,” he explained. “If not August for Tommy’s next fight, it’ll be September because we’re busy ourselves up until then.” He further added that he doesn’t care what Jake Paul does unless he’s fighting Tommy, but there’s even a chance the bout doesn’t go on as some hope. “We’re trying our best to get the fight with Tommy over the line, but there are a couple of major factors we’re trying to get ironed out and if we can, we’ll do it, and if we can’t it’ll be someone else,” the Irishman remarked. “Whoever’s out there and it’s sensible, we’ll get it on.” With August 6 creeping closer and closer, it’s anyone’s guess when Jake Paul’s next opponent will be revealed as the boxer looks to continue his undefeated streak and improve to 6-0. Will it be Tommy Fury or someone else? We’ll have to wait and see.

However, not just any movie or role will work! Fury has in mind precisely what he’d like to do, as he already had a reality gig on Love Island in 2019.

But I think I’ll have an easier way into it, because I don’t want to do serious acting — I just want to do horror films.” Fury didn’t reveal when he would like to transition from boxing into acting. However, the undefeated boxer was sure that whether he wins or loses, starring in horror films would be the next chapter in his career.

  • Tommy Fury wants to fight Jake Paul & KSI on same night: “Two fools that need shutting up” – Dexerto

    Tommy Fury wants to fight Jake Paul & KSI on same night: “Two fools that need shutting up” YouTube: VIPBoxingPromotionsTommy Fury is eager to fight both KSI and Jake Paul, and the British boxer is even willing to take on the two YouTubers on the same fight card. As Jake Paul has looked to make an even bigger splash in the world of boxing, he’s gone after some professional boxers over the last few years. Though, none more than Tommy Fury. Fury, who is both a boxer and reality TV star, has engaged in a back-and-forth beef with Jake for a little while now, and the pair have agreed to fight twice. However, neither of those fights happened due to problems on Tommy’s end. Another of Jake Paul’s rivals, KSI, has also entered the fray, calling out Tommy after beating Swarmz and Luis Pineda on the same fight card. Tommy is eager to replicate KSI’s accomplishment but with the two YouTubers instead. Tommy Fury wants KSI and Jake Paul fights on the same night The undefeated British boxing prospect was quizzed about the callouts following his brother Roman’s event on October 8, and he stated that he’d be open to fighting both KSI and Jake on the same night. “I mean, they all can’t keep my name out of their mouth for some reason,” Fury told SecondsOut, dissing KSI’s faith with Luis Pineda in the process. “In regards to KSI and Jake Paul, they know where I am. I’ve got a proper fight coming up that I’m in camp for now, just got a few things left to get over the line and hopefully get out again on Tyson’s undercard, that’s the plan, and then they know where I’m at. I’ve said all along, I’d fight the both of them in the same night.” Timestamp of 1:55 The pro boxer said that fighting the two YouTubers is “not a problem” and he’s willing to make it happen before long. “I don’t know what the other one, KSI, is mentioning my name for because he’s even worse than Jake Paul, so I don’t really know what’s going on to be fair,” Fury added. “Two fools that need shutting up.” Despite multiple fight dates with Tommy being canceled, Jake has shown a willingness to want to fight his long-time rival and even said he’d do it in the UK. Though, it remains to be seen if it’ll be pulled off.

  • Tommy Fury teases boxing match with One Direction’s Liam Payne – Dexerto

    Tommy Fury teases boxing match with One Direction’s Liam Payne Instagram: TommyFury, LiamPayneBritish boxer Tommy Fury has teased what appears to be a possible boxing match with former One Direction star Liam Payne, leaving fans flabbergasted. Tommy Fury is fresh off his match against Jake Paul, which he won by split-decision this February. This marked Paul’s first-ever boxing loss and was a huge victory for Fury, who’d been feuding with the American YouTuber for years. Now, it’s looking like Fury has secured another massive opponent — one that was completely unexpected. On April 12, 2023, Fury posted a fight poster to his Instagram account that appears to be teasing a bout with none other than One Direction’s Liam Payne. The poster claims that the fight will take place “this summer,” with a forthcoming announcement set for tomorrow, April 13. The fight locale is set at the Old Trafford arena in Stretford, Manchester. Although this might seem like a belated April Fool’s joke at first glance, Liam Payne has also posted the same fight poster to his Instagram account, making this fight seem more legit than ever. Both stars captioned their posts with the eyes emoji. Is Tommy Fury vs Liam Payne boxing match real? Fans’ responses to this bout have been decidedly mixed, with many expressing shock and confusion at this seemingly random matchup. However, others are speculating that this may not be a fight, at all, but instead an event of a different sort. Instead, many are claiming that Fury and Payne could be making an appearance at Soccer Aid, a celebrity charity football match taking place in June at the Old Trafford arena — details that match up with information on the supposed fight poster. A boxing match between these celebs isn’t out of the question, though, as Fury previously stated that his next match will be “bigger than Jake Paul.” If true, this wouldn’t be the first major influencer-boxing match to involve a real-world celebrity. Boxing champ Floyd Mayweather has faced off with two high-profile influencers in the past, and WWE star John Morrison is set to feature on the upcoming Creator Clash 2 card this weekend. Of course, we can’t discount Jake Paul’s 2022 bout against MMA legend Anderson Silva, either, nor rapper Blueface’s involvement in Austin McBroom vs AnEsonGib. For now, many details about this bout are slim — but fans will just have to wait for April 13 to learn more.

  • Tommy Fury slams KSI’s fight appeal as he’s open to Jake Paul rematch – Dexerto

    Tommy Fury slams KSI’s fight appeal as he’s open to Jake Paul rematch YouTube: Pro Boxing FansTommy Fury has slammed KSI’s appeal of their fight result as a “load of s*it” and admitted he is the “only” fight for Jake Paul once he makes his boxing ring. Despite not being a traditional YouTuber, Tommy Fury has been sucked into the world of influencer boxing and defeated the two top dogs – KSI and Jake Paul. The British reality TV star, who has a background in boxing, most recently defeated KSI by unanimous decision, but that result was viewed as a contentious one. Many claimed that the YouTuber had won that fight after landing some good shots on Fury. KSI has since appealed that result in the hopes of getting something his way. However, Tommy isn’t too concerned that anything will happen. Tommy Fury addresses KSI’s appeal of boxing match result The reality TV star was speaking to Pro Boxing Fans in Saudi Arabia ahead of his brother Tyson’s fight with Francis Ngannou when he was quizzed about the appeal and Jake Paul’s future. “Load of s*it, its a load of s*it. He lost fair and square, it was what it was. They’ve already changed it to unanimous in my favor so, good appeal mate. I came to fight, and he was getting instructed by his corner to hold me. One guy came to fight, the other guy didn’t so that’s the way it turned out like it did,” he said about KSI’s appeal. He also quickly changed focus to Jake Paul, stating he’s open to that rematch and that he is the “only” fight for the YouTuber-turned-boxer. “Me and Jake Paul are dance partners, and he knows that himself. Me and him will always make a good fight, always make a big fight. So whatever he’s doing, I’m sure me and him will meet again one day,” Tommy concluded. Jake is scheduled to fight on December 15 against an, as of yet, unnamed opponent. Tommy is definitely ruled out for that given he only fought on October 14. There has also been chat that Jake has accepted an offer from PFL to fight Nate Diaz inside their cage, however, it takes two to tango and Nate is adamant he won’t fight for the PFL. So, who knows.

    Tommy Fury still desperate to fight Jake Paul: “You pick the place” YouTube: VIPBoxingPromotions/Jake PaulTommy Fury believes that a fight between himself and Jake Paul has to happen, and he’s willing to fight anywhere in the world so that they can settle their score. Amid years of back and forth on social media, sending plenty of barbs at each other, Jake Paul and Tommy Fury have tried to schedule a fight on two separate occasions now – but both have fallen through at the last minute. The first fight, which was supposed to happen at the end of 2021, was shelved due to an injury that Tommy picked up late in training camp. When a second date was rearranged, the Brit was unable to travel to the United States to take part in a pre-fight press conference with Jake. As both fights have been canceled due to problems on his part, Tommy’s camp has stated that they’re “unsure” if a fight will ever happen at this point, but the Brit is convinced he and Jake have to fight at some point. Tommy Fury still wants Jake Paul fight The undefeated heavyweight was quizzed about the rivalry by VIPBoxingPromotions, as he told the YouTube channel that things are “too far gone” for a fight between the pair to not happen. “In this game, you need a good dance partner and I can’t say it any fairer than this, I will fight you in any single place in this world,” Tommy said. “You don’t have to come to England, I’ll fight you in Canada next to America, I’m not bothered.” The 23-year-old stated that his team are trying to “sort out” his travel troubles so that he can enter the United States, and that’s why he’s still leaving it on the table as an option. Timestamp of 3:00 “Hopefully we can get it resolved and I can go to America and fight him, but if I can’t, I’ll fight him anywhere else in the world. I can’t say it fairer than that. What more can I say? I’ll fight him anywhere else on the planet, you pick, not bothered and I’ll be there,” he added, putting the onus on Jake. As we’ve seen, the YouTuber-turned-boxer isn’t fighting this summer, but there have been talks about a fight in October. Though, who knows who that would be against. Jake has also agreed to fight KSI at some point in 2023, which would put an end to their longtime feud. So, we’ll have to wait and see if he’ll settle two scores in quick succession.

Now, fans have their eyes locked on the next massive fight, as many call for KSI and Jake Paul to finally face off after years of anticipation. Noting that Fury has touched gloves and taken down both KSI and Jake Paul, the Love Island star was asked for his predictions on the ultimate YouTube showdown. Tommy Fury reveals KSI vs Jake Paul predictions From his own experience going blow-for-blow with both of them in the ring, Tommy explained in a recent interview with FightHubTV that he believes Jake Paul easily beats ‘The Nightmare’ KSI. “I think Jake Paul will knock him out,” Tommy said without any hesitation. “He just knows what he’s doing Jake, doesn’t he? He’s actually not that bad. Jake’s better than some prospects in actual boxing.” He added: “What do you expect? He’s training with the best and putting the time and hours in. KSI isn’t it. I do believe Jake Paul wins that easy to be fair.” While Fury claimed Jake would get the KO, he also explained it wouldn’t be a simple task, admitting that KSI’s fighting style is hard for anybody to go up against. However, if KSI engages with his opponent, he thinks the fight will be Jake’s to take. “It’s one of them, it depends on what KSI turns up. If he keeps doing that, that’s not easy for anybody. But if he engages with Jake, Jake will knock him out.” For now, we’ll just have to wait until Jake Paul and KSI finally touch the gloves to see what happens. Thankfully, the fight may be sooner than fans anticipate, as another Prime Card event is rumored for mid-2024.

Both Fury and Paul have made digs at each other on social media. The fight will happen on August 29 on Jake Paul’s undercard. Tommy, who is the younger brother of Tyson Fury, will be making his US debut. The news was announced by Jake Paul in a video posted to his Instagram where he sought to provoke Fury before the match.

Taylor and Paul also mocked Fury’s name, calling him “Fairy.” View this post on Instagram Fury then responded on his Instagram “with just a little message for [his] two favorite boys” and says Taylor “won’t look so pretty after the 29th as I’m going to smash the whole front of your face clean in.” He said that’s a “promise” and proceeds to call Taylor an “Oompa Loompa” and says he’s then coming for Paul because “both of [them] couldn’t beat [Fury] on the same night together.” View this post on Instagram Fury said he thought Paul and Taylor’s digs were “cheap” and wanted them “to say it to my face.” Things then escalated further during an interview with Fury where he said he’s going “to take no sh*t off him down there.” He said he’ll wear a cap on purpose to encourage Paul to try and steal it so that he can punch Paul “the hardest he’s ever hit anyone in my life.” Fury also referenced Paul’s beef with Floyd Mayweather and a fight that appeared to result in Paul crying. In an interview with Sky Sports, Fury has said he doesn’t see Paul “as a real boxer.” Paul has yet to respond to Fury’s comments though we can sure expect things to heat up as the fight approaches.

Fury made his professional debut in 2018 where he was victorious against Jevgenijs Andrejevs. Fury also competed on the fifth season of the dating show Love Island where he finished as runner-up against current girlfriend, Molly-May Hague.

    Tommy Fury says he’s got “bigger” fights than Jake Paul despite rematch agreement Instagram: Tommy Fury/BT SportTommy Fury has cast doubt on a possible rematch with Jake Paul, suggesting that his next fight will be “bigger” than his clash with the YouTuber. At the end of February, Tommy Fury and Jake Paul settled their long-standing beef as they finally settled into the boxing ring in Saudi Arabia. Despite Jake’s promise of a victory, it was Tommy who scored the win via split decision – even though he was knocked down in the seventh round. Since then, there has been plenty of talk about a rematch and them doing it again. Jake, naturally, wants to get his win back, and there have been reports of the pair preparing to fight again in July. However, it appears as if Tommy has plans to do something different before then, as he’s cast a bit of doubt over the rematch happening as soon as this summer. Tommy Fury casts doubts on Jake Paul rematch being next The undefeated Brit appeared on Sky Sports’ Soccer AM on March 25 to talk about the fight and, naturally, he was quizzed on the much talked about plans for a rematch. “I’m down for the rematch, I’d fight him tomorrow, there’s no issue,” Tommy said. “But, does he want it now? I’m not so sure. Even with that, he was the one barking up the hill but I’m sitting on the top of that hill now, so it’s my call. “There’s a lot of meetings going on this week about potential fights but, believe you and me, the next fight I take will be bigger than Jake Paul.” Since that win over Jake, Tommy has been ranked as the 39th-best Cruiserweight and could start climbing up those ranks if he chooses to. If he does choose to fight again soonish, that would scupper any plans for a fight with Jake in July, so we’ll just have to wait and see what happens.

  • Tommy Fury has reached out to Jake Paul to get fight “back on track” for 2022 – Dexerto

    Tommy Fury has reached out to Jake Paul to get fight “back on track” for 2022 Instagram: Tommy Fury / YouTube: Jake PaulTommy Fury has one goal for 2022: get his fight with Jake Paul. After the boxing star had to pull out due to a broken rib — forcing Paul into a rematch with Tyron Woodley — Fury wants to set the record straight and hand Jake his first loss in 2022. The Tommy Fury vs Jake Paul fight was one of the most hotly-contested bouts to end 2021 on. However, just two weeks out from the fight, the younger brother of Tyson Fury had to drop out due to a broken rib and chest infection. The sudden cancellation led to more taunting from Jake Paul, who called Fury’s “boxing’s biggest b*tch,” as well as taunting from fans of the former YouTuber. However, Fury is ready to set the record straight and get their fight “back on track” once he’s recovered early next year. “I’ve been putting all my time, all my focus into my recovery which is going as good as it can be going,” he said on Instagram on December 22. “I do believe the fight is even bigger now. It’s business. My team is reaching out to his team to sort out a date for early next year. My recovery process is underway, I’ll be ready to go in March, so let’s get this fight back on track.” Fury, who is still recovering from his injury, said the backlash he received after pulling out has been “tough to deal with”. ““I’ve been feeling pretty low. It’s a major setback for me, but it’s the first time I’ve been on the opposite side. What I mean by that is I’ve been there where everyone’s asking how you are, they can’t get enough of you, and then when you have a setback it’s so crazy,” he explained. “Everyone’s texting you a million times a day asking about the fight, asking about training and then when something like this happens, you see the other side of people texting you ‘you’re a p*ssy, you’re a sh*thouse, you’re not a fighter’.” Tommy Fury on Paul vs Woodley rematch Tommy Fury also roasted Jake Paul’s performance against Tyron Woodley in their rematch — which took place instead of the Fury bout. He claimed the fight was “pretty painful to watch”, and even the commentators said as much. “It wasn’t great. He’d meant to be training for months and months on end, and he went in the ring and hugged it out for the first five rounds,” he said. “When you’ve got the commentators laughing between themselves round saying ‘who won that’ or ‘oh I don’t know because no one threw any punches’ or comments like ‘the fight’s getting hard to watch now’ — it’s all negatives that you don’t want to be hearing.” Despite Jake Paul stirring the post with suggestions Tyson caused Tommy’s injury to pull him out of the fight, the Fury brother wants to be the one that gives Jake his first loss in the ring. “I just want to get back fighting fit. Get my recovery out of the way, get back in the gym, and get this fight rescheduled. That’s all I want, that’s all that’s on my mind right now, and that’s all I’m working towards. This fight will be the first thing for me. “My team have reached out to [Jake Paul’s] team in regards to a rescheduled fight. He knows where it’s at and knows I want this fight. He’s made comments saying we have been ‘silent’ which is absolutely not the case.”

