Jake Paul started his boxing career a few years back and has been on a roll ever since. After securing four wins in his first four professional bouts, he is set to take on arguably his toughest challenge yet. However, he is extremely confident.

‘The Problem Child’ Paul thinks that Tommy Fury will crack under the pressure on the big stage. In a QnA-style video for his YouTube channel, Paul was asked if he thinks Tommy Fury is an easier fight than Tyron Woodley. “Tommy [Fury) is a great boxer, he’s undefeated, he’s got fast hands, he’s quick, he comes from a legendary bloodline, so long and so forth.”

“I just think that boy will crack under pressure…I’ve taken out everyone from the UK. Deji, Joe Weller, Gib, KSI is scared. He’s really next up on the list and we see how they are in fights, all of them have cracked. Once [he] gets on the big stage against me, he’s going to crack,” said Paul.

He then also answered the original question, saying Tommy Fury is an easier fight than Tyron Woodley and he feels he will knock him out. ‘TNT’ vs ‘The Problem Child’ will take place on the 18th of December in Tampa Bay, Florida.
