Having defeated former NBA pro Nate Robinson and retired MMA fighter Ben Askren, Jake has since set his sights on Floyd Mayweather \u2014 but Tommy Fury, a fellow pro boxer and reality TV star, feels he might a good matchup for the youngest Paul brother. While he\u2019s called out Jake once before in the past, it seems Fury is hellbent on scoring a bout with the YouTuber; he recently published a callout video on Instagram that featured his half-brother, Tyson Fury, as well as NBA champion Shaquille O\u2019Neal in a bid to bring Paul into the ring. View this post on Instagram Unfortunately, it doesn\u2019t look like Jake is interested, owing to a pointed Instagram video he uploaded in response to Tommy\u2019s star-studded challenge. According to Paul, Tommy just doesn\u2019t have the star power that he\u2019s looking for, and even claimed that his response video would be the biggest promotion that Fury would get for his upcoming bout on June 5. \u201cThe desperation is seeping through the pores of the Fury family,\u201d Paul taunted. \u201cIt\u2019s quite embarrassing. The heavyweight champion of the world is talking about Jake Paul, begging me to fight his brother.\u201d \u201cFight someone real, do a real pay-per-view, and maybe we can chat,\u201d he continued. \u201c\u2026You guys are desperate. Tommy, you fight for $100,000. You have some ladders to climb to get onto my level. I\u2019m not talking about this anymore. Peace out. F**k you guys.\u201d Jake Paul responds to Tommy Fury&#8217;s latest call-out video with Tyson Fury\u2026 [\ud83d\udcfd\ufe0f @JakePaul] pic.twitter.com\/zzWTkhusjj \u2014 Michael Benson (@MichaelBensonn) May 20, 2021 That\u2019s not all; Paul even claimed that Fury\u2019s girlfriend, Molly Mae, had slid into his DMs, although it\u2019s dubious as to whether or not the alleged exchange between them is even real. Thus far, it looks like a bout between Jake Paul and Tommy Fury isn\u2019t in the cards as big bro Logan gears up to touch gloves with Floyd Mayweather in just a few weeks\u2019 time.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Jake Paul shuts down Tommy Fury\u2019s fight request: \u201cI\u2019m not talking about this anymore\u201d Instagram: Tommy Fury \/ YouTube: Jake PaulYouTuber Jake Paul has made it quite clear that he\u2019s not interested in a bout with boxer Tommy Fury, claiming that the reality star has \u201csome ladders to climb to get onto my level.\u201d Ever [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-51543","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-uncategorized"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/dejan.au\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/51543","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/dejan.au\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/dejan.au\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dejan.au\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dejan.au\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=51543"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/dejan.au\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/51543\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/dejan.au\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=51543"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dejan.au\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=51543"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dejan.au\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=51543"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