Tommy Fury on his win against Jake Paul “Everybody said Jake Paul would knock me out and guess what, they were wrong. I can here tonight, first time at the big dance I delivered. I showed everyone I can handle the pressure I went in there and did what I said I was going to do. I got the win.” When asked how he felt Jake Paul performed, Fury complimented that YouTube star before teasing that their eventual rematch will be an even better fight. “No listen Jake Paul is a tough guy…he delivered but at the end of the day I’m levels above him and when the rematch gets made, you’ll see a lot better fight. There was a lot of pressure going into this match, my little girl was born three weeks ago so I had to deal with that but I’m here now with a win.” And finally, Fury reflected on his own performance in the ring, admitting that his precision and more focused hits are what got him the win and why the judges awarded the fight to him over Jake. “I know I landed the cleaner punches and that was it. Thank god the judges scored with what actually landed.” And while a rematch between Tommy Fury and Jake Paul is well and truly on the cards, KSI seems interested in getting his hands on Jake Paul before Fury get’s his second shot. However, time will tell who Jake Paul’s next opponent is. For all the latest entertainment news and updates, be sure to check out Dexerto’s full coverage here.

  • Tommy Fury promises to “end” YouTube boxing by defeating KSI & Jake Paul – Dexerto

    Tommy Fury promises to “end” YouTube boxing by defeating KSI & Jake Paul Twitter: Sky Sports BoxingTommy Fury is aiming to “end” the YouTube boxing scene as his proposed fight with KSI is inching ever closer to happening – and he’s aiming to beat Jake Paul again too. Over the last few years, Tommy Fury has had an ongoing feud with Jake Paul. The two have constantly traded blows on social media and, at long last, inside the ring as well. Back in February, Tommy became the first blemish on Jake’s boxing record, defeating the YouTuber by split decision. While there had been talk of a rematch happening in July, Jake’s fight with Nate Diaz in August has complicated things on that front. That has led Tommy and KSI to start negotiating on a possible clash, especially after KSI’s recent clash with Joe Fournier. Now, the two Brits are expecting the fight to happen, and Tommy wants to put an end to YouTuber boxing with it. Tommy Fury lays out KSI and Jake Paul rematch plans The Love Island star spoke to Sky Sports ahead of his brother, Roman Fury, recent fight on June 16, talking about the “hit list” he has in mind to finish off YouTube boxing. “I think 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,” he told Sky Sports. “That’s my plan for this year, I want to end YouTuber boxing within 12 months. That’s my plan, so we’ll see.” Tommy also stated he’s “happy” to take Jake Paul on again in the new year after Jake offered him the chance to fight at some point in February 2024. It remains to be seen if these fights will actually happen, but it at least seems that they’re getting closer.

  • Tommy Fury offers Jake Paul fight date as he’ll clash with rival “anywhere” – Dexerto

    Tommy Fury offers Jake Paul fight date as he’ll clash with rival “anywhere” YouTube: DAZN/Jake PaulTommy Fury has proposed a date for a fight with Jake Paul, stating that he’ll take on the YouTuber “anywhere” he wants. Just not in the United States. Jake Paul and Tommy Fury have come close to fighting on two separate occasions now, as the pair look to settle their long-standing feud once and for all. They were first scheduled to fight at the end of 2021, but Tommy pulled out due to an injury he suffered late in training camp. They rearranged that for August of 2022, but the Fury camp had legal troubles when it came to traveling to the United States. After that, Jake set his sights on Anderson Silva, and stated that he was moving on from the feud with Tommy. Though the desire to see them fight remains strong with fans, and the Fury camp are up for it. Tommy Fury says he’ll fight Jake Paul “anywhere” but the US The British reality TV star is stepping back into the ring on November 13 against Paul Bamba, and wants to fight Jake shortly after. In fact, he says he’d take the YouTuber on within 24 hours of his fight with Bamba. “I’m not interested in anything he does. If he wants to fight me, he knows where I am, and that’s it. If he wants to do anything about it, let’s get it done and dusted because it’s been going on way too long,” Tommy told DAZN when asked for his thoughts on the Paul brothers. “I am here, honestly, just call me. My American stuff still hasn’t been sorted so if he wants to fight he’ll have to come over here. I’ll fight him the day after Paul Bamba.” Fury offered up Dubai and the UK as possible locations for the fight, but also noted that he’d do it “anywhere” Jake wants. Though, the United States is clearly off the table. It remains to be seen if the pair will ever actually fight, but Jake is putting the onus on the FUry camp to take the financial hit this time around. So, who knows.

  • Tommy Fury predicts Jake Paul over Tyron Woodley: ‘He won’t fight anyone who can beat him’ – Dexerto

    Tommy Fury predicts Jake Paul over Tyron Woodley: ‘He won’t fight anyone who can beat him’ Instagram/jakepaul/YouTube/BT SportTyson Fury’s younger brother Tommy has severe doubts that former UFC fighter Tyron Woodley can beat Jake Paul when the two duke it out in August. Jake Paul has taken the boxing world by storm, securing multiple victories in the ring, most recently being a first round knockout of former mixed martial artist Ben Askren. Now, Paul is facing his biggest challenge yet in the form of former UFC Welterweight Champion Tyron Woodley. In an interview with DAZN, the undefeated 5-0 Tommy Fury was asked about what he thinks about Jake Paul’s upcoming match, who he thinks will win and potentially facing the YouTuber himself. While the likes of UFC President Dana White and Rocky actor Sylvester Stallone have picked Woodley to win, Fury believes Jake Paul is too “cunning” to pick an opponent who could beat him. “He has earned a lot of money and if there was any chance of Tyron Woodley beating Jake Paul that contract wouldn’t have got signed,” Fury explained. “Why would Jake Paul put himself in a position where he is going to get knocked spark out? He is not going to fight anybody who will test him because he doesn’t need to.” It’s definitely an interesting point. Given Paul’s career so far, he’s been impressive, but some have argued he’s yet to face a real opponent. And for Fury, he thinks this is still the case. Tommy Fury would fight Jake Paul “any day of the week” That said, it doesn’t mean that Fury himself isn’t against stepping up to fight Jake Paul and warned the influencer that it wouldn’t be fun and games if they were to duke it out. “If Jake Paul gets in the ring with me it will be dangerous for him, but keep fighting these clowns he’s fighting and it’s not going to be dangerous for him,” he said. Meanwhile, Tyson and Tommy Fury’s promoter Frank Warren made the case for a bout between Jake and the WBC Heavyweight Champion’s brother. After praising Jake for taking advantage of his followers to push a boxing career, Warren said a potential fight between him and Tommy is absolutely on the table. “If he wants to fight Tommy, that fight is there every day of the week,” he revealed. “The level Tommy is at now is a level above Jake. If Jake wants that fight, he isn’t even pushing an open door. The hinges are off and he just needs to walk in and we will do it.” “I will carry Tommy there for the fight. It’s a no-brainer and the general public will watch it,” he added. This opinion was echoed by Tommy in an interview with BT Sport where the boxer said that he’d be down for a match with Jake “any day of the week.” If Tommy’s prediction for the match between Jake and Woodley holds true, it seems increasingly possible that he could end up being next in line to fight the influencer. We’ll have to see what the future holds when Paul and Woodley face off on August 28.

  • Tommy Fury makes career-threatening promise over Jake Paul boxing match – Dexerto

    Tommy Fury makes career-threatening promise over Jake Paul boxing match YouTube: Frank Warren’s Queensberry PromotionsReality TV star Tommy Fury says he’ll “100 percent retire” if he loses to rival influencer Jake Paul in their highly-anticipated boxing match at the end of this month. Tommy Fury will finally touch gloves with longtime rival Jake Paul on February 26 after canceling on the YouTube star on two separate occasions in the past. At first, the two were set to face off in the ring in December 2021, but a last-minute injury reportedly stopped their bout from taking place. In Summer 2022, Tommy pulled out of yet another match with ‘The Problem Child’ due to travel difficulties that prevented him from entering the United States. Tommy Fury says he’ll “100% retire” if he loses to Jake Paul Now, following the birth of his firstborn child, Fury is making good on his promise at last… and says he’ll face some dire, self-imposed consequences if he loses this time. In an interview with talkSPORT, Fury claimed that he would actually retire from the family business of boxing if he loses to Jake Paul in their upcoming bout — but says he’s confident that he won’t actually have to do so. “If you lose the fight — I know you think you won’t, but you have to answer yes or no — if you were to lose it against Jake Paul, would you retire?” a host asked. “Yes, 100 percent, definitely,” he answered. “If I can’t beat Jake Paul, I don’t belong in the ring.” (Topic begins at 10:15) Despite both his brother and father being in the boxing world, Tommy has other pursuits that have made him somewhat of a household name — his wide social media following being one of them, on top of his former stint on Love Island. For now, Fury is adamant that he’s going to show up on Fight Night despite being a no-show for their press conference on February 8. In fact, Jake claims he’s even got a replacement fight lined up, should something prevent his British rival from following through. (You know what they say, fool me once…)

  • Tommy Fury mocks Jake Paul as an “easy fight” and wants to prove it – Dexerto

    Tommy Fury mocks Jake Paul as an “easy fight” and wants to prove it Instagram: Jake Paul/Tommy FuryTommy Fury believes Jake Paul would be an “easy” fight for himself, but is still open to fighting the YouTuber at some point because it’s what people want. After going back and forth online for a few years, Jake Paul and Tommy Fury were finally set to settle their differences in the boxing ring at the end of 2021. However, a late injury to Fury curtailed those plans and forced the fight to be canceled. In the wake of the cancellation, Jake defeated Tyron Woodley and stated that he had no plans to rearrange the fight with Tommy. Though, that hasn’t quelled the talk about it potentially happening at some point. The Fury camp has repeatedly stated that Jake and Tommy is the ‘biggest’ fight for the social media star, given just how much fans want it to happen. Though, if they do square off, the Brit believes he’d be in for a pretty easy night against the Ohio native. Tommy joined The Unibet Lowdown on April 5, after it was confirmed that he’d be a part of the undercard for the Tyson Fury vs Dillian Whyte bout at Wembley at the end of the month. When asked about potentially touching gloves with Jake, he was particularly brutal in his answers. “Whenever I get asked about Jake Paul, I don’t know, it doesn’t really spring towards me because that’s an easy fight out there for me. It’s a really easy fight for me when I’m used to fighting guys who are hungry and with their life on the line.” The Brit also referred to the fact that his social media replies have been filled with requests to fight Jake, but he’s putting the ball in the American’s court. “I see he wants to fight in August. I’m not sure who he’s going to fight but if he wants the viewing figures back, a big fight that people are interested in, he knows where it’s at,” he said. Timestamp of 8:23 Tommy stated that he is open to fighting Jake once he’s fought on his brother’s undercard, but he is unlikely to be Jake’s opponent for the August bout. The YouTuber has previously said, on a few occasions, that he’s leaving Tommy “in the dust” as he moves forward. So, it remains to be seen if the fight will ever happen.

  • Tommy Fury laughs off Jake Paul’s £1m fight offer: “Get your figures up” – Dexerto

    Tommy Fury laughs off Jake Paul’s £1m fight offer: “Get your figures up” Amanda Westcott for ShowtimeAlthough Jake Paul’s next challenger certainly appears to be Tommy Fury, the two are yet to reach an agreement as the British boxing star has laughed off initial £1m offers. Weeks removed from Paul’s latest victory over former UFC champion Tyron Woodley and the speculation continues as to who he might face next. While various other MMA icons have put forward their own offers, the social media celebrity seems to have his sights on one name in particular. Following a brief scuffle at their last boxing event, Paul has since confirmed Fury is his next target. In fact, multiple bout agreements have already been sent to The Gypsy King’s younger brother, according to Paul. Hours after these negotiations were made public, Fury has now taken to social media himself, issuing a response while laughing at Paul’s offers. https://twitter.com/Dexerto/status/1432285178097979394 “He’s come out and said I’ve denied two offers to fight him,” Fury addressed in a September 22 Instagram story. “I have,” he followed up, confirming that these offers were indeed real. But why exactly did he turn them down? For the rising 22-year-old boxing star, the offers from Paul’s camp were not even worth “addressing.” “He’s come out and said that he wants to give me £1m to fight him. I just want to say this… to everybody out there, a million pounds for a fight of this magnitude, it’s not even worth getting out of bed for.” Having taken a split-decision win over an accomplished MMA fighter, Paul’s next challenge is to step in the ring with a certified boxer. As a result, there’s more intrigue surrounding this clash than any other option at this stage, Fury stressed. “This fight is gonna gross millions and millions of pounds,” he claimed. “I can’t walk down the street without anybody asking me ‘when are you gonna fight Jake?’” Tommy “Fury” has denied 2 abundant offers from my team. Timmy “Fury”…. this is your last offer… $1 million, 8 rounds. 4x more than you have ever made. Either step up and fight OR accept that you and your Dad don’t believe in you @tommytntfury. — Jake Paul (@jakepaul) September 21, 2021 For all the potential hype, a £1m offer just isn’t “serious” enough for Fury. “In boxing terms, a million pounds is nothing, especially for a fight of this size. He absolutely knows that I’m never going to accept the fight for this money, hence why he’s made this offer. “Tomorrow isn’t soon enough to fight you,” Fury added, clearly still eager to secure the highly anticipated Paul event. “I can fight you whenever, it doesn’t matter. Get your figures up and we can talk.” View this post on Instagram Paul reportedly walked away with $2 million for his latest PPV clash against Woodley. The lowest earner on that card was none other than Fury, who claimed just $15,000 in his disclosed fight purse. While that figure obviously doesn’t account for various bonuses and undisclosed earnings, £1m appears to be a far cry from what Fury is seeking next.

  • Tommy Fury reveals how Jake Paul match could still happen – Dexerto

    Tommy Fury reveals how Jake Paul match could still happen Instagram: tommyfury, jakepaulThe boxing match between Jake Paul and Tommy Fury has been called off ever since the latter was denied entry in the United States, but that doesn’t mean that the fighters are giving up on the bout. YouTuber-turned-boxer Jake Paul has been courting combat spots talents to see who he’ll pair up with next after his rematch with Tyron Woodley back in December. His second victory over the former MMA champ got a lot of people interested in the Problem Child as he looks to go 6-0 with his next event. Though he was lined up to duke it out with the younger Fury brother, those plans have all but been put on hold since the British boxer was refused entry into the country where it was set to take place. After all the trash talk and rousing from both camps, it doesn’t seem like Fury wants this fight to die in the water and is hopeful that talks will pick up in the future. In the wake of his forced cancellation, Fury has hopes that he and Paul can still schedule something in what he calls a “neutral country.” “I’m gutted and disappointed in regard to the issues I have faced with entry into the USA,” he began. “I am confident this fight will happen when this issue gets resolved and we come to a solution. “I want to clarify that I will fight in a neutral country that both parties can enter. This can be any time, any place, anywhere.” Despite his resolve, it seems like the match will be put on hold for a bit longer than fans might want. Paul has already landed an opponent for his August event. The YouTuber will face off against 12-1 pro boxer Hasim Rahman Jr. at Madison Square Garden ahead of any possible reschedule with Fury. But if the two sides find a common avenue to land a deal, then Fury is looking forward to finally stepping into the squared circle against Paul.

