Jake Paul hits back at Tyson Fury\u2019s brutal fight prediction Screengrabs via: iFL TV \/ Instagram: Jake PaulJake Paul has responded to Tyson Fury\u2019s claims that younger brother Tommy Fury could have \u201chis worst night ever\u201d and still come out on top \u2013 perhaps more calmly than most would expect. YouTube boxing\u2019s next major instalment is fast approaching \u2013 with many fans excited for Jake Paul to meet Tommy Fury on December 18, the first time Paul will fight a currently active professional boxer. We\u2019ve seen him overcome retired basketball pros like Nate Robinson and former MMA fighters like Ben Askren and Tyron Woodley. Because of this record, Tommy Fury\u2019s older brother Tyson, who recently defeated Deontay Wilder in an epic conclusion the pair\u2019s boxing trilogy, has suggested it will be a walk in the park for his relative. He commented that Tommy could \u201cturn up with broken ribs, a broken left hand, two left feet, his clothes on back to front and with the flu\u201d and still win. Naturally, the provocative comments elicited a response from the American, but it was perhaps less fiery than one would expect. A December 3 tweet saw Paul simply comment: \u201cI smell cap\u201d. Paul\u2019s comments essentially mean he thinks Tyson is grossly overstating Tommy\u2019s talents, and that their December 18 bout will be much closer than he is making out. It\u2019s a more restrained response than we\u2019ve come to expect from Jake Paul, who has always been confident in his boxing abilities, even when going into fights as the underdog. That will of course be the case on December 18, but many believe that fighting a professional (and undefeated) boxer will be a step too far for the YouTuber. Some have even expressed concern for Paul while others, like KSI, believe his handling of big occasions makes him the favorite. We\u2019re not far from finding out.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
