Jake Paul will be at Tommy Fury’s fight in Dubai on November 13 after again trolling his rival over the pair’s two failed bouts. Back in December, after a prolonged verbal feud and a backstage clash at a show in Cleveland, the pair were set to finally settle their differences with a long-awaited bout.
But just weeks beforehand, Love Island star Fury withdrew from the bout, citing a broken rib and bacterial infection. In his place, UFC icon Tyron Woodley stepped in at short notice, only to be handed a second straight defeat at the hands of the YouTuber following a savage KO finish.
The grudge match was then rearranged for August this year, but again fell through after Fury was prevented from flying to the US. Despite claiming he did not know the reasoning, by that point it was already known that brother Tyson and father John faced the same sanctions for the family’s strong links with crime boss Daniel Kinahan.
Now Fury, 23, will be back in the squared circle next Sunday when he faces Paul Bamba on the undercard of the Floyd Mayweather v Deji exhibition bout. And it’s been revealed that Paul, 25, will be at the Coca Cola Arena himself – just in case it seems.