  • Tommy Fury in talks to fight KSI instead of Jake Paul rematch – Dexerto

    Tommy Fury in talks to fight KSI instead of Jake Paul rematch DexertoTommy Fury could be taking on KSI in his next boxing bout after ending Jake Paul’s undefeated streak. Jake Paul’s perfect boxing record came to a screeching halt when he took on Tommy Fury in Saudi Arabia back in February and came out on the losing end of a split decision. Despite the defeat, Paul and Fury were supposed to run it back and have a rematch, but it seems like that might be out of the picture with the former Love Island star itching to take on Jake’s rival instead. According to Tommy Fury’s dad, John Fury, there are discussions about getting a match against KSI booked instead of giving Jake Paul a chance to avenge his loss. Tommy Fury vs KSI in the works according to Fury’s father In a chat with Mirror Fighting, John Fury claimed that he was in talks with the Sauerland brothers about a boxing match against KSI. “I had a meeting with them the other day and it went well. Let’s see what happens. I am still waiting to hear from them, but they did text me the other day saying they are really busy and they are on it. “Whoever else wants to box Tommy, ring the number and get in touch. I don’t deal with the Jake Paul rematch, I am on a rest period and I have just left that to my lawyer. But I’m sure if it can be done, we can do it,” he explained. To make things worse for The Problem Child, KSI is on board with taking on Fury after he battles Joe Fournier at Misfits 007. Tommy Fury has also hinted that his next fight would be bigger than the Jake Paul match, so a possible rematch seems to be in quite a bit of jeopardy. In any case, be sure to keep it locked to Dexerto for more in the world of influencer boxing.

  • Tommy Fury issues a warning to KSI: “I doubt KSI would fight me” – Dexerto

    Tommy Fury issues a warning to KSI: “I doubt KSI would fight me” YouTube: Rob MooreTommy Fury has issued a warning to KSI, saying the content creator will be too scared to fight him after the YouTuber sees what he does to Jake Paul this Sunday. With the hotly anticipated fight between Tommy Fury and Jake Paul just days away, Fury has decided to issue a warning to YouTube superstar KSI. As we have reported, KSI has previously challenged Fury to a bout, but only on one condition. If the reality star can beat Jake Paul in their upcoming clash. In an interview with Fred Talks Fighting, Fury was asked about KSI’s conditional challenge and said, “I doubt very much KSI would fight me after he sees what I do to Jake Paul. I’ll put it that way.” But it seems the fight between Fury and KSI will most likely never happen, as KSI is planning to have one last bout against Jake Paul and will retire from boxing. He says he wants to focus more on his music career, and eventually his sports drink venture, Prime. He was also asked about how he stays mentally strong amidst Jake Paul’s wave of taunting and bullying. Such as Paul’s recent video where he warn’s he would “decapitate” Fury. He responded, “there is no case to stay mentally strong, my mind’s bulletproof.” Fury continues, “if I was going into a real title fight for all the marbles I’d say yeah fair enough it’s a 50/50 fight, but I’m fighting Jake Paul in a fight i should absolutely dominate. And I will dominate.” The fight is gearing to begin on Sunday, February 26, at the Diriyah Arena in Diriyah, Saudi Arabia. If you would like to read our coverage of the fight, you can find it here.

  • Tommy Fury hits back at claims he’ll miss Jake Paul fight again – Dexerto

    Tommy Fury hits back at claims he’ll miss Jake Paul fight again Tommy Fury has finally addressed concerns that he won’t show up for his long-awaited fight against Jake Paul on February 26, promising he’ll be in Saudi Arabia. The rivalry between Jake Paul and Tommy Fury can be traced back a few years, as the two influencers have gone back and forth with each other online for a while. They’ve been scheduled to fight twice, once in 2021 and again in 2022, but neither of those happened due to issues on Tommy’s side. They are, once again, signed to fight on February 26, but there have been some concerns that it won’t go ahead. Jake himself said he even “doubts” that his rival makes it to Saudi Arabia. So much so, that Jake has even named former UFC star ‘Platinum’ Mike Perry as the backup fighter if Tommy dips out at the last minute. Though, the pro boxer claims that won’t be happening. Tommy Fury promises to show up for Jake Paul fight this time Jake, as well as a few of his fans, have suggested that Tommy might not show given the fact he and his partner Molly-Mae have just had their first child. However, speaking to TMZ Sports, Tommy downplayed any concerns about him not showing up. “I say to those sorts of people that they need to wake up. Don’t worry, I’ll be in Saudi Arabia ready for the 26th,” he said, adding that he “can’t wait” to get over there. “I’m gonna hurt this man seriously come February 26th and if he banking on me for not showing, well, if that’s where he getting his confidence from, then he needs to think again because I’ll be there and I’ll be right in his face come fight night.” Timestamp of 3:50 While Tommy is promising he’ll show up, there is still a fair way to go before fight night comes around. Fans, and Jake, will be desperate to see him on the other side of the ring from the YouTuber-turned-boxer, but it remains to be seen if it actually happens this time.

  • Tommy Fury hits back at KSI’s taunts after beating Jake Paul – Dexerto

    Tommy Fury hits back at KSI’s taunts after beating Jake Paul YouTube: JJ Olatunji, FightHubTVTommy Fury is hitting back at KSI after the YouTube star claimed he could “destroy” Fury in the ring following his victory over Jake Paul on February 26. Tommy Fury has served Jake Paul with the first loss in his previously undefeated career, successfully beating out his longtime rival after multiple delays by split decision on February 26. This long-awaited bout followed multiple delays for the pair, who had been vying for a match that got pushed back and canceled twice over due to travel issues and last-minute injuries. Of course, being the only man to defeat the ‘Problem Child’ has opened Fury up to quite a few challenges from other would-be opponents — namely, YouTuber and rapper KSI. KSI notably called out Fury in a scathing Tweet the night of their fight, boasting he “would destroy both Jake Paul and Tommy Fury.” This taunt didn’t go unnoticed by Fury, who clapped back at the influencer during an interview following his victory over Paul. Tommy Fury slams KSI: “He really is awful” “Just more YouTube talk, innit?” Tommy said of the matter. “What do you expect out of these YouTubers? That’s all they can say, when he’s sat there at his house in London. It’s a lot easier looking at it than trying to get in the ring and doing it. It’s a completely different story.” “KSI? Pfft. He’s not even in my thoughts, because he really is awful. Like, I put Jake Paul above KSI, so he’s not even in my thought process at the moment.” Following Jake Paul’s loss, a rematch clause was activated, meaning Fury and Paul will face off once again to see if the American YouTuber can exact his revenge on the only man to have defeated him — but that bout may have to wait for KSI, whose manager claimed that Paul vs KSI might be moved up to the summer to take place before the rematch happens.

  • Tommy Fury has interest in surprise YouTube fight that’s not KSI or Jake Paul – Dexerto

    Tommy Fury has interest in surprise YouTube fight that’s not KSI or Jake Paul Kick GameTommy Fury is apparently open to fighting KSI, but the British YouTube star isn’t the only YouTuber on his radar it seems. At the end of February, Tommy Fury and Jake Paul finally ended their constant talking by stepping into the ring and fighting in Saudi Arabia. If you’ve been living under a rock, it was Tommy who won the fight, picking up a split-decision victory after being knocked down in the seventh round. In the aftermath, Jake has stated that he wants a rematch with his longtime rival before moving on to something else – which puts a spanner in the works of his plans to get inside the Mixed Martial Arts cage with the PFL. That rematch is apparently being eyed to happen in July. KSI has also registered his interest in fighting Tommy, suggesting the winner of the rematch will be the fighter who he fights last before retiring at the end of 2023. Though, Tommy is apparently keeping his options open. Tommy Fury open to KSI and Salt Papi fights That’s at least according to his dad and coach John Fury, who told Express Sport via FreeBets that Tommy has another YouTuber on his radar – Salt Papi. “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,” Fury said, noting he’s been impressed by what he’s seen from Salt Papi – even if it has only been brief. “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.” As noted, KSI has mapped out his plan to retire at the end of the year, saying he’ll fight in May, August, and then December before focusing on other things like music again. Both he and Salt Papi have been linked to a tag team boxing match with Floyd Mayweather and Manny Pacquiao, which is pretty wild. It remains to be seen if his plan with come to fruition, but the YouTube boxing scene is clearly thriving and there are plenty of options on the table.

The Problem Child and the up-and-coming Fury brother have been itching to find their way to the squared circle for some time now. Though they were initially set to duke it out in December 2021, Fury pulled out with an undisclosed medical condition at the time two weeks before the date. Ever since, the YouTuber-turned-boxer Paul has been waiting for his chance to lace up the mitts against Fury, though word of contract stalls reportedly kept the event on ice. Some of those rumors were said to come from Tommy Fury’s dad, John Fury, who has since come out swinging to downplay his involvement in any such talks. Fury Senior didn’t mince words when expressing how he feels about Paul and made it clear that he has no part to play in his son’s potential fight against the American. “People mentioning me saying there’s negotiations in place for Tommy to fight this clown overseas,” he said, “that’s not true. I’m having nothing to do with this at all. It’s a pile of sh*t. “Don’t like anybody associated with those people over there. They’re nothing but a pack of tossers, Youtubers, and I’m not interested in it in any way, shape, or form… I want nothing to do with this farce at all. Not now, not ever.” This comes on the heels of reports that the Tommy vs Jake fight had hit a snag to get “over the line” and there were a “couple of major factors” to iron out before the two could set a date.

    Tommy Fury vows to end Jake Paul’s boxing career after eight fight win streak IG: Tommy Fury / Jake PaulAfter beating Daniel Bocianski on the undercard of Tyson Fury’s fight against Dillian Whyte and extending his win streak, Tommy Fury called out Jake Paul and vowed to end his career. Tommy Fury and Jake Paul were supposed to fight in the back half of 2021. However, Fury dropped out after sustaining some injuries. Jake wasn’t keen to give him another chance. So, Fury has been throwing jabs ever since. Now, after beating a seasoned fighter with an impressive record in Bocianski, Fury has turned his sights on Jake once again, urging him to “get the contract signed” once and for all, before threatening to end his career. First, he urged Jake to put pen to paper. “Jake Paul, this should have been done a long time ago in December. If you want it, I’m here and I’m ready for you. I’ll cut you and chop you to bits just like I did there. Get the contract signed, you bum! Let’s get it done once and for all.” Then, he claimed fighters like Bocianski are on another level compared to Jake. “That lad in there would have killed Jake Paul. That lad is a true professional. He was cut to bits, but he was still in there giving me everything that he had. He’d slap Jake Paul and it’d be over.” Finally, he pledged to end Jake’s boxing career while throwing in some insults for good measure. “Jake Paul, I’m going to end your career. You’re a bum and you’re no good. Let’s get this fight done and get this settled.” It didn’t take long for Jake to respond, courtesy of renowned fighting journalist Ariel Helwani, who sought him out after the fight. “Congrats on beating a 10-1 fighter. But that stadium was empty,” scoffed Jake. He compared it to his own fights, which he claims generate a lot more hype. “When I fight, the stadium is full. When Tommy fights no one gives a f**k. And that’s in his home country. Let’s see how Anderson Silva’s event does.”

    Tommy Fury claims Jake Paul privately congratulated him after beating KSI Instagram: tommyfuryTommy Fury has revealed that Jake Paul privately reached out to congratulate him after beating KSI by unanimous decision. KSI and Tommy Fury finally jumped in the ring to settle their score on October 14. Heading into the bout, the YouTube star was aiming to do what his rival Jake Paul couldn’t and beat Fury to prove once and for all he’s the best influencer boxer. However, after months of anticipation, it all came down to six grueling rounds in the ring, where ultimately it was Fury who walked out on top, taking the win by a controversial majority decision — corrected to a unanimous decision after a judge submitted their score incorrectly. Following the fight, Tommy has now revealed that Jake Paul recently reached out to congratulate him on the win. Tommy Fury reveals Jake Paul congratulated him on KSI win In a recent interview with the Daily Mail, Tommy was asked if he’d had spoken with Jake Paul since touching gloves with KSI. To much surprise, the Love Island star revealed that ‘The Problem Child’ reached out personally to congratulate him on the win, where according to Fury he was being “extra nice.” “He messaged me the other day and said congratulations brother, you know, I could tell there’s something wrong with your hand all this sort of stuff, being extra nice,” Tommy revealed As far as a rematch goes, Fury made it clear that he’s now the king of crossover boxing, and chooses whoever he wants to fight next. “I am the head of this crossover thing now and it’s all right by saying because I’ve beat the two best men in it,” he said. “So whoever I want to fight next it’s up to me. I can pick and choose these guys.” Since the fight, KSI has sent an official appeal to the PBA, hoping to overturn the “outrageous” result in Fury’s favor. Until a decision is made, there’s no telling what’s next for influencers. But it’s certainly clear that fans want to finally see KSI and Jake Paul go blow-for-blow.

  • Tommy Fury claims Paul Bamba “never wanted” to fight and denies he missed weight – Dexerto

    Tommy Fury claims Paul Bamba “never wanted” to fight and denies he missed weight DAZNTommy Fury was set to take on Paul Bamba on the Deji vs. Floyd Mayweather undercard but the boxer claims that his opponent “never wanted to fight” after a weight-based spectacle got the fight called off. Tommy Fury has stayed in the headlines this year thanks to the constant controversy surrounding his fights. It started with a much-hyped match against Jake Paul that ultimately fell through despite weeks of both fighters trading barbs, and just when it looked like he was in the clear, his bout with Paul Bamba was also canceled. As fans started to press for deets on the situation, Tommy Fury released a video clarifying the situation and letting everyone know that the issues that killed the matchup had nothing to do with him and that he’ll still be taking a fight against a new opponent. Tommy Fury claims Paul Bamba never wanted to fight In the video, Fury briefly explains exactly what went wrong and how it was a contract discrepancy that ended up grinding things to a halt. “One contract was given to Paul Bamba and one contract was given to myself. The weight in my contract, I made yesterday,” he announced. “So, as far as I’m concerned, I’ve done my job.” He also noted that he thought Bamba was never committed to the fight but that it’s not going to stop him from putting on a show anyway. “Paul Bamba does not want to fight. He never did. I’m here in Dubai, I’ve got a new opponent, and I’m ready to go.” Of course, it wasn’t just the fans wondering what exactly caused the fight to get called off. Both Jake Paul & KSI (who are still beefing and seem likely to fight in 2023) used the opportunity to take some shots at the reality TV star’s back-to-back-to-back cancellations. As for who Fury will be fighting now that Bamba has dropped out? That turns out to be Rolly Lambert, a WBC & WBA champion with 17 fights to his name, so it’ll be interesting to see how Fury fares against a high-caliber opponent on short notice.

