Topic: [Boxing] Jake Paul vs Tommy Fury - February 26 in Saudi Arabia - page 15. (Read 1817 times)

I’m surprised on the odds given for Fury considering that he is an active pro boxer while most of Jake Paul previous opponent is not an active boxer or non boxer. Fury is the toughest opponent for Jake Paul to be honest despite most of his opponent is not that formidable. There’s a huge difference to fight a UFC fighter on boxing compared to an active boxer with a perfect record besides he is the younger of Tyson Fury which makes him a natural good boxer by blood.

I will take that 2.55 odds for him as an entertainment bet. I’m excited too if one of the Paul brothers will fight Salt Papi next. 

Well that will just be what they call a journeyman and if you look at the early records of pretty much all pro boxers you will see the same stuff even with the current superstars like Tyson and Wilder etc. They just take easy opponents early on to break fighters in and pad their record to make their 'unbeaten' status look better than it actually is. It's a wise thing to do really as it would be a bit silly for a fighter to start off against people he is unlikely to win against. Here's a video about 'padded'/unbeaten records: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZaJJ3TZe7UM


If they announce the third one I doubt Tommy will pull out again unless he gets an injury. First time was a broken rib and some illness related to it and the second time he literally just couldn't get into the US due to his brother's association with the Kinehan Cartel (which I thought was harsh as Tommy has nothing to do wit them). Tommy seems to really want this fight. It will be a life-changing some of money, grow his exposure even more and he seems to think it's an easy fight for him. Jake probably also feels the same and that's why I'm hyped for this fight. It's a challenge for both of them and there's a lot on the line for both of them. If Jake loses then it's no big deal. He will say he wasn't supposed to win against a Pro but if he wins then Fury is going to be embarrassed potentially out of the sport.

Then he should get a license to become a professional boxer and fight top-rated boxers he just wants money and popularity but he'll get nowhere  boxing with non-boxers, Tomy Fury is a real test because Tommy is a real professional boxer with an unbeaten record of 8-0 if Fury comes fully prepared and highly motivated to win he can end Jake Paul's winning streak, if the fight push one's zero will have to go.



He is still good at boxing but by signing up for MMA he wants to prove something I don't know if his training is really enough to be competitive in the MMA, he could be good in boxing but we have to see first if he can hold up in MMA.

Jake recently signed with PFL's MMA promotion.

Not certain if it can serve as a foundation for a successful business relationship. Jake Paul's pay per view numbers haven't been good since fighting Tyron Woodley.

It is also in question as to how long Jake has been training MMA. He wrestled in high school and trained a little with Jorge Masvidal a few years ago. Logan Paul has trained MMA with Paulo Costa and others. It is possible that Jake Paul has been training MMA for a few years by this point in time. Which is close to the bare minimum one would expect for a person to become borderline competent with the wrestling and grappling side of things.

It will be a big embarrassment for Tommy Fury if this fight will not push through again because he is backing out again, people have high expectations of Tommy Fury because he is 8-0 and he is the real test for Jake Paul because now he is fighting a real boxer. but I consider Jake Paul a better fighter of the two, he is getting better in every fight, the last one on Silva, who is considered a big test because Silva beat Chavez Jr.who is a real pro with a good record in the ring.
Let's hope this fight will finally happen this fight will be a confirmation that Paul really can take professional boxers.

How many times they will set this match up and even i am in the opinion that we wont be seeing this fight this time around as well, there should be a betline whether Tommy Fury would pull out of the fight  . Hope there is something written in the contract that Tommy Fury cannot pull out of the fight until it is a major injury or the wise move would be to have a back up plan if the fight did not go as planned.

Bocianski's ratio looks only good when you don't check who he fought.
 
He only fought locally and Tommy was his first fight abroad, so he's not really an experienced fighter. Many of his opponents had very bad stats. It doesn't really mean anything if you win against a guy who's 11-37 or 2-12 and those were the guys he was fighting. They were just there to inflate his score and get him better paid contracts.

Jake Paul wants to win against a big name and Fury is a big name, even if it's the weaker little brother.

A win-win situation for Tommy either way, then. Guy's obviously not born to be a boxer unlike his siblings and his father. Has a weak chin, doesn't have that fighter instinct, and punches weak and low for most of the time. If ever, he can use the money that he'll get from this fight (if it pushes through) to start a podcast or create videos for social media and just chase stardom. After all he already has the experience in the entertainment industry and he can just use this fight as a leverage to further just that.

I mean, just look at his past opponents. One guy even has 100+ losses with only 10+ wins! How can you even call that a proper and respectable win?

I have this feeling that he will pull out again, or he will be motivated because of his girlfriend's condition, some boxers are motivated to fight even when their wives or girlfriends are dues, they want to prove something that they are successful when their baby comes out.
Jake Paul is on the winning run and I don't see him losing to a fighter like Tommy Fury, Tommy is not Tyson Fury he is not even half of his power and skill, I just hope he is man enough to finally face Jake Paul even if he has slim chance of winning.

I don't think this fight has been confirmed yet just media speculation. Maybe they know something the public doesn't as it's hard to keep the rumours of these events from spreading once the ball is rolling and contracts are signed but there's nothing on Jake's or Tommy social media pages and those will be the first places to look for confirmation. The fight is almost a month away which seems quite soon as well. Have they both been in camp?


Tommy has a pretty much standard padded record for an up-and-comer. You don't go into the big fights without building yourself up first just like Jake has been doing. Personally I think this is a pretty well rounded fight and the biggest test for both of them. I don't see a knock-out and my money is on it going the distance. The biggest thing for me is it could end Tommy's boxing career before it's even started if he loses. I'm sure he's getting a life changing amount of money and will just pivot into being a social media star or something so it won't be too much of a loss but that embarrassment of losing to a YouTuber will certainly sting and it will never leave him.

I hope this fight will still take place on the third attempt, some kind of uncontrollable desire on the part of Jake Paul to fight Tommy Fury, whose last fight was already quite a long time ago in April 2022 when he won on points against Daniel Botsyansky.

Yes, I think Jake will win the fight because he is superior in fighting skills and has a lot of experience so he can easily beat his opponent. What's more, what he will be fighting against is Tommy, who is just an ordinary fighter.
So it's not difficult for Jake to finish the fight with an easy and short victory.
For betting, there will definitely be more bettors who place their bets on Jake and this is a good opportunity for us if we want to bet on this fight.

No hope for Jake Paul vs Nate Diaz already, for the first half of this year. Maybe Paul vs Diaz will happen. Too bad for Tommy he is matched up to Jake who always makes sure he wins the fight.


Rumor has it that Tommy isn't really interested in boxing but because his family is known to be in boxing, he just got into it even without ring IQ nor chin. But he had won 8 fights which is not to ignore. If he puts his heart into it, I think he may give a good fight.

I wouldn't say Tommy is someone whom can consider a "capable" boxer because of his record. Most of his wins are against mediocre fighters at best with very poor win-loss ratio with the exception of Daniel Bocianski. I think this fight, we know which way it will go: obviously Jake's. Seeing Tommy's previous fights, he doesn't really focus on the defense and always go to the offense instead, so that's one department that he needs to work on as Jake is slowly becoming a somewhat well-rounded boxer through his previous bouts.

Wouldn’t surprise me if Fury pulls out again. His girlfriend is due to have her baby soon, not that he needs an excuse to run away from a fight
