It was a double or nothing offer. Paul still would've made atleast the same, probably more, as Fury even if he lost should the offer have been accepted. Paul would not offer and agree to a winner takes all offer.

Yeh, the offer meant Paul gets paid regardless, but Fury would have had to win to get any purse.

100% what sort of idiot would punt basically their net worth, can't believe people are having a go at him for not signing, fcuk what John says, the guy spouts bollox all day long.

Does anyone know of a fight where there has actually been a winner take all contract that was fulfilled?

In modern times? No.

And how many of the suckers on here paid for it Listening to one of the commentators of talk sport say he paid £20 and was quite disappointed, What did people expect from what was basically a novice vs a white Collar fighter? Barera Moralez

16 pages on this crap yall are absolute losses.

Tommy shouldn’t have considered the offer for even a millisecond.

Win or lose, he had secured his families future.

lets get back to the 2 pages of womans boxing or misfits card.

Just got round to watching the fight in full. I thought Tommy boxed well. Paul is very strong and heavy handed and I thought Tommy showed a good chin, as he took a couple of big shots in there.

Really good jab. He had a game plan and, despite the pressure he will have been under, stuck to it and got a well deserved win.

You joking it was a novice pro against a beginner and he still could'nt put him away

'We had a deal mate, a handshake': Angry John Fury demands Jake Paul honors his 'All-or-Nothing' bet with Tommy Fury after split-decision defeat... after the American boasted about earning $30MILLION from the fight

Taking to his Instagram story, John addressed 'Jake Paul and family,' saying he was 'back on business' after returning home from the bout.

'Good morning world, Jake Paul and family,' the 58-year-old began. 'Back home, well rested, hence back on business.

'Jake, you know what I'm gonna do. We had a deal mate, we had a handshake. We said we'd box for free if we got defeated...'

The video cut off midway through John's sentence but it seemed he expected Paul to also hold up his end of the bargain, despite Tommy's failure to put a signature on the contract.

I know where you are coming from and it seems to reflect the unusual times that we live in, where two novices are headlining a huge global event.

Had the fight being further down a big bill, I would have said that Tommy boxed pretty well. Paul, for all his limitations, is a tough handful for a novice boxer because of his strength, power and confidence in himself. That it was on such a big occasion, where Tommy must have been feeling he pressure, makes me think it was a good result for him. I think he will have got a lot out of it and it will be interesting if he is able to make some adjustments and stop Paul in the rematch.

I also think he did well, given the pressure.

Imagine being Tyson Fury’s brother and having John Fury cheerleading for you - goading your opponent and saying you can’t come home when you lose.

There is every chance he didn’t have absolute faith in his own ability, but still went through with it and stuck to a gameplan that actually paid off.

He is not a talented boxer, but he topped a bill in front of millions and must have been petrified of losing to a gobshite novice and sullying the family name. No wonder he cried.

The best post on this topic by far

Win or lose, he got paid millions more than his value. Dont simp for Tommy too hard fellas. He's had it off.

He'll probably go and earn double he did for this fight for fighting the other big youtuber now.

Was Vada allowed in the building near Tommy or had his dad barred them .

Jake Paul claims over 500k buys and counting

Paul explained: “I guess the silver lining is that the pay-per-views are off the f***ing charts, probably going to be the biggest fight of the year.

“It’s going to be hard to contend with, maybe [Ryan] Garcia and [Gervonta] Davis.”

Logan asked: “No way, what are the numbers?”

Paul continued: “It’s probably coming in at, like, over half a million buys, but still totalling everything.

“So the business is great, obviously there’s still so many names out there for me to fight.

That would be $25m before deductions. That’s just the US. Was obviously cheaper in the UK but also primetime.

Well credit where credits due , Jake Paul i had never heard of him , but the last couple of years i did , but even though i knew the name and knew the face , at least think i did either him or his brother look the same to me , well i knew the name i was told he was a famous u tuber but still did'nt know what that was or what he's famous for , , even now i don't know could'nt be bothered looking him up on u tube , i had never seen him fight or spar or anything , just knew he was a famous guy just famous for being famous really bit like them kardishans , Tommy Fury well just a muscle bound steroid head famous because he's the brother of tYSON AND THE SON OF AN OBNOXIOUS LOUDMOUTH BULLY .and claims to be a profesional boxer with a resume my granny could of beat so between them there both famous for FOOOKALL .

Yet even though i would never buy a ppv of theres , and if you gave me tickets to watch them i would give them away and go to a local ameteur gym and watch better talent in a more competetive fight , I alas much to my shame , did take the trouble to go stream it and watch the comedy act , whats more times like now when i've got bugger all to do i'm on here posting about it .

So all in all i suppose hats off to them especeily Jake Paul rich young man good on him , and i still don't know what he does or has done on u tube whats more not interested , doubt i'll bother to watch the rematch though

Jake Paul saying the ppv numbers are incredible. Expecting 500,000 US buys alone. I think it did well here, too, and was ppv in a lot of countries across the world. I saw a lot of people moaning their firesticks had not worked for the fight. That usually happens with too much demand.

I’d be surprised if it did 500k buys in the US based on the time of the fight and how his more recent PPVs have supposedly done. I saw the interview where Jake referenced the 500k - wondered if that was U.K. and US combined.

I could easily see it having done 300k+ buys over here.