    Tommy Fury claims Jake Paul almost got fight postponed due to drug test Instagram/Jake PaulTommy Fury has hit back against Jake Paul’s claims that he almost didn’t agree to the match by pivoting the focus onto Paul’s alleged refusal to sign up for drug testing. Fury has hit back against Paul’s recent string of tweets and trash talk, firing back against the 27-year-old American boxer and calling him out for his supposed hesitancy in signing up for drug testing. On Instagram, Fury posted a short video, outlining that he allegedly waited “weeks and weeks for Jake Paul to sign up to the drug testing,” putting their “fight at risk” in the process. He then went on to add that, “we’ve agreed to a contract that we’re happy with so the fight is going ahead.” View this post on Instagram While the two were originally set to face off last year, Fury was forced to pull out of the match due to a last-minute injury. This then led to Paul’s rematch with former UFC champ Tyron Woodley. In the past week, back and forth online exchanges between Paul and Fury have been constant. Ahead of their fight, the two have been calling each other out and insinuating that the other is too scared to go ahead with their highly anticipated bout. Rumours of a rescheduled match between the two have been rampant for months, it was only earlier this week that the ball really got moving and it was set in stone and announced publicly. On June 22, Paul sent out a tweet to Fury, challenging him to the fight and giving him 24 hours to accept the offer. Tommy Fury, you pulled out last year.

The official press conference for the match will be held on Wednesday, June 29, with pre-sale tickets going up on the same day.

    Tommy Fury claims Jake Paul is dodging rematch talks despite promise YouTube: Frank Warren’s Queensberry PromotionsTommy Fury has claimed that Jake Paul has avoided discussions regarding their rematch following Fury’s triumph over the YouTube star earlier in 2023. After several failed attempts of getting the two in the ring, Tommy Fury and Jake Paul finally went toe-to-toe on February 26. It’s fair to say Tommy was Jake’s biggest challenge yet, stepping up from fighting retired MMA fighters to clashing with an 8-0 professional boxer. Meanwhile, Fury had the pressure of living up to his family name. After two years in the making, Jake was given his first loss at the hands of Tommy — although with a rematch clause in place, it was expected that the two to go blow for blow again in the summer. However, according to Tommy has been silent in rematch discussions. Tommy Fury claims Jake Paul is “silent” over rematch discussions In an interview with talkSPORT, the Love Island star was asked if there has been any communication with Jake since their fight in February. “Nope, not once,” Tommy revealed. “I think I saw a tweet the other day that he wants to run it back in a year’s time, but as far as I’m concerned we were meant to be running it back a few months later in a rematch.” He continued: “He was in the middle of the ring saying ‘I’m here for the rematch, that’ll be my next fight, then obviously, he’s gone away, watched it, and thought ‘maybe I’m not that good yet.’ So you know I haven’t heard nothing yet, he’s silent.” (Timestamp at 2:10) Jake is expected to touch gloves with UFC star Nate Diaz come August 5, with the ‘The Problem Child’ swearing he’ll “be done” with boxing if he loses. On the other hand, when asked who he wants to fight next, Tommy said he’s up for any challenge — including KSI, who he says has been “running his mouth” — and would be “easy money” if they stepped in the ring.

Tommy Fury confident he’d take down KSI in a bout Tommy Fury is a professional boxer and former Love Island competitor that’s made himself a big name in the scene. He went into his fight against Jake Paul in February 2023 with a flawless record and left with a flawless record. Ever since, fans have been waiting for him to step back into the ring. When asked about whether or not KSI would win against Fournier, he thought KSI had the edge despite Fournier being the better boxer on paper. Fury, however, didn’t share that same opinion when it came to whether or not KSI would be able to take him in the ring. “In my opinion, out of all this influencer boxing stuff, I beat the top of the chain. Jake Paul, I reckon, is the best out of all these. Listen, it is what it is: Easy money, baby.” Whether or not Tommy Fury decides to step in the ring with KSI remains to be seen.

The boxer got into a scuffle with Idris Virgo ringside, prompting security to pull the two apart. Fury also stepped onto the stage after KSI’s victory over Joe Fournier to further taunt the YouTuber turned big-name boxer to a fight.

    Tommy Fury camp unsure Jake Paul fight will ever happen after second cancelation Instagram: Jake Paul/Tommy FuryTommy Fury’s promoter, Frank Warren, is unsure his fight with Jake Paul will ever happen after it was canceled for a second time. Over the last few years, Jake Paul and Tommy Fury have repeatedly traded jabs online, with the pair taking shots at one another over everything from their boxing skills to their relationships. Their feud was supposed to come to a head at the end of 2021, as they were scheduled to finally fight. Though, a late injury to Tommy during training camp meant that he pulled out at the last minute. Their fight was then rearranged for August 6th, but with the Fury camp struggling to travel to America, Jake had to find a replacement. With the fight having been canceled for a second time, many fans are unsure if the pair will ever actually fight, and that’s a sentiment shared by Tommy’s own camp. Tommy Fury promoter unsure if Jake Paul fight will ever happen Speaking to the Daily Express about the fight being canceled, Fury’s promoter, Frank Warren, noted that they tried to get the travel issues sorted but it was simply too late in the day. As a result, he’s unsure if the pair will ever fight each other. “God knows. It was supposed to happen, it wasn’t Tommy’s fault, he went to the Airport, took all his team along, the tickets were bought, everything was good to go, but there was a problem with the ESTA,” Warren said. “I don’t know. If it ever gets resolved we’ll see what happens but Tommy will fight in the meantime while Jake sorts out his date with Rahman Jr on the 6.” The Queensberry Promotions president added that his side will “see what happens in the future,” but he also understands the frustrations on Jake’s side about a second cancelation. With so much interest in the pair’s feud, it would be a missed opportunity if they didn’t fight, so we’ll just have to wait and see what happens later down the line.

    Tommy Fury challenges Jake Paul to boxing fight after trash talk to Tyson Fury YouTube: Jake Paul / Instagram: @tommytntfuryYouTube star-turned-boxer Jake Paul is calling out his fellow fighters left and right — and he may have already gotten a bite, thanks to a timely response from up-and-coming boxer Tommy Fury. Jake Paul is certainly on a tear in the world of combat sports: After kicking off his boxing career on the undercard of the Logan Paul vs KSI fight in 2018, Jake has scored two victories since going pro, finishing off NBA star Nate Robinson and YouTuber AnEsonGib with clean victories. Now, he’s gearing up for his first bout with a “true” fighter, and is set to throw down with former UFC pro Ben Askren on April 17 — but he may already have his next fight lined up, if his latest interaction with Tommy Fury is anything to go by. On March 2, Paul called out a slew of high-profile fighters in a heated Instagram stories video, one of whom was two-time heavyweight boxing champ Tyson Fury. Tyson had actually challenged Paul to take on his younger brother, Tommy Fury, a professional British boxer and reality TV star. massive congratulations to @tommytntfury for smashing records on @btsport tommy slaughtered to competition over the weekend! including America’s biggest boxing star Canelo Alvarez. wow 😳 just wow 😳 @espn @dazngroup @SkySports ✅ @jakepaul where you at? pic.twitter.com/W5ITT5mdIR — TYSON FURY (@Tyson_Fury) March 1, 2021 Unfortunately, Paul didn’t have many kind words for this possibility, and urged Tommy to call him out himself. “I like Tyson Fury, but damn, if Tyson Fury took a sh**, it would be this little brother, literally just like this little kid,” the YouTuber joked. “My point is here, if you’re Tyson Fury’s little brother, if you wanna fight me, don’t let your big bro do sh** for you, log on to Instagram, Twitter, and call me out for your f***ing self bro.” Tommy has seemingly risen up to the challenge, as evidenced by a response video he tweeted out just a couple hours later. “So, I see somebody’s having a little bit of something to say,” Fury began. “Mr. Jake Paul — I don’t need anybody to do my dirty work. I’m calling you out myself, right now. You can fight me anytime, anyplace, anywhere. All you’ve got to do is get in touch.” Jake Paul has since responded to Tommy’s callout video with another video of his own. While he gave no official declaration of war, the YouTuber made sure to make fun of the British boxer, mocking his accent in a rendition of Tommy’s purported conversation with his older brother before going into a tirade about his opponent’s “action figure” esque appearance. https://twitter.com/TheBreadBatch/status/1367209049247412225 There’s no word on whether or not these two will actually throw down, but this would certainly be an interesting matchup for fans and critics, alike — especially considering how Paul’s upcoming fight with Askren goes.

    Tommy Fury camp responds to Jake Paul fight rumors of 2023 clash Instagram: Tommy Fury/YouTube: Jake PaulTommy Fury’s dad, John Fury, has given an update on the rumors about his son fighting Jake Paul in 2023, with a fight in the UK reportedly in the offing. A fight between Jake Paul and Tommy Fury has been brewing for years, and there has never been more interest than now, as the pair have had two fight dates canceled. Both proposed fight nights have been canceled due to problems on Tommy’s end of things, first with him suffering an injury and then with him being unable to get into the United States. And while Jake has claimed he’d rather fight someone else, he has spoken about the possibility of the pair fighting next year. The ‘Problem Child’ recently noted that there have been rumors of the two fighting in February, and he’s even willing to travel to the UK to make the fight happen at long last. Jake Paul vs Tommy Fury fight could happen in 2023 Well, Tommy’s Fury dad – John Fury – has given some insight into those rumors, suggesting that a fight between the two is “very much alive” at this point. Speaking to MirrorFighting about recent talks with Jake’s camp, Fury said: “Everything was very positive. We want this to happen so we will be sitting down to sort it and make sure a deal will be finalised this time. “The fight is very much alive. Take the Jake Paul it is what the fans want. Boxing is all about the entertainment business, and Tommy and Jake Paul is entertainment.” The long-time boxing coach said that the Fury’s will “accommodate” a fight with Jake next year as the pair want to finally settle things. As it stands, Jake is set to fight Anderson Silva at the end of October, and fighting again in February wouldn’t represent much turnaround time. On top of that, Jake has suggested that he’s preparing for a move into the world of MMA soon, which would put a delay on things. So, we’ll just have to wait and see what happens.

  • Tommy Fury camp reveals Jake Paul fight talks ahead of August 12 return – Dexerto

    Tommy Fury camp reveals Jake Paul fight talks ahead of August 12 return Instagram: Jake Paul/Tommy FuryTommy Fury’s promoter Frank Warren has revealed that the Brit is in talks over a few possible opponents and a fight with Jake Paul remains a “realistic” idea after some initial discussions. When Jake Paul last stepped into the boxing ring, he was supposed to be taking on long-time rival Tommy Fury. However, that fight didn’t happen as Tommy picked up a couple of injuries late into his training camp. The YouTuber-turned-boxed ultimately took on Tyron Woodley in place of Fury, and after dispatching of the former UFC Champion for a second time, revealed that he wasn’t in any rush to rearrange the bout with the reality TV star. Since then, there has been plenty of talk from both sides about the other, and with Jake yet to announce an opponent for his August return to the ring, there have been some that have urged him to fight Tommy this summer. While Anderson ‘The Spider’ Silva has seemingly become the frontrunner for that fight, Tommy’s interest hasn’t gone away, and the two have apparently had some talks about it. Speaking to IFL TV, Tommy’s promoter Frank Warren confirmed that the Brit will have a fight announced “soon” as he’s eager to fight again.”He wants to get out there he wants to be out in the next few months, so we will work something out,” Warren said. “I’d still like to do the fight with Jake, I’d still like to get that on. It is still realistic from our end, but it’s up to them at their end, but who knows? We’re not sitting around waiting for it to happen. There were a few things initially but we’ll see what happens.” Timestamp of 16:08 As noted, Jake has previously said that he was looking beyond rearranging the fight with Tommy and urged the Brit to pick up some wins before they’d do something again. It remains to be seen as to who he’ll fight come August 12, but something will have to be announced before long. It’s getting to that point where the hype should start building.

    Tommy Fury camp responds to Jake Paul fight demands as contract deadline looms Instagram: Jake Paul/Tommy FuryTommy Fury’s promoter, Frank Warren, has given an update on negotiations with Jake Paul after the YouTuber laid down a 7-day deadline to agree on a fight contract. The rival between Jake Paul and Tommy Fury is well documented at this point, as the YouTuber and British reality TV star have been locked in a war of words for a few years now. They’ve agreed to fight on two separate occasions, but both times, problems on Tommy’s end have prevented them from fighting. First, it was an injury that stopped the fight from happening, and then it was travel woes. However, the interest in a fight hasn’t gone away as the two have continued to trade words over social media. On November 15, Jake agreed to fight Tommy once again, stating that he’d travel to the UK to do it. However, he set the Fury camp a deadline of November 22nd to have a contract written up and ultimately signed off on. Frank Warren issues update on Jake Paul vs Tommy Fury fight date Well, Tommy’s promoter Frank Warren has now responded to those demands as the contract deadline looms over the potential clash. “It will probably be in late February or March,” the Queensberry Promotions boss told TalkSport. “The reason why it didn’t go [before], the contracts were all signed, because of the problems he had with the US immigration. “We are all past that now. Jake is up for coming over here and we have to get the deal finalized in the next week or so.” While Warren didn’t confirm if things will be sorted by the deadline that Jake has imposed, he clearly offered positive comments that indicate that everything will be ironed out and the two can finally square off. Jake has already given Manchester and London as potential locations for the fight, and both arenas have availability in the date range that Warren is aiming for. Though, only time will tell if it happens.

    Tommy Fury camp addresses claims Jake Paul fight is “dead in the water” Instagram: Jake Paul/Tommy FuryTommy Fury’s promoter, Frank Warren, has responded to claims that the Brit’s fight with Jake Paul is “dead in the water” following his issues with traveling to the United States. When Jake Paul confirmed that he’d be returning to the boxing ring in August, there were plenty of rumors about who his opponent might be. Though, fans only wanted him linked with one name – Tommy Fury. Despite Jake previously saying that he was leaving Tommy “in the dust” and looking at the different opponents, the longtime rivals agreed to fight each other on August 6th at Madison Square Garden. However, the fight appears to be on the ropes as Tommy is unable to get into the United States. Jake has claimed he is “moving on” and finding another opponent, but Fury’s camp is hopeful it’ll go ahead as planned. Tommy’s promoter, Frank Warren, was quizzed about the fight being “dead in the water” following his Queensberry Promotion’s July 2nd event in London. “If he (Tommy) doesn’t get to the embassy in time and doesn’t get his ESTA, which is what it’s all about, then it will be (dead in the water)” Warren told reporters after the fight card. “We hope that’s not going to be the case but understand from Jake’s position and his team, they can’t hang around and wait forever, they’ve got a date booked and they’re going to want somebody in there and in that opposite corner to sell tickets with. Let’s hope it’s going to be Tommy still.” Timestamp of 5:00 While Jake has claimed he’s looking for a different opponent, to this point, the fight with Tommy hasn’t been officially canceled and is still scheduled to go ahead.

  • Tommy Fury camp eyeing Logan Paul fight if he takes down Jake – Dexerto

    Tommy Fury camp eyeing Logan Paul fight if he takes down Jake IG: tommyfury / LoganPaulJohn Fury, father of legendary fighter Tyson Fury and the up-and-coming Tommy Fury, has said that Tommy could move on to fight Logan Paul if he beats Jake on December 18. YouTube boxing’s spiral into a major spectator sport may have been unexpected when it started way back in 2018 as a way for Joe Weller and KSI to settle their differences. However, multi-million dollar fights now see content creators battle it out in the ring in front of millions of viewers. The latest round of YouTube fights saw Logan Paul fight Floyd Mayweather, while younger brother Jake came out on top against ex-MMA star Tyron Woodley. Mike Tyson has even thrown his hat into the ring as a future participant but, for now, all eyes are on Jake Paul’s upcoming bout with Tommy Fury, a British professional boxer and younger brother of world heavyweight champion Tyson. The two will duke it out on December 18 but John Fury, former pro-boxer and father of Tyson and Tommy, is already envisaging a fight with Logan. Speaking in an interview with Rob Moore, Fury said: “If he’s on his game, Tommy, and he’s firing on all four cylinders. Easy night’s work, easy money, the winner goes on to bigger and better things. We’ll get the brother out the game as well, then we’ll start looking at conventional titles for him.” Essentially, should Tommy Fury get past Jake Paul, a fight with Logan will be the next logical step. After that, it’ll be back to the ‘conventional’ world of boxing for the young fighter. Timestamp: 1:25:45 The senior Fury finished: “A brother is gonna wanna redeem another brother, isn’t he? When he knocks Jake Paul out, the brother’s gonna wanna take his part ain’t he. But I don’t think so because the hiding Tommy’s gonna give Jake Paul, the other brother won’t be interested either.” While Tommy is favorite with most bookies, Jake has certainly defied the odds in previous fights. KSI, former opponent of Logan, suggested that Jake’s ability to handle the bigger occasion will see him through. Only time will tell.

