Jake Paul vs. Tommy Fury | BT PPV - 26 February 2023

Just watched this hasbulla on YouTube. Hilarious

[Ruthless-RKO]

Carl Frampton reckons Jake will win.

“I think that it’s a huge fight and if I’m being honest, I’d probably favor Jake Paul in the fight," said Frampton to Joe.co.uk.

“He carefully picked his opponents obviously and he’s not fought a boxer yet, but the first boxer he’s fighting is a guy who’s a relative novice in the grand scheme of things and who seems to have issues going more than four rounds.

“So I think that I would favor Jake Paul in that fight and then we hear him, as mad as it may sound, he’s beat a real boxer, although it’s Tommy Fury, he starts calling out Gervonta Davis, Canelo [Álvarez] it’s mental. But, yeah I’d favor him in the fight against Tommy Fury.”

Is he really calling out Gervonta Davis?? as good as the 4ft 1" Gervonta Davis is ...

I am looking forward to this but I am a big fan of celebrity boxing on Red Nose Day.

Jake Paul is a tough kid by any standards but I think Tommy Fury will outbox him to a points win.

I randomly rewatched one of those a year or so back when Ricky Gervais (I think just after season 1 of the office) fought Grant Bovey (Anthea Turner’s prick husband).

Gervais was trained by the Maloneys whilst Bovey was with Jim McDonnell. The stuff between Gervais and the Maloneys is really funny and it’s pretty crazy that Gervais did it given how much he’s gone on to achieve.

Gervais fought but I forget who and he won a really dodgy desicion and I think Bovey fought Bob Mortimer and Mortimer had a really good right hook on him but he kept out of the way too much to have won... I remember Ben Fogle beating up Riccccccccckay from Eastenders because Riccccccckay didn't do his roadwork and gassed after two rounds...

I think Bovey might have fought both Gervais and Mortimer...

NB: Mortimer fought Les Dennis! My memory is going...

I remember he fought Bovey as I worked with his wife for a couple of years so couldn’t help asking her about the fight.

Gervais just threw windmills the entire fight whilst Bovey boxed more but didn’t quite throw enough.

[peter barlow]

Any word of an undercard?

[maverick23]

Any word of an undercard?

Nothing confirmed.

Will almost certainly have Dubois on there in another mismatch and probably will have Amanda Serrano on there too.

Yeah was thinking similar mate. I guess Dubois isn't fighting Trevor Bryant. There was a story that Wilder might fightBryant on his comeback. The WBA route.

Disappointing no good fights for Dubois or Joyce to finish the year.

Paul vs Fury will take place in Tampa, Fla., and will reportedly also feature the boxing debut of 37-year-old former NBA star Deron Williams, who may face 38-year-old former NFL star Frank Gore.

This is actually pathetically depressing, Disney youtuber Vs Love Island celebrity on BT PPV I'm just going to pretend this shit doesn't exist any more fir my own mental health, the world is depressing enough for god's sake

[Ruthless-RKO]

[skanksta]

lol hasbullah, just saw this dude, 'social media stars' are getting more and more bizzare

yeah I had to google WTF is Hasbulla ?!

[stujones]

Fury really should be in a different league to Paul - not saying he is a genuine prospect - but in reality, Fury has been in an around boxing gyms since he was a pup. Surely experience alone should be enough against a raw novice.

Press Release

Seven-division world champion and current unified featherweight champion Amanda Serrano will return to the lightweight division when she faces current interim WBA Female 135-pound titleholder Miriam Gutiérrez in a 10-round lightweight bout that will be the co-feature of the SHOWTIME PPV event “One Will Fall,” headlined by Jake Paul vs. Tommy Fury facing off in an eight-round cruiserweight bout, on Saturday, December 18 live from AMALIE Arena in Tampa Bay.

Serrano, who is No. 3 in the pound-for-pound women’s rankings, will make her second appearance on SHOWTIME PPV as she meets Gutiérrez. Nicknamed “La Reina” (The Queen) and having a professional record of 14-1 with her only loss being to Katie Taylor, Gutiérrez’s dedication and passion for the sport have only grown stronger as she looks ahead to her 16th professional bout, facing Serrano, the Guinness World Record holder for most boxing world championships won in different weight classes by a female. For Serrano (41-1-1, 30 Ks), it has been extremely difficult to find competition willing to step into the ring with her due to her impressive record and knockout power. In August, Serrano joined the SHOWTIME PPV Paul vs. Woodley card as the co-main event and earned a unanimous decision over Yamileth Mercado to retain her WBC and WBO featherweight title belts.

