Tommy Fury camp addresses claims Jake Paul fight is \u201cdead in the water\u201d Instagram: Jake Paul\/Tommy FuryTommy Fury\u2019s promoter, Frank Warren, has responded to claims that the Brit\u2019s fight with Jake Paul is \u201cdead in the water\u201d following his issues with traveling to the United States. When Jake Paul confirmed that he\u2019d be returning to the boxing ring in August, there were plenty of rumors about who his opponent might be. Though, fans only wanted him linked with one name \u2013 Tommy Fury. Despite Jake previously saying that he was leaving Tommy \u201cin the dust\u201d and looking at the different opponents, the longtime rivals agreed to fight each other on August 6th at Madison Square Garden. However, the fight appears to be on the ropes as Tommy is unable to get into the United States. Jake has claimed he is \u201cmoving on\u201d and finding another opponent, but Fury\u2019s camp is hopeful it\u2019ll go ahead as planned. Tommy\u2019s promoter, Frank Warren, was quizzed about the fight being \u201cdead in the water\u201d following his Queensberry Promotion\u2019s July 2nd event in London. \u201cIf he (Tommy) doesn\u2019t get to the embassy in time and doesn\u2019t get his ESTA, which is what it\u2019s all about, then it will be (dead in the water)\u201d Warren told reporters after the fight card. \u201cWe hope that\u2019s not going to be the case but understand from Jake\u2019s position and his team, they can\u2019t hang around and wait forever, they\u2019ve got a date booked and they\u2019re going to want somebody in there and in that opposite corner to sell tickets with. Let\u2019s hope it\u2019s going to be Tommy still.\u201d Timestamp of 5:00 While Jake has claimed he\u2019s looking for a different opponent, to this point, the fight with Tommy hasn\u2019t been officially canceled and is still scheduled to go ahead. The YouTuber-turned-boxer has been offered other opponents as replacements for Tommy, but fans are eager to see the two longtime rivals face off. Though, we\u2019ll just have to wait and see what happens.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