  • Tommy Fury calls out Jake Paul to honor handshake agreement over fight winnings – Dexerto

    Tommy Fury calls out Jake Paul to honor handshake agreement over fight winnings Instagram: tommyfuryDays after his win over Jake Paul and Tommy Fury is now calling out the former YouTube star to honor a pre-fight agreement in which the stakes were raised. After years of squabbling online, Paul and Fury finally met in the ring on February 26. While some rounds were closer than others, and one judge even saw it in favor of Paul, Fury ultimately had his hand raised after the pair went the distance. Recording his first loss in the sport, Paul has since been plenty vocal on social media, seeking out an immediate rematch while making future opponents like KSI wait in the wings. However, despite his presence online since the fight, Paul has yet to address one particular talking point. In a pre-fight press conference, the younger Paul brother offered a unique wager. Should he win the bout, he’d take “everything” that he was paying Fury for the bout. However, if Fury was to win, he offered to pay “double what [he’s] paying already.” Confident in his abilities, Fury accepted the deal without hesitation. However, while he agreed on stage, he seemingly neglected to sign proper documentation locking the deal in. The two merely shook hands on stage to seemingly make it official. Yet it appears the agreement hasn’t yet been acknowledged after the fact. “At the end of the day, we were live on television and we shook hands, take that as how you want to take it,” Fury said a few days removed from the fight on Good Morning Britain. “We’re old-fashioned guys, so a handshake means everything to us, but let’s see if he honors it or not. A handshake is as good as a contract to us.” While a full amount is unclear, given sponsors and separate bonuses factor into the equation, reports claim Fury was guaranteed $2 million USD for his base salary. For winning the fight, an extra $1 million was added on. If Paul holds up his side of this bonus wager, that could see another $3 million going the way of Fury. But of course, there’s no telling if the internet celeb is willing to fork over the rest of the cash just yet.

    Tommy Fury camp address Jake Paul deadline with fight in doubt Instagram: Jake Paul/Tommy FuryTommy Fury’s promoter, Frank Warren, has responded to Jake Paul’s July 6th deadline to get his travel issues sorted, with the Fury camp being hopeful that the fight will go ahead. After years of trash-talking each other online, a fight between Jake Paul and Tommy Fury has been a long time coming. It was meant to happen at the end of 2021, but Fury pulled out at the last minute due to injuries. Even though Jake stated that he was going to make Tommy work for a rescheduled fight, fans clamored for the pair to agree to fight sooner rather than later – with many hoping the Fury team would line up opposite Jake this summer. While fans got their wish, and the pair agreed to fight come August 6th, those plans have been turned on their head due to Tommy’s issues with traveling to the United States. And as he’s got a bit AWOL since being refused entry, Jake has started eyeing up possible replacements. Even though Jake claims he has three opponents waiting as replacements, the Fury camp is hopeful that Tommy will be lacing up his gloves and fighting at Madison Square Garden in August. “It hasn’t. It’s still to be sorted out and we’re working on trying to get it done,” Tommy’s promoter, Frank Warren, told SecondsOut when asked about his visa situation and the deadline set by Jake to have things resolved. “He’s got a show to run, he’s a promoter as well as a fighter and he wants to get his show on and I understand where he’s coming from. Jake and his team have been brilliant to work with, but unfortunately we’re in this position, which is no one’s fault, Tommy went to the airport to travel, he didn’t go to be turned back.” Timestamp of 1:44 Warren also noted that “you can’t just walk into an embassy” to get a visa sorted, but “hopefully” Tommy will get it ironed out before long. “At the moment, we’re in the position we’re in and hopefully, it will get resolved because if it doesn’t then we move on and maybe we can revisit it again in the autumn,” he said about potentially rescheduling the fight again. It remains to be seen if the highly-anticipated fight will go ahead, or if Jake will fight one of his replacements – which he’s already teased could be Tyron Woodley, once again.

The trash talk between Jake Paul and Tommy Fury has been ongoing for a few years now, as the rivals have traded blows on social media, in press conferences, and in face-to-faces. As they’ve been gearing up to fight, nothing is seemingly off the table, as they’ve both dug into each other’s backgrounds to deliver some fiery words.

Tommy Fury downplays Jake Paul’s trash talk about new baby Well, less than two weeks out from their long-awaited fight, Tommy has now hit back at that comment, saying “nothing can save” Jake once they finally meet. The younger Fury brother was quizzed about the comment as he spoke to BT Sport on February 15, and he quickly brushed it off. “Yeah, a comment, that’s it. Jake lives in this world of social media where he has most of his wars and conversations over the internet,” Tommy said. “I live in a world where I don’t talk, I just use my fists for a conversation if I don’t like somebody. This is what he is. I mean, I don’t know what he’s trying to do, to be fair, leaving a comment on the internet thinking that’s going to do anything to me. He can leave as many comments as he wants on my pictures, nothing can save him, and no comments will be saving him on the 26th.” Jake has slowed his trash talk a bit recently, stating that he has “nothing” more to say about his rivalry with Tommy. The pair will meet on February 26 to settle their beef once and for all, and the world will be watching.

On October 14, the months of trash talk finally came to an end as Logan Paul, Dillon Danis, KSI, and Tommy Fury all stepped into the ring to face off in their respective boxing matches. It was a mixed night for the Prime Hydration founders as Logan defeated Dillon, but KSI lost a unanimous decision to Tommy. Many, including DAZN CEO Joe Markowski, have said that the YouTuber was “robbed” and want to see him face off against the reality TV star in a rematch before long. Tommy had suggested that he was moving on from influencer boxing, having ended it by beating both KSI and Jake Paul. However, he’s not ruled out a rematch with his fellow Brit. Tommy Fury refuses to rule out KSI rematch The Love Island runner-up appeared on Good Morning Britain on October 17 to discuss the fight and was quick to suggest that there wouldn’t be a rematch. However, it didn’t take long for him to change his stance. “I’m enjoying some family time now. In about a month’s time, me and my team are going to get round a table and decide which is the best route to take next. I don’t know, we’re gonna see. But that was a horrible fight to be a part of,” Tommy said when asked if there would, in fact, be a rematch. “He didn’t wanna fight, he didn’t want to stand there and give the fans a good fight. He just wanted to make it awkward, look horrible and run around the ring for six rounds. It’s very irritating for someone like me who wanted to get in there and have a proper fight.” Timestamp of 3:05 KSI hasn’t called for a rematch yet, only saying that he felt like he won after watching it back and was “robbed”. He had also suggested that, unless Jake Paul wanted to actually fight him, he would retire after facing Tommy. However, this is the fight game after all and anything can happen – especially after you apparently sell over 1 million pay-per-views. So, we’ll have to keep an eye on things and see if the two Brits will square off again.

  • Tommy Fury admits Jake Paul fight is only happening because of money – Dexerto

    Tommy Fury admits Jake Paul fight is only happening because of money YouTube: Rob MooreTommy Fury has admitted he’s only fighting Jake Paul for the money, as the longtime rivals are set to clash at the end of February. Jake Paul and Tommy Fury have been trying to make a fight happen for a few years now, with the longtime rivals having agreed to fight twice before. Both times, the fights were called off due to issues on Tommy’s end, and fans questioned if the pair would ever settle their beef inside the ring. There are reports that they’ll finally meet in the ring in late February, with a fight expected to take place in Saudi Arabia. While there will certainly be bragging rights on the line, Tommy has said he’s only in it for the money. Tommy Fury says Jake Paul fight is only happening for the money The younger Fury brother appeared on The Disruptors podcast to talk about his and Jake’s rivalry, noting that the YouTuber-turned-boxer doesn’t really get under his skin. “Before Jake Paul and the YouTube boxing stuff start, I was fighting legitimate people, earning my stripes,” Fury said. “But if you want to slap millions of pounds in front of my face and ask me to fight Jake Paul, why am I not going to do that? I’ve got a family to feed now. “The reason why I’m taking the Jake Paul fight is that it’s financially good,” Tommy added, noting that Jake doesn’t really get underneath his skin. “I know what he’s doing, he’s a whizz on social media. He’s made a living being an idiot, arrogant, and calling people out for what it is. All I see with Jake Paul is a business.” Timestamp of 14:50 The youngest Fury added that he still has his eyes on fighting those more ‘legitimate’ fighters after he and Jake have clashed, but it’s ultimately a “no brainer” to make the money. As noted the pair are seemingly going to fight towards the end of February, with it being shifted to February 26 as Tommy and his partner Molly-Mae are having a baby.

  • Tommy Fury accepts Jake Paul boxing match after 24 hour warning – Dexerto

    Tommy Fury accepts Jake Paul boxing match after 24 hour warning Instagram: Jake Paul, Tommy FryYouTube boxer Jake Paul issued a challenge to Tommy Fury, giving the Love Island star 24 hours to finally agree to a boxing match… and it looks like the Brit was up to the task. Jake Paul is gearing up for his next fight this August at Madison Square Garden, where he’ll step in the ring on the same card as female boxing legend Amanda Serrano. However, his opponent still has yet to be determined after months of preparation… and time is counting down fast. In the weeks leading up to his match, ‘The Problem Child’ has been calling out huge names in the combat sports space — most recently, the UFC’s Nate Diaz, who has asked to be released from his contract for a chance at boxing Paul. In between these talks, though, have been rumors that Paul will face off against Tommy Fury. The two were originally slated to face off last year, but Fury pulled out of the bout last-minute due to an injury, prompting Jake to take on former UFC champ Tyron Woodley for a rematch. Now, though, a bout with Tommy is looking far more likely. Paul challenged Fury in a pointed tweet on June 22 — a little over a month from his fight date — giving the British boxing star 24 hours to accept his offer. “Tommy Fury, you pulled out last year,” he wrote. “Then you agree to fight me now, but your dad is trying to pull you out again?” “We’ve given you everything you asked for,” he continued. “$2M purse, VADA testing, Tampons. You have 24 hours to clear this up or I will never give you this opportunity again.” Tommy Fury, you pulled out last year. Then you agree to fight me now but your dad is trying to pull you out again? We’ve given you everything you asked for $2M purse ✅ VADA testing ✅ Tampon’s ✅You have 24 hours 2 clear this up or I will never give u this opportunity again — Jake Paul (@jakepaul) June 22, 2022 Paul was referencing recent statements made by Tommy’s father, John Fury, who recently decried any talks of a fight between Paul and his son, calling the ordeal a “pile of sh*t.” That doesn’t have fans convinced, though, as promoter Eddie Hearn claimed in a June interview that he’d heard rumors of a Jake vs Fury fight happening “soon.” That’s not all; Paul also uploaded a video calling out Tommy, claiming the British fighter wouldn’t take the bout because John Fury couldn’t be there with him in the States to coach him due to his criminal record. Tommy Fury and boxers like him are the reason this sport started to die. Tommy, you have 24 hours to fix this. pic.twitter.com/JZFh6VAiGo — Jake Paul (@jakepaul) June 22, 2022 However, thirty minutes prior to Paul’s oddly-timed video, Fury shot back with a definite reply: “See you August 6th, pal.” Fury also hit back at Paul’s callout video, confirming that their bout is on for the 6 and poking fun at Paul’s comments about agreeing to drug testing. “Forget a team or any other bullsh*t,” he hit back. “I don’t need anybody to help me lay you flat on that canvas. Oh, and thanks for finally signing the drug testing… you only agreed to it when you realized the fight was at risk – who needs who?” It looks like this highly-anticipated bout is finally on, giving fans a rush of excitement as Paul takes on an opponent many have been calling for since his boxing debut back in 2018.

  • Tommy Fury accuses Jake Paul of “rigging” past fights ahead of December bout – Dexerto

    Tommy Fury accuses Jake Paul of “rigging” past fights ahead of December bout YouTube: Jake Paul / Amanda Westcott, SHOWTIMEYouTube star Jake Paul will be facing off against UK pro boxer Tommy Fury on December 18 — but Fury claims this will be his opponent’s first “non-rigged” bout thus far. Jake Paul has risen from a career as a full-time influencer to a professional boxer with a 4-0 record. Taking out the likes of former Olympic mixed martial artists and UFC champions, Paul now has his sights set on Tommy Fury. Fury, a professional boxer from the United Kingdom, also has his fair share of experience in the limelight, having been a reality TV star on Love Island — but he claims all his fights have been legitimate, as opposed to Paul’s bouts against retired athletes and other YouTubers. Fury called out Paul during a press conference on November 24, who tuned into the conference via Zoom floating in a Puerto Rico swimming pool, wearing sunglasses and fruit-emblazoned hat. Pucker up Timmy, it’s time to kiss ur last name and ur family’s boxing legacy goodbye. DEC 18th Im changing this wankers name to Tommy Fumbles and celebrating with Tom Brady. Tickets on sale November 10th!#PaulFury One Will Fall. @MostVpromotions @showtimeboxing @amaliearena pic.twitter.com/IFStMpJul5 — Jake Paul (@jakepaul) October 29, 2021 Tommy Fury slams Jake Paul over “rigged” boxing matches “When his fights aren’t rigged, he can’t win,” Tommy said. “Let’s be truthful here. When his fights are not rigged, and they’re not set up, he loses. And let’s be honest: I’m not a UFC fighter. I’m not a YouTuber, and I’m not a basketball player, who else you fought, yeah?” “I’ve been doing this my whole life. Come December 18, you’re gonna have a funny look at the team around you, because they’ve got you into a world of trouble, my friend.” (Topic begins at 18:20) Fury made mention of Paul’s previous bouts against YouTuber AnEsonGib and former NBA player Nate Robinson, as well as his latest fight against former five-time UFC champ Tyron Woodley — a match that Paul won by split-decision. Paul didn’t seem fazed by Tommy’s comments, though, and had a few harsh back-and-forths with Tommy’s father, John Fury, who had several insults to sling along the way. While Pauls prior bouts haven’t been confirmed as “rigged,” Floyd Mayweather, who notably faced off against Logan Paul in a June exhibition match, suggested their fight wasn’t the real deal: “If it was a real fight, it would’ve been a blowout in the first round.” Jake Paul vs Tommy Fury will kick off on December 18 in Tampa, Florida.