Serrano will join Paul today, November 8, in Tampa Bay, at a press conference in the Budweiser Biergarten at AMALIE Arena beginning at 1 p.m. ET.

Titled #PaulFury: One Will Fall, the event is produced and presented by Most Valuable Promotions and SHOWTIME PPV and promoted in association with Tony and Bryce Holden of Holden Productions. The pay-per-view telecast begins live at 9 p.m. ET/6 p.m. PT, is produced and distributed by SHOWTIME PPV, and will feature other exciting, high-stakes professional boxing matches which will be announced in the coming weeks.

Tickets for the live event will be available for purchase on Wednesday, November 10 at www.amaliearena.com.

Puerto-Rican born and Brooklyn, New York raised, Serrano has become one of the most decorated fighters in women’s boxing history. Having recently signed with Jake Paul and Nakisa Bidarian’s Most Valuable Promotions, Serrano continues to make waves in her professional boxing career. The 33-year-old has won titles in every division between 115 and 140 pounds, earning belts in those two divisions just four months apart with fights in September 2018 and January 2019. Serrano also won the WBO featherweight world championship belt in a high-profile showdown against Heather Hardy in 2019 and recently became WBC champion with a knockout win over three-division world champion Daniela Bermudez. As an all-around athlete and dedicated fighter, Serrano also holds a professional MMA record of 2-0-1 with both wins coming by way of submission.

“I’ve been training 24/7 for as long as I can remember and because of my dedication to the sport, I consistently look to challenge myself,” said Serrano. “Miriam is an extremely tough opponent, with her only loss coming to one of the best pound-for-pound fighters in the world. I am looking forward to stepping in the ring with her and proving why I’m at the top of women’s boxing.”

Born in Torrejon de Ardoz, Spain, Gutiérrez started kickboxing and boxing at a young age. Following a year and a half of recovery from a horrific domestic violence incident at age 19, she began training with Jero Garcia and had her first amateur bout in 2009. Gutiérrez made her professional debut in 2017, winning by unanimous decision over Vanessa Caballero. Her 13th professional match against Keren Batiz resulted in an impressive win and the WBA title of Interim Lightweight Champion. She then met Katie Taylor on November 20, 2020 in a Lightweight unification bout where she suffered her first professional defeat in a competitive 10-round decision. Gutiérrez is a passionate advocate against domestic violence and in 2019 was elected to the City Council of Torrejon de Ardoz, where she works to champion the rights of women.

“Amanda Serrano is an icon in the sport and when I step into that ring on December 18, it will be a pivotal moment in my career. I respect what she does, but it’s a risk coming up to 135. I’ve been competing at this level for most of my career and the competition is tough,” said Gutiérrez. “I’m thankful to my team, my family and my promoter Ray Events Boxing for their support as I train for a night of pure boxing entertainment. I look forward to bringing a great victory back to Spain.”

#PaulFury: One Will Fall is the second live sporting event co-produced by Most Valuable Promotions, a company founded by Paul and Bidarian on the premise that content is king, and fighters are the content creators in combat sports. Paul and Bidarian serve as executive producers of the #PaulFury event.

What evidence is there that Fury has been in and around boxing gyms since he was a pup? he certainly hasn`t the amateur experience to prove it. As far as I have read, Tommy Fury only had 12 amateur fights .. you`d expect your average amateur boxer to get more than that within 2 years.

Tommy Fury is everything as novice as Jake Paul.
Frampton has probably called it right; Jake Paul will have chosen Tommy for his Fury name .. and his less than impressive boxing experience.

[stujones]

There are videos of Tommy in the gym in his early teens...way before the love island stuff. Might not have had the fights and perhaps his quest for fame got in the way...but hes definately grown up with the sport

Big John fury is his dad hey? I’m sure tommy would of been trained as a kid. But then when big John went to jail he probably took some pretty important years off.

Did he take years off though - he's only 22 now. He was 19 when he turned over and there are videos of him talking about his amateur fights at 14 and 15 on IFL (as in when he was 14 and 15). Without knowing too much about his background - looking at a young Fury he looked like a pretty big lad at 14/15 - might have been hard to match him or also he might not have been that good so they held him back. I see him as a boxer first and celebrity second - he was trying to box long before loved island. We don't know if he is any good at boxing, glimpses I have seen the answer is NO, but I think this is the first "proper" boxer Paul has faced.

Clearly Fury has not been mister dedicated to his art and I am not suggesting he is any great shakes - but from what I can see (and perhaps I am wrong) Paul did not step into a boxing gym until 2 and bit years ago. I half decent journeyman should beat Paul just purely on the experience factor. Obviously things like the number of rounds etc will have a factor.
