Jake Paul never fails to make it to the news headlines. Over the past 10 months, he has remained a favorite boxing personality in the media. On top of that, he has even elevated his boxing career by locking horns with some prime combat sports names. However, as the YouTuber turned boxer never faced a pro-boxer, fans lashed out at him for the same.
But ‘The Problem Child’ is on the brink of testing himself against a young pro-boxing gun, and that’s his biggest foe, Tommy Fury. A fight between these two recently got announced, and it’s set to take place on December 18. Citing that, many fans took it to Twitter to warn the Ohio native about Fury.
One fan wrote, “I wonder what Jake has in this contract to protect him”