    TommInnit says “serious” incident almost made him quit YouTube YouTube: tommyinnitMinecraft star TommyInnit opened up about a “serious” incident that almost drove him to quit his career on YouTube — and revealed why he chose to stay. TommyInnit is a massively popular Minecraft creator who boasts over 13 million subscribers on his main YouTube channel, on top of his staggering 7 million followers on Twitch. The young influencer has risen to the upper echelon of internet stardom… but he almost threw it all away after a disturbing incident, which he detailed in a March 6 YouTube video titled, ‘I Almost Quit Forever.’ In his video, Tommy claimed that a “serious” ordeal happened just before his famous vlog with KSI back in 2021 that prompted Dream to give him a phone call. TommyInnit says Dream warned him about “serious” incident During the conversation, Tommy claims that Dream warned him people were “coming for” him, and that he should “lock [his] windows, shut [his] doors, and prepare for the worst.” “I didn’t know what he meant,” Tommy admitted. “I was f*cking freaked out. He told me that people were coming for me — this isn’t a joke — and that I’d have to f*cking prepare.” “I think that might have been the most scared I’ve ever been.” He also claimed that Dream called his parents to explain the situation, who were equally as frightened as he was. “They understood, but they couldn’t even lie to me — they were pretty f*cking scared, too. I wasn’t even 18, and this sh*t was happening.” “After a few hours, I left our call, and went to bed… and that is when they arrived at my house.” (Topic begins at 2:20) TommyInnit announces live tour in UK for June 2023 Tommy didn’t delve any further into the incident, saying that legally, he isn’t allowed to speak about it online. However, he did announce a forthcoming tour across the UK, where he claims he’ll open up about that ordeal and even more behind-the-scenes details for fans in-person. The tour starts in June and will go throughout that whole month. Tommy claims that, if tickets sell well, he hopes to take his live tour worldwide to meet fans in America, Australia, and more countries. This is just the latest Minecraft star to tell all following our interview with Dream, who opened up about the effect his viral face reveal had on his personal and professional life.

  • Tommy and Tyson Fury recruit Shaquille O’Neal to get Jake Paul fight – Dexerto

    Tommy and Tyson Fury recruit Shaquille O’Neal to get Jake Paul fight Instagram: gypsyking101/ Jake PaulBoxing brothers Tommy and Tyson Fury have recruited NBA legend Shaquille O’Neil to help them persuade Jake Paul to fight, and they’ve posted a bizarre callout. Jake Paul may have successfully knocked out Ben Askren in the first round in April, but the Fury family and their friends are coming after him, further escalating the war of words already happening between the 22-year-old British fighter and the YouTuber turned boxer. Following Jake’s win against Askren, Tommy tweeted “I’m ready to give the people what they want,” tagging Paul, who appeared to accept the offer later on but only on the condition that Tyson also joined the boxing card. However, Tommy and Tyson Fury have taken their fighting talk one step further. On May 20, boxing legend Tyson Fury posted a video to his Instagram surrounded by his family and friends, challenging YouTuber Jake Paul to “step up and fight a REAL boxer.” The video begins with Tyson Fury’s son Prince shouting “Jakey Jakey where are ya? My uncle’s looking for ya,” Before Tommy threatens, “This boxing sh*t, it’s in my blood. I don’t play boxing.” The camera then turns to none other than four-time NBA champion Shaquille O’Neal who says “If you see this face, you already know what it is. Don’t matter the amount, don’t be scared” while holding up the universal hand gesture for money. View this post on Instagram Finally, Tyson Fury himself tells the Paul brothers where they stand: “So Jake, Logan, Anyone else who wants to back these pussies, please hit us up, I’m taking all bets for any amount of money. As much as they want. Any time, any place, anywhere, let us know. Tommy’s knocking Jake the f*ck out.” However, Tommy is not the only one calling for a shot at fighting Jake Paul; Evander Holyfield has claimed he’ll do it for enough money, popular rapper The Game recently tweeted his offer, and the YouTuber seems to have accepted an offer from UFC Welterweight champion Kamaru Usman. But with Jake having just locked down a deal with Showtime Sports for multiple future fights, it looks like Tommy has a good chance at getting in the ring.

  • Tom Segura shows off new Your Mom’s House studio for 2 Bears, 1 Cave podcast – Dexerto

    Tom Segura shows off new Your Mom’s House studio for 2 Bears, 1 Cave podcast Your Mom’s House YouTubeYour Mom’s House Studios co-founder Tom Segura toured the new 2 Bears, 1 Cave studio with fellow comedian and friend Bert Kreischer for the next era of the popular show. YMH Studios got a major upgrade for Episode 119 and beyond of 2 Bears, 1 Cave that makes Kreischer’s home setup looks “pedestrian,” in his words. Both show hosts were blown away by the lavish makeover for the new home of their hit podcast: “This is like — Dad went away and he gave us his credit card,” Kreischer joked. “And we told our friends, ‘Hey if you want something from the gas station, I’ll pay for it.’ and then we’re swiping things but then we feel like ‘sh*t, he’s gonna notice.’” View this post on Instagram You can see where Kreischer is coming from seeing as their last studio setup didn’t have nearly as many bells and whistles they have now. The new room comes with a couple of different mini-bars with a lot more TVs than before, a classy recording space for the Your Moms House pod, and a more modern open setup for the 2 Bears, 1 Cave recordings. Read More: How to get verified on Instagram – It didn’t take long for the pair to break in the new studio. Just seconds into recording the latest 2 Bears, 1 Cave episode, Kreischer accidentally did a spit take on his side of the aisle to give the setup a more personable feel. Since launching their show in 2019, it’s been another successful project from Segura and Christina Pazsitzky’s YMH Studios. 2 Bears, 1 Cave is one of the top comedy shows on both Spotify and Apple and shows no sign of slowing down now that the duo of Kreischer and Segura are back on the mics.

  • Tom Segura details ‘crazy’ story of tour bus driver being arrested for drug trafficking – Dexerto

    Tom Segura details ‘crazy’ story of tour bus driver being arrested for drug trafficking YouTube: 2 Bears 1 CaveTom Segura broke down how his tour bus driver was involved in an accidental drug trafficking arrest while attempting to cross international borders. The life of a stand-up comedian is already chaotic enough at the level of success that Tom Segura has achieved. Living a tour-heavy life means being on the move all the time, which is a feat that’s made harder when your bus driver gets arrested for trafficking drugs across international lines. In an episode of his podcast 2 Bears 1 Cave, Segura explained to his cohost and fellow superstar comedian Bert Kreisher how the situation developed and resolved in an equally strange fashion. Tom Segura’s strange story about accidentally getting his bus driver arrested The ‘Ball Hog’ storyteller kicked things off by saying he was already having a bad night at a different show when he learned that his driver had been cuffed while attempting to cross into Canada. According to Segura, his tour manager was already in a frenzy over audio issues when the news came in, so when they stepped away to discuss the situation, he was completely stunned by the new disruption. “I think it’s going to be about the staff…he goes ‘come with me’ and I’m like ‘this is a pretty serious talk about sound.’” Of course, it wasn’t about sound at all. It was about their driver being detained by border police after they came onto the bus and found an abundance of weed inside the comedian’s room. Segura eventually got to speak with the driver who told him that the check had gone fine until they entered the back room and found the still-packaged marijuana. After hearing that, the comedian immediately began to put the pieces together. “Right away it hits me, I go, it’s gotta be from a gift…” Just as things seemed like they were headed for the worst possible ending though, the arresting officer pulled a huge curveball. “Whose bus did you say this is?” he asked. When the driver admitted it was Segura’s bus, the entire situation deflated in a heartbeat. It turns out he was a huge fan. The bus driver was ultimately uncuffed and let free as long as he promised that he would “Tell Tom to smoke all this sh*t” if he ever wanted to cross the border. However, after such a close call, the crew decided to throw it all out just to keep their show on the road.

  • Tom Holland loses bet to YouTubers McFly & Carlito at Uncharted premiere and it’s gone viral – Dexerto

    Tom Holland loses bet to YouTubers McFly & Carlito at Uncharted premiere and it’s gone viral Flickr: Gage Skidmore/YouTube: McFly & CarlitoSpider-Man star Tom Holland lost a bet to French YouTubers McFly and Carlito, and it’s safe to say that the internet has been wowed by the viral clip from the Uncharted premiere. For years, there had been rumors that a movie based on the Uncharted franchise would be put into production and given the big-screen treatment. Though, it took until recently for that to be a reality. The Uncharted movie, which stars Tom Holland and Mark Wahlberg, is starting to premiere around the globe – which means the actors are in for a bit of a media blitz, promoting the new franchise. In the case of Holland, the Spider-Man star was in Paris for the movie’s showing at the Grand Rex cinema, when he surprised the audience by bringing along popular YouTuber’s McFly and Carlito to pay up on a bet. During the screening in Paris, the 25-year-old was accompanied by the YouTube stars when he revealed to the audience that he was there to pay up on a bet he’d made with them. His consequence wasn’t anything particularly embarrassing, but he did have to dap the pair up at his own screening. “Listen, I lost a bet to McFly and Carlito. Ok, so listen: McFly and Carlito are the most extraordinary people I’ve ever met in my life,” Tom started as the audience roared in their approval. “I had a wonderful time along their side and I’m not sure I’ll ever be able to live the experience down. It was a magical moment. Long lives to the both of you two, thank you so much for embarrassing me in front of all you wonderful people.” Comment ça tom hollande et mcfly et carlito ?? pic.twitter.com/dOq1vQPsDY — syl🦦 (@syylllia) February 12, 2022 As of writing, there hasn’t been a video from the YouTubers to provide a bit of backstory to their bet, but we’d guess that their 7 million subscribers will see it hit their sub box before long. Until then, fans will keep replaying the video from the premier as it continues to rack up views across social media at a rapid pace.

  • Poker legend Tom Dwan wins the biggest hand ever televised with $3.1 million pot – Dexerto

    Poker legend Tom Dwan wins the biggest hand ever televised with $3.1 million pot YouTube: Hustler Casino LiveHustler Casino’s broadcast of a poker game with a $1 million buy-in saw poker pros Tom Dwan and Wesley Fei face off for a historic $3.1 million pot, the biggest in televised poker’s history. Hustler Casino regularly broadcasts games between the biggest names in poker that usually are played for absurd amounts of money. Those unfamiliar with poker still might recognize LA’s Hustler Casino for hosting Ludwig’s $1m YouTube poker tournament. The Casino is known for hosting $1 million buy-in games, where each player comes to the table ready to put their own million dollars on the line, up to $7 million total. One such game during Hustler Casino’s Live May 31 broadcast featured a hand where Tom Dwan faced Wesley Fei for the biggest pot in the history of televised poker, $3.1 million. Tom Dwan calls Wesley Fei’s bluff for a $3.1 million dollar pot The historic hand starts out with LSG Hank raising $7000 before Wesley raises $30,000, followed by another raise of $100,000 by Tom Dwan. This causes LSG Hank to fold, but Wesley keeps pushing with a $275,000 raise which Tom Dwan calls. The players finally enter the flop phase of the game with an already massive $562,000 pot waiting for the winner. Wesley bets another $125,000 despite only having an ace high, a bluff that Tom calls, adding another $300k to the pot, before ‘the turn’ starts. Wesley still with only an ace high bets $350k, likely trying to scare off Tom but he checks after a while of consideration. Timestamp of 6:12:20 through to 6:25:50 Wesley resorts to calling an ‘all-in’ during the river, Tom Dwan proceeds to call with $786,000, bringing the total pot up to $3.1 million. The showdown reveals that Tom was sitting on a pair of queens the entire game and Wesley loses the hand as he still only had the ace high. Hustler Casino Live’s Twitter proceeded to report on the game by stating: “$3.1 MILLION POT!! THE BIGGEST POT IN THE HISTORY OF TELEVISED POKER!!” Viewers had heaps of praise for both of the players for their nerves of steel considering the amount of money on the table. “Tom plays the player, not the card. In the end, no one in the world can bluff Tom the way he did with other players. Great play and great win,” one viewer said, summing things up. One has to wonder, how long will the record stand, funnily enough just four hours after the record hand, the second biggest US televised poker pot in history was played at the same table between LSG Hank and Wesley Fei.

  • Tom Holland is going viral on TikTok after joining app for Spider-Man tour – Dexerto

    Tom Holland is going viral on TikTok after joining app for Spider-Man tour Wikimedia Commons / TikTokTom Holland has swung onto a new platform as the Spider-Man star just joined TikTok with millions of avid fans already flocking to his official account. One of the most popular celebrities in the world today is now on TikTok. Amidst the success of Spider-Man No Way Home, the actor behind Marvel’s fan-favorite web-slinger has joined the video-sharing app. ‘TomHollandMedia’ launched on December 30 before shooting out a handful of promo vids for the latest flick alongside a number of red-carpet interview snippets. With a verified checkmark added in just a matter of hours, it didn’t take long for Holland’s brand new account to explode. On top of his Instagram and Twitter accounts, TikTok now marks his third active platform. Though there’s no indication it’s actually the real him just yet. Despite following 13 accounts and already having a simple biography, Holland’s TikTok account appears to be the next step in a viral marketing campaign for the latest Spider-Man movie. TikTok is one of many media giants investing in No Way Home’s hefty $200+ million promotion. Outside of video advertisements, the social platform has crafted multiple accounts to push the movie in different ways. From a Daily Bugle account to an official No Way Home account, and now, Holland’s own TikTok profile could be the final step. There’s no telling right now if the actor himself has any control over the output, nor if it will continue to be used after the film’s cinema run comes to an end. With just shy of three million followers overnight, however, it’s already one of the fastest-growing accounts on the platform. We’ll just have to keep our eyes peeled over the coming days for any real TikTok interactions from Holland directly.

  • TikTok responds to reports that toddlers are using the app – Dexerto

    TikTok responds to reports that toddlers are using the app Unsplash: McKaela TaylorTikTok has responded after an Ofcom report revealed that 16% percent of British children aged 3-4 used the app in 2021, despite the app being strictly 13+. In recent years, TikTok has managed to absolutely dominate the world of social media, becoming one of the most used apps and having an extraordinary influence on media and popular culture. However, the platform has been heavily criticized on multiple occasions as a result of the huge number of dangerous trends that populate the app, with parents concerned about the risk that some of the content may pose to their children. Now, the UK’s communications regulator Ofcom has released a report which revealed that British children as young as three are using the app, prompting even greater concern about child safety on the platform. In the ‘Children and parents: media use and attitudes report’ released on March 30, Ofcom claimed that “half of children aged 3-17 used TikTok in 2021,” adding that “use ranged from less than a fifth of 3-4s (16%), to half of 8-11s (51%), to three-quarters of 16-17s (74%).” These figures could include parents or older figures showing children videos on the app, and doesn’t necessarily mean that they have their own account, as parents answered on behalf of the 3-7-year-olds as part of this study. They also revealed, “18% of all 3-17-year-olds uploaded videos on TikTok, compared to 13% on YouTube, and 11% on both Instagram and Snapchat.” Read More: What is the ‘sidewalk rule’ on TikTok? – According to the BBC, a spokesperson for TikTok said: “We have processes in place to enforce our minimum-age requirements, both at the point of sign-up and through the continuous proactive removal of suspected under-age accounts from the platform. “Nothing is more important to us than the safety of our community, especially young people,” they added. In recent months, the platform has been cracking down on the presence of dangerous trends on the app, including the introduction of new guidelines that they revealed back in February. They explained that they are, “strengthening our dangerous acts and challenges policy,” “broadening our approach to eating disorders,” and “adding clarity on the types of hateful ideologies prohibited on our platform.” Although the study was conducted on children from the UK, the concern about children under the age of thirteen accessing TikTok extends globally, and could even lead to the app introducing an even stricter sign-up process in the future. Kanye West famously campaigned for his daughter to be taken off TikTok, after his estranged wife Kim Kardashian posted videos with her on their account.

