![]() ![]() Let me tell you now, I’m not a 50-year-old man. This is in my heart, blood, and soul, and you’re gonna feel that. “(Now) you’ve got a fresh, young, 23-year-old, proper, legitimate fighter, who would have it inside and outside the ring. He still went eight rounds with him and looked like he’d been through the trenches.” ‘This guy’s a great striker’ - yeah, in MMA, not boxing. They’re not boxers, and this guy couldn’t even deal with them. I’ve absolutely took apart every MMA fighter I’ve ever sparred with in my entire life. And everybody knows who knows about boxing, MMA fighters are not boxers. Tyron Woodley was 40 years old, Anderson Silva was nearly 50, not too far from my dad’s age. “He keeps going on and on about Anderson Silva and Tyron Woodley. I’ve been boxing my whole life and I’m going to clinically knock this guy out early.” For the past two-and-a-half years it’s been, ‘When are you fighting Jake Paul?’ To even mention my name with his, it’s disrespectful to me. What do you want me to do? Second (date), went to the airport, ready to go, denied access into the USA. First (date), broke rib, doctors advised me not to fight. The past two (date) didn’t happen because of it being out of my hands completed. If I’m to do that, I can’t be dodging people like Jake Paul. I’m in boxing and have goals of being world champion. The only time he wanted to get in the ring is when I increased the money.” Tommy Fury This is why I’ve given this guy multiple chances and paid him so much money to finally show up. This is why this fight’s so big, why I’m so excited. Now I can finally silence the critics who have said, ‘Fight a professional boxer, fight someone your own age.’ And I agree, I haven’t proven that. The age thing is, that’s what people are hung up on, and that’s why I’m so excited for this fight. You think that Mike Tyson (at 56) couldn’t beat Tommy Fury’s ass right now? You’re wrong. They can talk about all these things, MMA fighters, but you put Anderson Silva in there with Tommy Fury, Anderson Silva knocks him out. ![]() The Warrens put me in there with scrubs, and now I have a real fight, eight rounds.’ He’s never been eight rounds, and he’s gonna get in the deep water and drown, I promise that.” When he’s in the locker room warming up he’s gonna be thinking, ‘Damn, everyone has been put in there to lose. “He’s never been put in there with someone who wasn’t there to lose. He couldn’t knock out Daniel Bocianski, he can’t knock out the taxi drivers he’s been put in there with, who have a combined record of 20 wins and 250 losses.” But there’s nothing he can do to stop me. He don’t got no legs, he’s top-heavy as shit, he looks like the Michelin Man or something. I don’t even know how his arms look like that. He’s fast, he’s got length, he’s strong, he’s got them inflatable arms. So to go in there and out-box him, put him on the canvas, to me (Tommy) is a speed bump and a cakewalk.” Anderson Silva is one of the greatest strikers ever. He was getting paid peanuts compared to this. He’s never been on a stage like this, he’s never gotten paid like this. This is the biggest opportunity of his life. I have more of a ‘why,’ I have more of a purpose. I’ve always trained harder, I’ve always trained tougher than all of my opponents. So when Tommy says, ‘I’ve been doing this my whole life,’ none of that means anything. Tyron Woodley was winning the UFC championship while I was on Disney Channel. And his lack of defense and lack of head movement’s going to be exposed on Sunday.” He’s a good boxer but he’s not a great boxer. He’s great on offense, he’s got a good jab, lots of combos, speed, good foot work, good movement. “We’ve picked this guy apart, we’ve studied him. Here’s everything else the two fighters said on the stage.īet on Jake Paul vs Tommy Fury and more boxing at DraftKings Sportsbook! Jake Paul Paul said the contract has already been drawn up when John asked for it in writing. That’s when Paul offered his proposal, which Tommy didn’t really respond to, but his father eventually did. You should have stuck to making easy money fighting old men and celebrities. You should not be sitting here right now. You’re getting put to sleep inside four rounds. Tommy, do you think this is gonna be an easy fight?” “He comes from the bloodline, he’s been doing it his whole entire. Knocking me out, starching me, all these things,” Paul said as he began the challenge. Whether this actually happens or is remotely real or not is another story, but it makes for good headlines. ![]() Jake Paul and Tommy Fury did both show up to today’s press conference, and at the end of it, Paul did his usual thing where he tried to throw some bet on top of everything else, this time an “all or nothing” deal, which John Fury accepted on Tommy’s behalf.īasically, the deal as proposed is that if Tommy wins, Paul will pay his opponent double his purse, and if Paul wins, Tommy makes nothing. ![]()
