In the latest episode of the feud between Jake Paul and Tommy Fury, the infamous YouTuber has not only set a deadline for his fight against the reality TV star, but he also revealed three potential opponents he could face if the Brit doesn’t show.
Jake Paul sets deadline for Tommy Fury fight
According to comments made by Jake Paul, Tommy Fury has a deadline by which he must resolve his visa problems after he was denied entry to the United States before their planned press conference on Wednesday last week. Tommy who is the younger brother of world heavyweight champion Tyson Fury, had an agreement to fight Paul at Madison Square Garden on August 6. This of course, was after he withdrew from a fight that was previously scheduled for last December. At the time Fury cited illness and a broken rib as the reason why he could not compete. Fight fans will also recall Fury’s video announcement last week when he explained that his Visa was the reason he could not enter the U.S.

It now seems, however, that Paul has had enough of the apparent games that Fury is playing ahead of their bout and with that has issued the date of Wednesday, July 6th as a deadline. Interestingly, Paul also went on to declare that he intends to fight regardless of whether Fury is allowed to enter the U.S.A. or not.
