Tommy Fury addresses a possible Jake Paul Rematch

Key things

  • Tommy Fury is open to a 12-round rematch with Jake Paul, but requires serious negotiations.
  • Fury had previously defeated Paul and KSI, confirming his dominance in YouTuber boxing.
  • Despite the ongoing exchange on social media, Jake Paul has yet to publicly respond to Fury's suggestion of a rematch.



Tommy Fury replied to the previous one YouTube content creator Jake Paul's suggestion of a 12-round rematch, saying he was open to the idea of ​​there being a “serious” plan. In February 2023, Fury handed Jake Paul his first career loss, ending the former YouTube creator's undefeated streak. While Paul was able to take down Fury late in the fight, it wasn't enough to secure the win.

Since then, Fury has added another major win to his resume, defeating KSI and earning the title of YouTuber Boxing King. While he was originally scheduled to face former UFC fighter Darren Till in his next bout, the bout was called off when Till withdrew. Following this development, Paul wasted no time setting out his terms for a potential rematch, stating that he would only agree if Fury adopted a 12-round format instead of the original eight rounds. Now, Fury has addressed Jake Paul's proposal and expressed his willingness to consider it – provided the YouTuber-turned-boxer is “serious” about making it happen.

I just wanted to come out here and say that no one runs away from this fight.” Fury continued by saying, “I beat you once before, I gave you your first loss. I can give you a second loss, no problem, but let's talk serious numbers on the phone.”

Former Love Island the star went on to say that Jake knows where to find him and encouraged him to “get in touch” directly rather than making offers through other channels. “It's that easy. I can come back in a year and beat you. If you want to fight, let's talk serious numbers, you know where I stand,” he added. However, Jake Paul has yet to respond to Fury's latest comments.


Tommy Fury and Jake Paul's rivalry stems from their rise together in the boxing world, fueled by clashing on social media and competing in the ring. Their feud began in 2021 when both expressed interest in a fight and traded barbs online. Originally scheduled for December 2021, the bout was postponed due to Fury's injury and illness, before being postponed again in August 2022 due to visa issues. The long-awaited fight finally took place on February 26, 2023 in Saudi Arabia, where Fury won by split decision, handing Paul his first professional loss despite a late knockout of Paul in the eighth round. Their feud has only grown due to their constant back-and-forth on social media, with both taking shots at each other for various reasons.


Fury's comments follow Jake Paul's recent unanimous decision win over Mike Tyson last month on Netflix, which has sparked growing speculation about Paul's next opponent. In addition to Fury, Ryan Garcia also challenged Jake Paul. The highly-anticipated clash between Paul and Tyson faced notable issues, with Netflix viewers dealing with technical glitches, including blackouts and poor video quality during the broadcast. Despite these setbacks, Paul entered the fight with a professional record of 10-1, his only loss coming earlier this year against Tommy Fury.
