At that point, Jake said he was moving on and looking for other opponents. Jake fought, and defeated, Anderson \u2018The Spider\u2019 Silva back in October, and despite penning a deal to join the MMA ranks of the PFL, has been talking about another fight in the boxing ring first. That, we know now, will be against Fury.

Jake Paul vs Tommy Fury fight card As we\u2019ve seen with previous Jake fights, the undercard will likely contain a few bouts with fighters from his MVP brand.
