'Pathetic' Tyson Fury tells Jake Paul why he needs to fight Tommy Fury
15.02.2022 - 13:29 / manchestereveningnews.co.uk
Tyson Fury has told Jake Paul that he needs to fight Tommy Fury to get his viewing figures up after a disappointing PPV sales number following his last fight.
Paul was due to face-off against Fury in December until the Manchester fighter was forced to pull out of the bout due to a broken rib and bacterial chest infection.
Paul would instead face a rematch against Tyron Woodley, securing a knockout win, and has questioned the legitimacy of Fury's injury ever since.
His knockout was a good highlight for his career, setting up the overhand right to KO the former UFC champion Woodley.
But whilst it was a good night for his professional record, it wasn't so good business-wise.
Paul admitted that his rematch with Woodley was 'not my best business night', after reportedly only selling 60,000 pay per views.
He said: "Not my best business night. But remember, everyone wanted to see me vs. [Tommy] Fury and that’s what we sold."
Fury has regularly pushed for the cancelled bout to be rescheduled, criticising his win over Woodley, Paul has so far refused to do so - with no talks currently being held.
Paul has stated he plans to take some time away from boxing, before potentially returning to the ring later this year.
And Tommy's older half-brother, Tyson, has stated why Paul must face Tommy.
Fury said: "When he (Tommy) gets over his injury he'll be back boxing. Hopefully he gets the fights he wants.
"It's quite clear to see that Jake Paul needs Tommy Fury.
"Jake Paul done just 60,000 buys against his last opponent, which is pathetic.
"If he'd have fought Tommy, it would have been in the millions.
"So we know who needs who.
"Tommy wants to get it back on, but I don't think they fancy it."
Fury spoke to journalist Ariel Helwani
