Jake Paul, over the past 11 months, has been a prime face of the media for his activities inside and outside the boxing vertical. Knowingly or unknowingly, the YouTuber turned boxer hits the right chord in rolling out statements and captivating everyone’s attention around himself.

These days, he’s in the news regarding a potential fight booking against Tommy Fury. After he fought in August, fans want ‘The Problem Child’ to test his prowess against a skilled pro-boxer. That said, the young gun already had a beef with Tyson Fury’s younger brother. Hence, his team got in touch with ‘TNT’s corner to book a fight.

Fury, 22, is undefeated in his professional boxing career with 7 wins (4 T/KO). He possesses an orthodox fighting stance and has the ability to annihilate his opponents.

‘TNT’ struggled a bit in his last performance against Anthony Taylor. The duo squared off on the Paul vs Woodley card, wherein ‘TNT’ failed to achieve a knockout win over the novice Taylor. However, this doesn’t take away his ability to finish fights with one swing.

In comparison to Jake Paul, he’s a much more mature fighter. On top of that, he has only battled pro-boxers, unlike ‘The Problem Child’ who has fought YouTubers and MMA stars. Hence, the British sensation, at least on paper, is a sure-shot threat to his YouTuber foe. ‘TNT’ is not a weak opponent for the Ohio native by any means.