    Tom Cruise deepfake TikTok goes viral with most convincing video yet TikTok: deeptomcruiseA TikTok account dedicated to deepfake videos of superstar actor Tom Cruise has gone viral once again with another shockingly realistic video. Deepfakes, the digital recreation of people’s faces and speech, have gotten scarily good over the last few years. One TikToker has gone viral tons of times with his deepfake videos of one of the most famous American movie stars of all time, Tom Cruise. Chris Ume, a VFX and A.I. artist, has an entire TikTok dedicated to making fake videos of Tom Cruise. His videos are so realistic that it even tricked Justin Bieber into believing it was actually Cruise himself. Now, the deepfaker has gone viral once again with maybe their most convincing video to date. Tom Cruise deepfake looks shockingly real The account, deeptomcruise, has over 3.4 million followers. In a video posted on April 4, which now has over 10 million viewers, the fake Tom Cruise is at it again, this time with a special guest. Fake-Cruise was joined by comedy actor Keegan Michael-Key at the AFI awards show. The video kicks off with Cruise launching himself over Key and saying, “Just wanted to jump in and wish you luck buddy. Congrats on the AFI awards. Congrats on life, congrats on the look, work on the humor a bit.” Chris Ume, pretending to be the famous actor, belts out a very Cruiseian laugh that is near indistinguishable from the actual Cruise, and also mimicked Tom’s hand genstures. The comment section was filled with users who were in complete shock. One said, “I’m convinced it’s actually Tom Cruise.” Read More: What does ASL mean on TikTok? – The video caught so much steam it actually got “Tom Cruise” trending on Twitter.

  • Toddler goes viral for saving baby brother from choking – Dexerto

    Toddler goes viral for saving baby brother from choking TikTok: gracewatkins5448A toddler is taking over TikTok thanks to his quick thinking after saving his baby brother from potentially choking on a small object he had in his mouth. TikTok is the number one home for viral content. Why, just a few days ago, a fan at a Harry Styles concert took over the app after recording the musician performing her baby’s gender reveal on stage. The latest clip taking over TikTok is also baby-themed — although things definitely could have turned out badly, if not for one kiddo’s quick thinking. On March 5, single mom Grace Watkins posted a video of herself hanging out with her two sons, three-year-old Silas and 13-year-old Wilder. Toddler takes over TikTok after saving baby brother from choking In the clip, Silas and his mom can be seen playing around with some hula hoops while baby Wilder toddles onto the scene — but Silas notices something in his little brother’s mouth and instantly springs into action. Silas puts down the hoop and grabs his bro’s head, quickly retrieving the object in his mouth before turning and showing it to his mom. The clip has garnered over 19 million views in just three days, leaving commenters both shocked and impressed by little Silas’s maternal instincts. “He was definitely a mother of seven in his previous life,” one user joked. “Absolutely extraordinary,” another said. “His attention, maturity, understanding of dangers and responsibility. That is an incredibly emotionally advanced little boy.” “Wow he had that mom grip, his whole demeanor changed. Good job buddy!” yet another commented. However, not everyone was amused by the clip, with one commenter accusing Watkins of being a negligent parent. She hit back at the critic in a follow-up video explaining the situation. “If I brought to attention every single time my baby put something in his mouth — which happens all the time — and I made it such a moment, it would induce and instill fear that we don’t need,” she said. “My oldest, clearly, is very, very bright,” she continued. “Yes, I’m going to utilize him if I can. Why not have two conscious minds protecting this beautiful baby?” Luckily, Watkins’ situation turned out positively — unlike another parent, who had the police called on them after recording themselves bundling their bundle of joy in saran wrap.

    Toddler shows “no remorse” after opening every Christmas gift in the middle of the night X/Twitter: Scott_ThoughtA toddler woke up in the middle of Christmas night and opened all the presents regardless of who they were for. Scott Reintgen and his wife Katie came down on Christmas morning to find unwrapped toys and wrapping paper spread around the tree. Sharing three children, it had to have been one of them who mischievously opened everyone’s gifts. Eventually, the couple found out it was their three-year-old toddler. Luckily, Katie was able to rewrap the gifts before everyone woke up — but why did he do it? Toddler pleads his innocence to dad after opening every Christmas gift Though the Reintgen’s toddler opened everyone’s Christmas gifts at 3:00 AM on Christmas morning, his mom Katie said he showed “no remorse.” However, the toddler’s dad, Scott, took to X/Twitter to share the boy’s innocent reasoning, saying he “wanted to open all the presents so no one was confused and they all knew what they had gotten.” Yall. My three year old came down at 3am and unwrapped EVERYONE’S presents. pic.twitter.com/8dlfqdwHO7 — Scott Reintgen (@Scott_Thought) December 25, 2023 Scott added in his caption, with the tree in the background, “We’re not mad. He’s a good kid, and it’s a story we’ll tell for the rest of our lives.” Though wrapping the gifts had taken Katie hours to do, she said he opened “literally everything, from the tiniest eraser to the biggest box.” The couple then had to make sure that their other two children were still asleep before realizing what had happened, as they didn’t want to ruin Christmas for their six-year-old who wouldn’t know what to think if they had seen everything unwrapped. Just adding his explanation for why he opened everything! 😂 Also have to add: we’re not mad. He’s a good kid, and it’s a story we’ll tell for the rest of our lives. pic.twitter.com/GKiJjPjQXR — Scott Reintgen (@Scott_Thought) December 26, 2023 Those who heard the viral story commented on Scott’s X/Twitter, sharing similar stories, “My kids did this once too! It became a rule that they could only check out their stockings before we got up.” And, “My daughter did this at 3, too. I woke up to paper being torn and she had opened everything. I caught her in the act and took a picture, which I will show her when she gets older.” Scott and Katie also have similar plans, as they stated that the story has already been written into the speech they’ll say at their toddler’s future wedding.

  • Toast and Ludwig garner support for Twitch vs YouTube boxing event after Twitter callout – Dexerto

    Toast and Ludwig garner support for Twitch vs YouTube boxing event after Twitter callout YouTube: Toast / LudwigAfter witnessing the success of iDubbbz’s Creator Clash, Disguised Toast and Ludwig entertained the idea of hosting a Twitch vs. YouTube boxing event, and it’s gaining traction on social media. Influencer boxing is all the rage these days. It started from humble beginnings as a means to resolve a feud between Logan Paul and KSI in 2018, followed by their rematch in 2019. Since then, it’s evolved into something more. Jake Paul has fought former mixed-martial-arts champions like Ben Askren and Tyron Woodley. Logan Paul went the distance against boxing legend Floyd Mayweather — something that nobody thought was possible. However, despite how much it’s grown, grassroots influencer boxing is still going strong, as evidenced by the success of YouTube vs. TikTok Battle of the Platforms and now the charitable iDubbbz’s Creator Clash. Bearing that in mind, Disguised Toast and Ludwig Ahgren, two streamers known for their innovation, flirted with the idea of hosting an influencer boxing event of their own — one that pits Twitch streamers against YouTube streamers. Toast was the one who conceived the idea. “Yo Ludwig, boxing event next year? Twitch streamers vs. YouTube streamers,” he said. Watching the action during Creators Clash must have ignited the fire in his belly. Ludwig responded almost immediately. “Make it happen! We’re going to destroy you guys!” he said. He also pitched a fight between Sykkuno, who recently moved from Twitch to YouTube, and Hasan, although it’s a bit of a mismatch. After seeing his name thrown into the hat and trying to imagine himself throwing punches at one of the most laid-back and likable streamers in the world, Hasan commended and said: “I would never be able to punch this man.” Fans also brainstormed other fight card possibilities, including xQc vs. PewDiePie, Pokimane vs. Valkyrae, NICKMERCS vs. TimTheTatman, Dr Disrespect vs. Esfand, and a whole lot more. The possibilities are endless. i would never be able to punch this man https://t.co/YTHn6A0XE0 — hasanabi (@hasanthehun) May 15, 2022 At this stage, it’s still nothing more than a thrilling idea. However, Toast and Ludwig planted the seed, and considering they both have a knack for pushing the envelope in terms of content, it could grow into something more. Influencer boxing has come a long way. However, there’s still something special about seeing your favorite streamers lace up some gloves and duke it out in the squared circle — especially when it’s for a good cause.

  • TmarTn apologizes to Nadeshot over 100 Thieves Gucci collab criticism – Dexerto

    TmarTn apologizes to Nadeshot over 100 Thieves Gucci collab criticism YouTube: TmarTn, NadeshotPopular Call of Duty YouTuber Trevor ‘TmarTn’ Martin has extended a public apology to Matthew ‘Nadeshot’ Haag after his criticism of the 100 Thieves and Gucci collaboration, with Nadeshot hitting out at the creator during a podcast a few short weeks later. TmarTn and Nadeshot are considered OGs of the Call of Duty YouTube community. For over a decade now they’ve both been popular content creators and gone on to have successful subsequent careers. Despite how far back they go together, Nade clearly felt let down when TmarTn made some disparaging comments about the groundbreaking 100 Thieves x Gucci collaboration, even admitting that he unfollowed him on Twitter as a result. “I’ve known TmarTn for 10 years, maybe longer,” he explained on the CouRage and Nadeshot Show. “The Gucci bag had just got announced… TmarTn put out a video like ‘So what does everyone think about this 100 Thieves Gucci bag? Personally, I don’t like it.’ This is one of the things you either don’t talk about or you lie about!” Timestamp 58:05 Before long, TmarTn put out a thread of tweets as well as leaving a comment on the YouTube video, apologizing profusely for the comments. He said: “Matt I love you bro, there was NO disrespect meant whatsoever by my comment. If you watch the Twitter video again, you can hear the excitement in my voice for you and 100T. “In retrospect, I could have kept a negative-ish opinion off of Twitter, but in the moment I wanted to talk about it and help amplify the launch. All publicity is good publicity.” He also posted a thread of tweets to similar effect, making sure there’s no chance Nadeshot misses his apology. He said that the bag isn’t “his style” but that the collaboration is a “massive W” and that he’s a “Nadeshot fan through & through.” Nade hasn’t yet responded to TmarTn or followed him back at the time of writing, so it looks like the apology may not be welcome just yet.

  • TmarTn upset after Pokimane mocks his apology video in PewDiePie response – Dexerto

    TmarTn upset after Pokimane mocks his apology video in PewDiePie response TmarTn / PokimanePokimane poked some fun at Trevor ‘TmarTn’ Martin with her reaction video to ‘copystrike’ allegations from PewDiePie, but TmarTn didn’t let it go unnoticed. Martin is often mocked for an ‘apology’ video he released in July 2016, after it was revealed that he was the owner of CS:GO Lotto and hadn’t disclosed his interests in the business, despite promoting it on his channel. However, after noticing that Pokimane had parodied the opening of his video – including a short clip of it and then mocking it by using her cat in place of TmarTn’s dog – the gaming YouTube questioned her on Twitter. TmarTn didn’t leave it at that, either. As other users backed up Pokimane, he explained why her use of the clip had angered him. “I had nothing to do with this” he tweeted, after being asked how Pokimane was using this to deflect away from allegations against her. “I’ve never met nor spoken to the girl before. Yet, she’s using a mistake I made years ago to lighten the mood/make a joke/deflect when she should be making an apology.” Because I had NOTHING to do with this I’ve never met nor spoken to the girl before Yet she’s using a mistake I made YEARS ago to lighten the mood/make a joke/deflect when she should be making an apology. — TmarTn (@TmarTn) January 13, 2019 While TmarTn started by questioning the parody section of video, the debate surrounding his initial apology video, and the controversy which caused it, was soon reignited on his Twitter feed. In a series of tweets, TmarTn goes into great detail about the events which now occurred over 2 years ago. I live for the memes, I just think it’s a little inappropriate on her own “apology” Like she’s using me to scapegoat and deflect her issues — TmarTn (@TmarTn) January 13, 2019 In further tweets, he explains that nothing he did at the time was ‘illegal’, and had it been, there would have been punishment. He also claims that the “sentiment” that he defrauded children is also false, as only over 18’s could use the site. We didn’t properly disclose our relationship with the company. There were not guidelines from the FTC for influencers at that point. There are now, we helped form them. Nothing we did was illegal. — TmarTn (@TmarTn) January 13, 2019 It had nothing to do with ‘kids’ either. No clue why this sentiment has become so prevalent. My audience is primarily 18-25. It was an M rated game. Skins were purchased with credit cards, which are 18+. There were protections on the site as well. — TmarTn (@TmarTn) January 13, 2019 Then, while Martin admitted that there were things that he should have definitely done differently, he argues that there were a lot of allegations made against him presented as fact, and that FTC had cleared both him and Syndicate. The court & FTC had all facts/evidence & made a decision. That’s not luck. That’s how the legal system works. Yes, there are things that we could have (& should have) done differently. Gotta live & learn. Was the hardest and most trying part of my life, but I’m a better person. — TmarTn (@TmarTn) January 13, 2019 He also suggests that H3H3’s video, which was largely responsible for exposing TmarTn and Syndicate’s wrongdoing, was ‘one-sided’ and that Ethan Klein of H3H3 was not in possession of all the facts. He made a lot of misallegations and made statements as facts when they were untrue. Had he reached out, I could have provided him that proof and the story could have been a little less one-sided. People could have known the truth, not just assumed the worst. — TmarTn (@TmarTn) January 13, 2019 Pokimane has recently been accused of wrongly ‘copystriking’ other YouTubers for including her name or content in their videos and an ongoing feud between her and PewDiePie began when fellow YouTuber Alinity suggested that she would do the same to PewDiePie because he used the term ‘thot’. PewDiePie reacted by posting a video to his YouTube channel, which has over 80 million subscribers at the time of writing, called: ‘STOP DOING THIS’. He mentioned Pokimane and the allegations against her, but did sympathize with her situation.

  • Tiny streamer becomes one of Twitch’s biggest channels overnight – Dexerto

    Tiny streamer becomes one of Twitch’s biggest channels overnight KlarcTheKid / TwitchA small Twitch streamer ‘KlarcTheKid’ has become one of the fast-growing channels on the popular livestreaming platform after gaining over 4.4 million followers in a single day. There are plenty of aspiring content creators looking to build up their following and community on platforms such as Twitch and YouTube, but it can take a lot of time and effort to become successful. Although it is extremely difficult, without a push from other platforms or influencers, to become one of the fastest-growing creators, there have been a number of small streamers who have exploded in follower count over recent months. While there are strict rules preventing Twitch streamers from artificially boosting their followers and viewer counts through third-party sites, a few creators, such as aileybeanssa, confirmed that their channels had been randomly botted out of nowhere. Now, another small streamer KlarcTheKid has also had a bizarre follower increase, after gaining 4.4 million followers overnight on November 14, according to TwitchMetrics. The streamer instantly rocketed to the top of Twitch’s fastest-growing creators but he revealed on his Twitch bio that he was being targeted by a troll who was likely trying to get him banned. “Almost all of these follows are bots from a guy harassing me.” he admitted, apologizing for the unusual circumstance, “Sorry, for the confusion.” Shortly after the channel was botted, a correction was made to KlarcTheKid’s follower count, removing almost half of his unexpected increase, but his channel has still gained over 2 million followers compared to the hundreds of fans he had before. Other streamers affected by these random follow bots have previously claimed that Twitch was unable to do much to reverse the effects and that they still have plenty of bots following their channel. While Twitch has not issued any disciplinary action with channels like aileybeanssa, who suffered a similar botting, it is unclear whether they will decide to stick with the same approach for KlarcTheKid’s unusual rise.

