After Tommy Fury stated that it would be a “death wish” for Logan Paul to box with him, “The Maverick” remarked that the British professional boxer is running from his younger brother Jake Paul instead. Notably, Tommy Fury has already beaten Jake Paul by a split decision in a cruiserweight professional crossover boxing match earlier this year.

At the Diriyah Arena in Diriyah, Saudi Arabia, Tommy Fury got the better of the American YouTuber-turned-boxer Jake Paul in an eight-round boxing extravaganza on February 26, 2023. The judges scored the contest 74–75, 76–73, and 76–73 in favor of Fury against Jake, which was witnessed by more than 800,000 people on PPV
Recently, Tommy Fury revealed that he is staying with Influencer Boxing before launching a scathing attack on Logan Paul. Apart from refusing to call Logan a fighter, Fury was sure that “The Maverick” was not going to fight him because it was like a “death wish.”
It led to Logan Paul taking to his official X account to fire back at Tommy Fury with a post that read, “Why is this Ken doll calling ME out, a wrestler when I know for a fact my 8-1 boxing brother @jakepaul just offered him the most money he’s ever been paid to fight? what you running from Tommy?”
Jake Paul also sent out a post on X, talking about how he had offered Tommy Fury a “largest guarantee on the big stage,” but he has gone silent since then. He said, “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.”
