The long-awaited fight between Jake Paul and Love Island star Tommy Fury is once again in doubt. Despite Tommy agreeing to fight after Jake gave him a 24 hour warning, he was unable to attend the press conference on June 29 after travel issues. Despite \u2018The Problem Child\u2019 claiming he won\u2019t let Fury \u201cweasel out\u201d of the fight, it may be out of his hands. Tyson Fury, the older half-brother of Tommy, has been refused entry to the US twice in the past, reportedly due to sanctions imposed on boxing manager Daniel Kinahan in April of 2022. Now, with YouTube rival KSI marking his own return to the ring on August 27 in the UK, he\u2019s offered to let Jake and Tommy fight as the co-main event, something that Paul isn\u2019t too fond of. Jake Paul refuses KSI\u2019s help to fight Tommy Fury in the UK After news of Tommy Fury\u2019s travel issues broke, KSI decided to throw his rival a \u201clifeline\u201d and welcome him to fight on his own card. \u201cIf you TRULY want to fight Tommy, fight on my card as the co-main event. I\u2019ve got everything set up for you,\u201d KSI said. \u201cBest believe you owe me though. [The] ball is in your court.\u201d However, Jake wasn\u2019t fond of the idea in the slightest and even took it as a downgrade from main-eventing in Maddison Square Garden. I play chess, u play checkers. Ur opponent is repped by me &#038; I know a lot more about ur biz than u would like. Ur not on my level in boxing or the boxing biz. Out of respect for my client, I\u2019ll let u keep chirping away like a canary. You &#038; Fury r both big mouths, w\/ small sacks. https:\/\/t.co\/9GGbRbHjec \u2014 Jake Paul (@jakepaul) June 29, 2022 The Problem Child shot right back, claiming that he was in a league about KSI, comparing his boxing to chess while the Brit was playing checkers. \u201cYour opponent is repped by me and I know a lot more about your business than you would like. You\u2019re not on my level in boxing or the boxing business. Out of respect for my client, I\u2019ll let you keep chirping away like a canary.\u201d \u201cYou and Fury are both big mouths with small sacks,\u201d he blasted, completely dismissing the offer. Jake Paul open to fighting Tommy Fury in the UK A few hours later, Jake Paul posted a video claiming that he believes the Fury family is trying to manipulate the situation to make him fight in the UK. \u201cYou want me to fight in the UK? Okay, show me $15 million. Because here, in America, we do more pay-per-view buys, we do more ticket sales, and we do more sponsorships. I\u2019ve shown you the money. We\u2019re ready to go!\u201d he blasted, but admitted he was willing to go to the UK for the right money. 15 million?!?! \ud83d\ude02\ud83d\ude02\ud83d\ude02\ud83d\ude02\ud83d\ude02 You\u2019re delusional. You didn\u2019t even get that for your last fight. This fight is crumbling before you\u2019re eyes and I\u2019m enjoying every minute of this. Tyron Woodley is on standby. I can feel it \ud83d\udc80\ud83d\udc80\ud83d\udc80 https:\/\/t.co\/UP8n9ojvC4 \u2014 ksi (@KSI) June 29, 2022 KSI meanwhile laughed at this, calling the $15m price tag \u201cdelusional,\u201d and joked that Jake would once again be fighting Tyron Woodley in Fury\u2019s place. Only time will tell if the fight between Jake Paul and Tommy Fury will actually go ahead as planned. This is the second time that a match between the two has been jeopardized, with their first scheduled fight back in December being replaced after Fury suffered an injury resulting in Paul rematching Tyron Woodley instead.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Jake Paul brutally shuts down KSI\u2019s offer to fight Tommy Fury on his boxing card Instagram\/KSI\/JakePaul\/TommyFuryInfluencer-turned-boxer Jake Paul shut down an offer from KSI to move his fight against Tommy Fury to his own card after Fury was refused entry to the US.
