Hot preview of the fight between Jake Paul vs Tommy Fury

This Sunday the fight between the youtuber Jake Paul and the first active professional boxer to face, Tommy Fury. The combat suffered some cancellations, but what did not stop were the promotional actions. The evening will be this Sunday in Riyadh and both contestants are already in Saudi Arabia and had a very hot preview at the press conference. In the event that the influencer wins, he will get a place in the cruiserweight ranking of the World Boxing Council (WBC).

The show started with each other’s challenging comments and responses. For example, the American Paul was the one who put pepper on him first and then the Englishman, half-brother of Tyson Fury, the world heavyweight champion, responded to every threat from the Cleveland native.

In an interview with MMA FightingThe man from Manchester stated that “I’ve been in this boxing game for a long time and I saw people who don’t say a word and destroy you in 30 seconds. The people you should be afraid of don’t say anything.”

“The ones who talk a lot in the place are always the most insecure, especially in the case of Jake Paul. Definitely It won’t go past four rounds. When it’s over in one or two I’m not going to be surprised,” she added.

But Paul arrived in the Middle East motivated as he won all eight of his fights, despite getting them against non-bred challengers, such as a fellow influencer, a former NBA basketball player and three mixed martial arts fighters. Since 2018 when the blond and bearded was raised, it is on the rise.

It was so that in the previous press conference the North American made a challenging proposal to the British, who picked up the glove and reacted. “I think we make a deal then, since you are so confident. If you win, I’ll pay you double what I’m already paying you,” Paul asked Fury. “But if I win, I take everything I’m paying you for,” he added.

“Deal or no deal, since you’re so confident?” he repeated to Fury, who told him, “why are you going to get up like you want to do something? Sit down again. Sit down again.” Paul insisted that Tommy take on his proposal and asked him twice to answer his question.

It was there that Fury’s father (John) reacted and after looking at Paul with a sour face, he yelled at him, “you have a deal. All or nothing. All or nothing ”and he told her three times,“ you have it ”. At that moment the opponents closed in and when Tommy threw his right fist at him at mid-height, Jake took it to shake his hand. That squeeze lasted centuries and then they sat down again.

Paul then doubled down and told Fury, “You know what’s funny, Tommy, your dad took the deal before you did. Your dad”.

To try to lower the spirits, guards with the typical Arab attire and some with sunglasses despite the fact that it was in a closed place, approached the contestants. All in a cinematographic setting that had a luxury guest like the boxing legend and former world heavyweight champion, Mike Tyson.

Later it was time for the promotional photos, the iconic face to face. Almost stuck together, both continued to challenge each other with ironic smiles and they will have promised each other their triumph as quickly as possible.

The truth will be known on Sunday from 4:00 p.m. in Argentina. The bout is scheduled for eight rounds and there is a rematch clause in the event contract. It will be the great opportunity that Paul has been looking for, because if he wins he will enter the WBC ranking and his boxing career would stop being just a show.
