Paul, a YouTube superstar, has been accused of insisting on provisions in his past fight contracts that prohibited his opponents from knocking him out. Despite denying the allegations, the matter was again brought up at their conference by his next opponent.
Speaking about Jake Paul allegedly “rigging” his boxing contracts, Tommy Fury said:
Dillon Danis, an MMA fighter and Conor McGregor’s teammate, recently claimed that the contract Tyron Woodley signed for his fight against Jake Paul prevented Woodley from knocking ‘The Problem Child’ out.
Paul, in his earlier matches, defeated fellow YouTuber AnEsonGib, retired basketballer Nate Robinson, retired mixed martial artist Ben Askren and former UFC welterweight champion Tyron Woodley.
However, with Tommy Fury, who has a 7-0 record as a professional boxer, Paul can expect a tougher fight.
