Jake Paul said, “I am using Tyson Fury to promote this fight. That’s the secret behind all of this. Like he is getting involved, he is using his platform. He is retweeting it, he is posting it.

The WBC champion has already asked his brother to change the surname if he fails to beat Jake Paul. Thus, the fight is successful on the major boxing scene.
