During the conversation, the reporter asked Fury about his thoughts on fighting Paul. He asked, “Do you think that the fight with Jake Paul is something that you still want to approach? Or do you want to continue fighting on cards like this?”

In response, Fury mentioned that he is letting things take their course. He said, “You know, if the Jake Paul fight comes, it comes. You know that’s my mindset on that.”

He even mentioned that Paul would be an easy opponent, by saying, “You know I don’t need to train to beat him. He’s an easy touch.”

Fury goes on to say that if Paul wants to fight, it can be set with a single phone call. But, his current focus is on Saturday night, and only after that will he address ‘the Pauls of the world.’

The reporter then asked Fury if Paul would be a step below his current opponent.

In response, he replied, “100 percent you know, Jake Paul wouldn’t beat this guy I’m going to fight on Saturday. This guy that I fight on Saturday will slap Jake, won’t be over and around, because he’s an actual boxer.”
