The YouTuber-turned-boxer faced the solitary loss of his career against Tyson Fury's brother Tommy Fury in their superstar battle in Saudi Arabia last year. While Fury has made unwanted headlines for his breakup with Molly-Mae Hague, Paul is determined to get a rematch. Despite Fury's denial of the cheating allegations, Paul took the opportunity to mock his rival as the pair announced their split. Paul took a shot at his Fury when he was asked about one word that comes to when he thinks about Tommy Fury.
Jake Paul gave a one-word answer to the Daily Mail and said “Single”.

Since his controversial victory over KSI in October, Fury has not fought as he underwent a hand surgery. According to the organizers, the fight was a huge success, selling more than one million pay-per-view tickets. The Misfits Boxing promotion of KSI put on the event, which was their largest since they started in 2022. Misfits homes to celebrity-style crossover fights inviting stars of the virtual entertainment, television, boxing, and MMA world.
Paul's jibe at Misfits
Jake Paul, who is 10-1, accepts he has outperformed that norm of the contest while taking a subtle jibe at Misfits. He said "Honestly, the other fighters aren't improving, and I think people are tired of seeing the s*** punches and it just looks sloppy. Now that they're fans of the sport, I think they want to see like, more real, higher level skill. So it's definitely dying out."
Paul is all set to make his return to the Boxing ring with the fight against legendary Mike Tyson, who is currently 58 on November 15 in Las Vegas. This fight is being criticised due to the three-decade age difference between the two fighters. The fight was previously postponed due to Tyson facing some health issues. There is a lot of hype around this fight along with massive criticism. Former UFC Heavyweight Champion Francis Ngannou who had trained under Mike Tyson for his MMA to Boxing transition believes that even at this age Iron Mike will beat Jake Paul
