Two judges scored the bout 76-73 in his favour with one going 75-74 to Paul, who scored a knockdown in the eighth and final round.
Fury was floored with just minutes to go with a jab, but seemed to lose his balance more than anything else.
The tearful 23-year-old star dedicated the win to his girlfriend Molly-Mae Hague and newborn baby daughter Bambi.
