Jake Paul explains details of phone call with Tommy Fury over rematch

Jake Paul has accused Tommy Fury of pricing himself out of their rematch whilst revealing details of their phone conversation.

YouTuber-turned-boxer Paul suffered the first defeat of his boxing career in February when he was beaten by Love Island star Fury in Saudi Arabia. Paul has since returned to winning ways by outclassing UFC legend Nate Diaz in August and knocking out Andre August earlier this month.

Fury beat Paul's bitter rival KSI in October and has since been called out for a rematch by Paul, who recently tweeted: "Had a call with Tommy and his dad John about a month ago. It was clear their main concern was money and not about actually getting the fight done. After offering him the largest guarantee on the biggest stage he’d ever receive they have gone silent. I smell fear."

"Real fighting man would jump at the chance to make his biggest payday ever and actually live up to his claim that he’s going to KO me. Now calling out my brother and clubbing with Chris Brown in Dubai lol. Get it together fam." Paul's brother Logan fought on the undercard of Fury's win against KSI as he beat Conor McGregor's training partner Dillon Danis by disqualification.

Logan is seemingly done with boxing and will focus on his WWE career for the foreseeable future, but that didn't stop Fury from calling him out for a fight. Fury pondered a return to professional boxing before beating KSI but is now sticking around in the influencer scene as he looks to bank himself another huge payday.

"If Logan Paul wants some, he can get some. "I don't even think about men like Logan Paul. I'm the type of guy to go down and fight Logan Paul after 20 pints of beer, he's not a fighter. Jake on the other hand, he prepares well and he wants it. Logan is a wrestler, YouTuber and actor. Logan doesn't want to fight me because he doesn't want a death wish," Fury told SportBible.

"How can you not say I'm the best in that scene? I don't even want to be in that scene, but I'm not done with it actually. It's very nice and lucrative but in terms of all the crap that comes with it, I'm not about that. You've seen me in the build-up to these fights, I'm not interested in it."