  • Tiny Twitch streamer makes over $85,000 after raid by crypto enthusiasts – Dexerto

    Tiny Twitch streamer makes over $85,000 after raid by crypto enthusiasts Twitch/cameron_ferguson_musicA small Twitch streamer who was playing guitar to a handful of people had one of the craziest nights of his life after being donated over $85,000 when crypto fanatics showed up in his chat. Going into his stream on April 15, Cameron Ferguson had no idea he would have one of the most successful nights anyone has ever had on Twitch, and it’s because he was noticed by Cobie, who has the Twitter handle CryptoCobain, and hosts a show called Up Early. During Cobie’s stream, he was looking for smaller streamers and stumbled across Cameron Ferguson playing music for a few people and decided to raid him. That’s not all that happened, however, he also instructed the streamer to create a Twitter account, get on the cryptocurrency app Blockfolio and put his address in his bio so others could donate to him. https://twitter.com/CryptoCobain/status/1382815472677179392 From there, the money just started to roll in and completely change the tiny streamer’s life. “$17,167…” Cameron shockingly gasped when he pulled up his account with all the donations. “Guys, that is insane. Thank you so much. Man, I seriously appreciate that. Thank you so much.” Still shocked that he could ever make so much money, the streamer confessed that he had “no idea what was going on” which got a laugh out of Cobie. Eventually, the streamer even brought his wife on stream to show her the good news. “Guess how much money we have!” he asked her. After guessing $1,000 and $2,000, Cameron showed her his phone and stunned the living daylights out of her. “This isn’t real!” she gasped. A bit later on, in some leaked DMs posted by Cobie, Cameron admitted she was “cautiously optimistic” as $85,000 doesn’t just come out of nowhere. When all was said and done, however, Cameron finally posted his first-ever tweet thanking everyone for their support. https://twitter.com/CryptoCobain/status/1382910942200102923 “THANK YOU! Up Only and everyone who joined in for one of the craziest nights of my life. This being my first tweet ever, I sincerely hope this thank you reaches everyone who tuned in tonight. If I don’t get back to you, apologies, I’m overwhelmed. Thank you!” he exclaimed. It just goes to show that one stream on Twitch can completely change your life and that’s exactly what happened here with one of the craziest streamer stories of all time.

  • “Tiny cretin” James Corden roasted endlessly amid Balthazar restaurant beef – Dexerto

    “Tiny cretin” James Corden roasted endlessly amid Balthazar restaurant beef YouTube: ITVAfter treating the staff harshly, Gavin and Stacey star James Corden is at the center of widespread backlash, following his ban from the iconic New York City restaurant Balthazar. The Balthazar restaurant is a staple of New York City culture. Opened in 1997, the French brasserie has seen all manner of celebrities walk through its doors, including James Corden. Corden became a Los Angeles resident in 2015, replacing Craig Ferguson as the host of the Late, Late Show. Now, The Wrong Mans star is facing backlash for his actions at the Balthazar restaurant, after the owner alleged that Corden’s attitude towards the staff was unacceptable. Ryanair and more “ban” James Corden following Balthazar incident On October 17, Balthazar restaurant owner Keith McNally accused Corden of “extremely nasty” behavior during his visit. “James Corden is a hugely gifted comedian, but a tiny cretin of a man,” McNally remarked. McNally clarified that “I don’t often 86 a customer. Today I 86’d Corden. It did not make me laugh.” The restauranteur claimed Corden had shown shades of this behavior in his previous establishment. One example saw Corden “yelling like crazy” as a result of an honest mistake relating to his order. The encounter reportedly left McNally’s staff “shaken” at the end of their shift. Corden’s reputation has taken on a divisive effect in recent times, and social media hasn’t hesitated to fire back at his dining etiquette. Irish airline Ryanair were quick to join in an emerging trend of “bans” that are poking fun at the situation. “James Corden BANNED from Ryanair” declared the airline. Comedian Phillip Henry used the opportunity to jab Corden’s hugely maligned performances in Cats and The Prom. “I don’t need James Corden banned from Balthazar, I need him banned from movie musicals,” Henry joked. Since McNally’s story went viral, it has been revealed that Corden’s ban has been lifted. McNally explained “James Corden just called me and apologized profusely. Having f****** up myself more than most people, I strongly believe in second chances.” “Anyone magnanimous enough to apologize to a deadbeat layabout like me (and my staff) doesn’t deserve to be banned from anywhere. Especially Balthazar. So Come Back to the 5 & Dime, Jimmy Corden,” added McNally.

  • Tinder slammed after launching $499 subscription tier: “nobody’s buying this” – Dexerto

    Tinder slammed after launching $499 subscription tier: “nobody’s buying this” TinderBack in September, Tinder announced the launch of its premium subscription service at $499 a month, and that number still isn’t going over well with the internet now that it’s officially live. Tinder Select, which is still currently invite-only, professes to give its users the best of Tinder. But at that price, it looks like most of the internet still isn’t interested, “nobody’s buying this,” one user tweeted in response to its launch on Deccember 18, 2023. “How down bad do you gotta be?” asked tech YouTuber Marques Brownless. “At this point just get an escort” said another, complete with crying face emoji. One Twitter user pointed out if someone “just hit the club with $500” they could probably get as lucky as they could paying the same amount on Tinder for a month. The internet wasn’t too keen on the idea back when it was announced either, but Tinder says there are users who want it. According to chief product officer, Mark Van Ryswyk the company engaged in “extensive tests and feedback” with the most engaged app users before developing and launching the service. The monthly subscription entitles users to various benefits including sending messages without matching with someone and showing you the most desired profiles — as judged by Tinder. How well these additional benefits translate into date-worthy matches for subscribers isn’t exactly quantified either. Tinder at a premium price is clearly just not something a lot of people are willing to pay for. But if they’re still offering it, there must be more than few Tinder Select subscribers out there. At least enough for the service to roll out its invite-only debut today, with a full launch set to follow.

  • Tinder streamer reveals strategy for talking to girls with no bio – Dexerto

    Tinder streamer reveals strategy for talking to girls with no bio Pixabay/TinderTwitch streamer ‘Darius_IRL’ revealed his go-to tactic for messaging girls on Tinder when they don’t have much in their bio. Tinder is widely considered one of the top dating applications due to its simplicity of swiping, matching and talking with other users. Normally, people on the app fill out a short bio, detailing who they are and what they’re into, in addition to just uploading photos of themselves. However, talking to someone when their profile is scarce or even empty can prove to be a challenge. That said, IRL streamer Darius has a technique that he’s used effectively, and it can easily be applied to your own Tinder game. “Whenever you don’t know what to do… if you have a girl that just doesn’t have much in her bio or it’s just cringe or whatever, what you do is you look at their anthem,” he explained. Anthem is a feature that links a song from Spotify to your bio to show off what kind of music you like. Normally, it can help as a good ice-breaker, but only if the song has some relevance to the person on the other end. Darius thinks he’s found a way to get around that problem. “You see what their favorite song is,” the streamer continued before going to Google and searching “Reddit,” the artist, and song name. “You go to the first link and then you just scroll down and look for a positive comment. And then you just copy and you paste (it in the conversation),” he said. The trick should be able to generate some intrigue, but at the end of the day, it’s still taking a comment that isn’t yours. That said, while Darius didn’t suggest modifying the comment, that alternative could prove to be useful – especially if one’s match decides to Google the opening message and discovers it was taken from Reddit. If you ever match with a girl and don’t know what to say, this technique might be worth a try – although you never know where it will lead you.

  • Tinder announces new $499 monthly subscription plan and the internet has lost it – Dexerto

    Tinder announces new $499 monthly subscription plan and the internet has lost it Twitter: DexertoTinder has announced a new premium option for subscriptions known as Tinder Select, a plan that costs $499 a month and has the internet losing it. Dating in modern times can be quite a challenging task. With the introduction of the internet and mobile phones, folks have become less likely to hit up bars and clubs with the hope of meeting a special someone. That’s why we’ve seen a bunch of dating apps crop up over the years, all promising users hot available singles for dates and other less safe for work activities. However, even dating apps have their own set of issues, making them far from the perfect place to meet the one. Whether that be the harassment that some users experience or the ghosting behaviors that have cropped up as a result, it’s not quite as easy as you’d think. One of the biggest complaints some users have with dating apps is the low amount of likes or matches they receive while using them. Now, top dating app Tinder has revealed a new subscription plan that may be the solution to this ever-growing issue. Twitter has announced a new plan called Tinder Select. Priced at around $499 USD a month, this plan is designed for Tinder users willing to fork out their rent payments in order to find someone. In fact, the program is so selective that users will need to meet certain criteria, send in an application, and then be accepted to join. The Select subscription does offer a bunch of benefits in return. This includes the ability to message before matching, have their profile unblurred in other users’ likes page, and also receive a special badge to notify others that they’re the real deal. As expected, the internet was not too keen on spending half a grand a month on a Tinder subscription and responded in kind, memeing on the decision out of the gate. “$499 just to meet a deadbeat guy? Nah” one user questioned. “Paying 500$ monthly just so shorty can put your contact as ‘free food’” another joked. With the immediate backlash following the announcement, it’s unclear just how many Tinder users are eager to opt into the program. We’ll just have to wait and see if the Team at Tinder sends this idea back to the kitchen.

  • Tinashe fans trash Tate McRae for failing to credit singer’s dancing – Dexerto

    Tinashe fans trash Tate McRae for failing to credit singer’s dancing Youtube: Blu Skyy OrkastarTate McRae appeared on the Lorraine talk show where she credited Tinashe and Victoria Monet for bringing dancing back in videos, and Tinashe fans are angry about it. Tate McRae is having a great week. Recently, she scored her first-ever Top 10 hit (“Greedy”) on the Billboard Hot 100. Plus, with the release of her debut album, Think Later, she stakes her claim in pop music. In her music videos, she shows off impressive dance skills, causing many to proclaim the newcomer as “the new Britney” after an SNL performance. Things took a turn, however, after McRae did an interview during which she did not credit another popular singer/dancer. And fans are upset. Tinashe fans left angry when Tate McRae did not mention their favorite singer During an interview for Lorraine, Tate McRae sat down to talk about Think Later and her dancing background. “It’s fun to be able to dance that much in a video,” she said. “I think so many girls are bringing it back – like Victoria Monet right now… and Normani.” (Topic begins at 4:42) She added, “But it’s so fun to play around and be able to dance with people I’ve admired for so long.” Tinashe fans immediately took to Twitter/X to express their anger. “Tinashe did it better,” wrote one fan. “A barely seasoned carbon copy of Tinashe, mind you,” said a fan. An additional user blasted McRae, writing, “I mean she very much copies Tinashe, who’s been doing it tirelessly since ~2014, but sure.” “Damn put some respect to Tinashe, too. Love Normani and Vic Monet, but that Room for Us and Bounce MV got killer choreo,” mentioned another user. “Tinashe reading this,” Chis Baker chimed in, attaching a shaking head gif.

  • Tinakitten pleads with fans to “respect boundaries” after Valkyrae cries on stream – Dexerto

    Tinakitten pleads with fans to “respect boundaries” after Valkyrae cries on stream Twitter: Tinakitten, Twitter: Valkyrae, InnerslothDuring a somewhat now-infamous Among Us stream that ended with Rachel ‘Valkyrae’ Hofstetter in tears, fellow streamer Tinakitten has asked fans to “respect boundaries.” After a recent series of Among Us games ended in Valkyrae breaking down after her chat took a harmless joke in a particularly vicious direction, the 100 Thieves star has made the decision to make her chat members-only until further notice. During the game, Valkyrae loudly proclaimed that “Leslie’s life matters” in response to her teammate Leslie ‘fuslie’ Fu continually being the target of Imposter attacks. Sadly, this snowballed into some viewers in the chat ridiculing the Black Lives Matter (BLM) movement. While the content creator took a break to compose herself, teammate Tinakitten took the time to educate her stream on how best to deal with situations where we see our favorite streamers struggle live. Tinakitten asks viewers to “not say anything” As soon as Rae showed signs of being upset, chatters immediately went to other creator’s streams in an attempt to spread the word. While all of this was done with good intentions at heart, Tina sat down with her viewers to explain why this isn’t the best way to combat the situation. “To be truly respectful, just don’t say anything,” she pleads. “It feels uncomfortable if you’re, like, spreading it to the friends and stuff.” “To be honest, when I express what I consider too much emotion to be displayed publicly and I’m embarrassed, the last thing I want is for my community to make it bigger than it is, especially when I didn’t want it to happen in the first place. “To just be respectful, send her support directly if you’d like to, but it’s really weird if you go to other streamers chats and talk about it, because it’s inappropriate. I know you guys have her best interest at heart, but you need to not gossip. Be sweet to her, but respect the boundaries of others.” Tina clearly knows that Rae’s fans’ reactions to the situation were prompted by good intentions, but she makes an important point regarding boundaries online. Valkyrae will now move forward with her chat exclusively in members-only, which should help calm tensions for the time being.

  • TinaKitten responds to Twitter trend to get her & Sykkuno verified – Dexerto

    TinaKitten responds to Twitter trend to get her & Sykkuno verified Twitch: TinaKitten/SykkunoPopular Twitch streamer TinaKitten, also known as TeanaKitten, responded to fans who have been trying to get herself and Sykkuno verified on Twitter with a hashtag campaign. Getting the verified checkmark on Twitter used to be a pretty significant point for many content creators, given it was incredibly difficult to do so, and you needed more than just one or two vouches from other users. These days, getting a checkmark isn’t all that difficult, but there are some prominent content creators from across YouTube, Twitch, Instagram, TikTok, and more that are still waiting for the blue tick to grace their Twitter account. That includes Twitch streamers TinaKitten and Sykkuno, who both have massive followings on Twitch and Twitter. On April 10, fans of the pair kickstarted a campaign for them to get verified as they began tweeting out the hashtags #VerifyTina and #VerifySykkuno. Both hashtags got a fair bit of traction as content creators started weighing and supporting what the fans were saying. Ultimately, Tina got around to responding to the hashtags with a few tongue-in-cheek tweets. “Perhaps I do not want to be verified! perhaps my friends still like me without it! :D” she posted before some other streamers jokingly offered to give her their own verified checkmark. perhaps I do not want to be verified! perhaps my friends still like me without it! 😀 — tina 😀 (@TinaKitten) April 10, 2021 Twitch streamer 5Up joined in with the jokes, saying that having a verified tick “isn’t that cool” while EmmaLangevin asked Tina not to forget her when the tick finally comes her way. “Time will tell Emma!!” the streamer hilariously tweeted in reply to that. omg u can just give me yours then!!! thanks 5up you’re the best > — tina 😀 (@TinaKitten) April 10, 2021 Given the popularity of both Tina and Sykkuno, a verified checkmark is probably coming their way at some point.

  • TinaKitten confirms 100 Thieves departure: “It’s just creative differences” – Dexerto

    TinaKitten confirms 100 Thieves departure: “It’s just creative differences” Twitch: TinaKittenChristina ‘TinaKitten’ Kenyon has confirmed her 100 Thieves departure, just a year on from signing on. She cited “creative differences” and no bad blood between her and the iconic gaming organization. TinaKitten was a big pickup for 100 Thieves back in September 2021, joining forces with friends under the banner like Valkyrae and BrookeAB. They decked the Compound out with a fresh lick of paint to welcome her on, and she was thrusted into the bright spotlight the org offers. However, 12 months on, she has moved on, telling her stream on December 26 she has officially left 100 Thieves after rumors of her departure. “I guess this is a good time as ever to probably just say it… but we did part ways,” she said. “It’s nothing bad, it’s nothing serious, I love them and all that, but it’s just creative differences and whatnot. “100 Thieves did take a lot of time out of my schedule, and there were definitely times where I felt like I was traveling a lot back and forth for them. That’s not the case anymore, but it’s nothing to be super sad about. “I’m okay with it, they’re okay with it. I’ll miss doing the shoots and stuff.” Tina emphasized the fact she didn’t have anything bad to say about 100 Thieves and their members personally. She is still “literally living in their basement”, she joked. But she found it best to address it on stream to clear up any misunderstandings. “I love them a lot, but just a lot of creative differences and stuff, and it just didn’t work out, and that’s okay. “I didn’t want to tweet about it because I didn’t want anyone to misread the situation because nothing bad happened. As for what Tina’s future holds? It’ll just be her focusing on herself and doing things on her terms: “It’s not like I’m going to another org. I’m just doing more Tina things, and that’s really all.”
