    Reminds me of the old celebrity death match cartoons, except without the real celebrities or the desired outcome at the end.

    It's not boxing, it's more like WWE. Anyone betting on it wants their head checking, it's probably been scripted.

    it's not competition boxing by any definition, is it? there are many many boxers in the world, better than both, that have grafted a lot harder, who will never get the opportunity that these chumps are getting. people say it raises the profile for other boxers to earn more. does it? or does it just open more doors for the next content creator to put on a pair of gloves?

    for me, boxing should be about who you want to win, not who you want to lose the most. I think on balance, I probably want fury to lose the most, as I want to see papa fury embarrass himself (again).

    Funny you should say that cos r lass showed me a picture earlier of a script of how the fight will pan out. Be interesting to see if it is anyway close to the script.

    It's fkin embarrassing to the sport of boxing. Young lads & lasses work so hard for years and years and years, genuinely good boxers, disciplined, determined, everything you need to work your way up. And these 2 get it for being in disney & being the brother of a genuine boxer. Have you seen the record of Tommy Fury's opponents?

    Decent having Badou Jack on the undercard. He's been in the ring with the likes of Degale, Groves, Dirrell and Bute. The pressure is on Tommy Fury. He's the one from a Boxing family and he's boxing someone who calls him Tommy Fumbles and told people he had become a dad before he was able to announce it with his partner himself. To lose to a social media personality wouldn't go down well with his dad or brother. The Paul brothers are excellent are self promotion and making loads of cash. Logan Paul has done well in his as yet short WWE career and really applied himself to it with long training sessions with Shawn Michaels at the WWE Performance Center in Orlando.

    Well that was dull. Not sure if Paul overachieved or Fury underachieved.

    Tommy Fury in his own words there “making his own legacy”

    Getting knocked down by a YouTuber and only beating him via a split decision.

    What. A. Legacy.

    Wonder if Jake Paul will honour the double price offer he made yesterday…
    Jake also just said he thought he had two 10-8 rounds. Be interested to know which he thought they were…

    Neither are the greatest boxers but Jake Paul isn't just a YouTuber anymore is he, I think that's fairly obvious.

    What do you mean? He called himself a Youtuber only a few days ago?

    He uploaded a video to twitter yesterday saying the Furys had been dodging his calls about the offer so I imagine that was off the table due to that.

    Jake Paul didn’t have a single 10-8 round for me, and that’s including the knock down round at the end.

    Imagine paying £40 for that. Awful. Jake Paul literally buying his way into boxing fights.

    How the **** was that a split decision.
    Fury won that hands down.
    Was it the USA referee that gave it Jake Paul ?????
