YouTuber-turned-boxer Jake Paul has once again agreed to face professional pugilist Tommy Fury but has attached a deadline for a contract to be signed.
Paul, a former Disney star, has gone 6-0 inside the ring since pursuing a once-unlikely career in combat sports. Most recently, “The Problem Child” defeated former UFC middleweight champion and MMA GOAT contender Anderson Silva in the headliner of a Showtimepay-per-view.
Following his victory in Arizona last month, Paul called out another mixed martial arts veteran in [Nate Diaz, who recently departed the UFC and was in attendance at the Desert Diamond Arena.
But just weeks later, an old rivalry was sparked back up in Abu Dhabi. This past weekend, British boxer Tommy Fury, half-brother of heavyweight champion Tyson, returned to action at a Global Titans event, facing Rolly Lambert in an exhibition contest.
After the bout, Fury and his shirtless father exchanged words with Paul, who was on commentary ringside for the contest.
