Tommy Fury has reignited one of boxing’s most talked-about rivalries with a fiery post-fight rant aimed squarely at Jake Paul, calling the YouTuber-turned-boxer a “b****” and promising to “flatten him” in their highly anticipated rematch.
The war of words exploded after Fury’s latest win on Saturday night, where he secured a unanimous decision victory over seasoned veteran KSI in a high-profile bout in Manchester. While the fight itself showcased Fury’s technical growth and calm under pressure, it was his explosive post-fight interview that stole the show — and sent shockwaves across the internet.
Speaking to reporters immediately after the win, a visibly charged-up Fury didn’t mince words when asked about Jake Paul.
“Jake Paul’s a b****, and he knows it,” Fury shouted, pointing into the camera. “He ran his mouth after our first fight, acting like he won something. Next time, I’m not leaving it to the judges — I’ll flatten him in round two. That’s a promise.”
The first clash between Fury and Paul took place in February 2023 in Saudi Arabia, where Fury won by split decision in a closely contested match that left fans clamoring for a rematch. The result was hotly debated, with Paul claiming he had done enough to win, while Fury insisted he had “exposed the fraud.”
Since then, the tension between the two has simmered just below the surface — until now.
The Bad Blood Continues
The renewed feud isn’t just about pride. Fury believes Jake Paul has undermined legitimate boxers and turned the sport into a circus.
“He walks around pretending to be a fighter, but he hasn’t put in the work,” Fury said during the post-fight press conference. “I grew up in a family of fighters. This isn’t YouTube — it’s war. And next time, I’m going to show him what a real boxer does.”
Jake Paul wasted no time in responding, taking to X (formerly Twitter) within minutes of Fury’s comments.
“Tommy talking tough after beating a YouTuber. Cute. Let’s run it back. This time, no dancing — just fists,” Paul tweeted, throwing gasoline on an already raging fire.
Fans and Fighters React
The boxing community and fans online quickly picked sides, with hashtags like #FuryVsPaul2 and #TommyFlattensJake trending on Twitter within hours. Former champions and current stars weighed in, with opinions split on whether Fury has what it takes to deliver the knockout he’s promising.
“This is the fight boxing needs right now — a real grudge match,” said former cruiserweight champ Tony Bellew. “Love him or hate him, Jake Paul brings eyes to the sport. But Tommy’s got the pedigree. He just needs to prove he can finish the job.”
Promoters are already circling. Rumors suggest that Saudi Arabia or Las Vegas could be the destination for the rematch, with a potential date in late 2025. Sources close to both camps confirm that preliminary negotiations are underway.
Can Fury Deliver a Knockout?
Despite his victory over Paul, Fury has yet to score a definitive knockout in a marquee bout. Critics argue that while he has the fundamentals, he lacks the power and killer instinct to finish elite opponents.
But Fury is determined to change that narrative.
“I’ve been too nice, too respectful,” he said. “That ends now. I’m coming for blood. Jake won’t hear the final bell next time.”
Whether it’s showmanship or genuine rage, one thing’s certain: the Fury-Paul rivalry is far from over — and the next chapter promises to be even more explosive than the last.
Stay tuned — boxing’s most viral feud is about to reach a whole new level.
