“You Can’t Just Walk in an Embassy”: Promoter Frank Warren Provides Update on Tommy Fury as Jake Paul Gives an Ultimatum

Jake Paul has given a deadline to his rival, Tommy Fury, amid an odd scenario. He warned the ‘Love Island’ actor that if he doesn’t make it to the US before Wednesday, he would go for other opponents who are knocking on his door to replace him.

Though it’s hard for Fury to match the demands of ‘The Problem Child’, it’s not impossible. Fury’s promoter, Frank Warren, has again hinted at the chances of the highly anticipated bout happening on August 6 at Madison Square Garden, New York.

In an exclusive interview with the SecondsOut, Warren told, “It hasn’t. He’s you know it’s still to be sorted out and we’re working on trying to get it done.”

Reflecting on Paul’s part, Warren admitted that he was trying his best. As a promoter, he understood why ‘The Problem Child’ was so impatient? Putting all the blame on the unfortunate situation, Warren praised Paul. He claimed that the Ohio-based boxer and promoter and his team have been brilliant throughout the entire process.

What did Frank Warren say about the possibility of Jake Paul vs Tommy Fury?

According to Warren, although Fury was trying his best, the situation was out of his hand. He said, “Tommy went to the airport to travel. He didn’t go to the airport to be turned back and now we’re trying to resolve it but it’s you know it’s not as you can’t just walk in an embassy. You’ve got to make the appointments and stuff so at the moment, we’re in a position we’re in and hopefully, it will get resolved. If it doesn’t they’ll move on and maybe we can revisit again in the autumn.”

Initially, Tommy Fury was most likely to face his rival in December 2021. However, due to injury, he was forced to pull out of the fight at the last moment. Then, the 25-year-old Youtuber turned boxer fought Tyron Woodley as Fury’s replacement. Paul is again facing a similar problem, as Fury is not permitted to enter the US. So the Ohio-based boxer has again claimed that he has three opponents in a row to replace Fury again.
