Jake Paul blasts Hasim Rahman Jr. & Tommy Fury as fight cancelations cost him millions YouTube: ESPNJake Paul says he\u2019s out \u201cmillions and millions of dollars\u201d after fights against both Tommy Fury and Hasim Rahman Jr. have been canceled this summer. After co-promoting the Amanda Serrano vs Katie Taylor super fight, Jake Paul confirmed that he\u2019d be getting back into the boxing ring this summer and ending his hiatus from in-ring action. However, things haven\u2019t entirely gone to plan. The \u2018Problem Child\u2019 was first slated to take on longtime rival Tommy Fury, but the Brit pulled out of the August 6th fight due to travel issues. Hasim Rahman Jr, a Heavyweight and former training partner of Jake\u2019s, was then drafted in. Yet, that fight was canceled on July 31 due to weight issues. Both Jake and Hasim have weighed in on the cancellation, with each side blaming the other. As it stands, Jake is unlikely to fight in August now, which had big financial implications for him. Jake Paul says fight cancelations have cost him \u201cmillions\u201d In the wake of the fight being canceled, the YouTuber-turned-boxer hit out at Rahman\u2019s \u201cabsurd\u201d cancelation and claimed that boxers are too \u201cscared\u201d to fight him. He also took further shots at the Heavyweight via Instagram, urging other promoters not to book him on their fight cards. \u201cAll jokes aside, I can\u2019t believe how much of a bitch Hasim is and how stupid he is for ruining the biggest opportunity and the biggest payday that he will ever get in his life,\u201d Jake posted. \u201cFor anyone who is thinking about getting Hasim to fight on any of your cards, do yourself a big favor and don\u2019t. Him and his team are the most unprofessional people any of us have ever worked with. A nightmare. Between him and Tommy Fury, they have cost me and my partners millions and millions of dollars.\u201d While Jake hasn\u2019t specified just how he\u2019s lost, it\u2019s likely that he\u2019s lost a fair bit in canceling his booking of Madison Square Garden, as well as refunding tickets and pay-per-view buys. He also hasn\u2019t made it clear what he plans to do next \u2013 including who he might fight \u2013 so we\u2019ll just have to wait and see what unfolds in the aftermath of all this.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
