Tommy Fury says Jake Paul will ‘NEVER step foot in a boxing ring’ again after fight and vows to ’emphatically’ KO rival
TOMMY FURY said Jake Paul will “NEVER step foot in a boxing ring ever again” after he “emphatically” knocks him out.
The celebrity boxing pair have announced the latest rescheduling of their grudge match, on February 26 in Saudi Arabia.

Fury, 23, becomes the first opponent Paul, 24, will face with a recognised professional boxing record.
And he vowed to be the last by burying the YouTube star’s career as a prizefighter in the Diriyah desert.
Fury told Queensberry Promotions: “Enjoy your last training camp.
“Pay everybody a bit more, you know, ‘Thanks for the good times on the way,’ because you’re gonna be kissing the canvas, and you’ll never step foot in a boxing ring ever again.”
The pay-per-view bout has been billed The Truth as the two look to finally settle their score in the ring.
And Fury said: “The truth is Jake Paul will be knocked out emphatically in a few rounds. This man can’t live with me.”
The brother of heavyweight champion Tyson, 34, was forced to pull out twice before due a rib injury and US visa issue.
But he looks to put the two years of bitter feuding in the past and end it all between the ropes.

Fury said: “My mind’s bulletproof. He can’t get into my mind, I’m training as hard as I’ve ever done before.
“But I’m training a lot different — I’ve brought different people in, I’m training in different places, training in different styles.
“He’s not gonna know what hit him. I’ve been there. I’ve seen all this before. I was beating better people than he last fought in my amateur days.”
