YouTuber turned boxer Jake Paul has grabbed the headlines in the sport for the past couple of months. Thanks to his eccentric behavior and the immense criticism he has received, ‘The Problem Child’ has been the talk of boxing.
One of the biggest talking points over the past few weeks has been his potential bout with Tommy Fury. The brother of Tyson Fury previously got into an ugly verbal battle with Paul and also lashed out at him. And the YouTuber has now responded to Fury’s call-out.

The 3-0 boxer took to his Instagram story to address the situation, and iFL TV was quick to upload it on YouTube. Paul said, “The desperation is seeping through the pores of the Fury family. It’s quite embarrassing. The heavyweight champion of the world is on Instagram, talking about Jake Paul, begging me to fight his brother.”
