Tommy Fury got physical with Jake Paul in their final staredown before facing off Sunday in Diriyah, Saudi Arabia.
After stepping onto the scales they quickly became nose to nose. Fury then pushed Paul, before security arrived at the ceremonial weigh ins.
Paul, who weighed in at 183. 6 pounds, taunted Fury about not signing a contract to finalize a winner-take-all bet he issued at the event’s press conference. A hyped-up Fury, who clocked in at 184. 5, wasn’t hearing any of that and promised to knock out the YouTuber turned boxer.
“His Time is Up,” Fury said to Ray Flores, as Tyson Fury (heavyweight boxing champion) stood beside him with a big smile. “Tomorrow night, his time is up. Jake Paul will no longer be boxing. I’m going to put this man away inside four rounds.”
Paul wasn’t impressed by the younger Fury’s antics.
” That man is capping,” Paul stated. He’s getting hyped up and trying to be like his brother. All you people booing, you’re dumb as f***, too. Professional boxers are going down. It’s easy, it’s simple. It’s easy to be calm, collected, ready and available.
“He has never felt so happy. He’s shaking. His nerves are running throughout his body. He can’t stop moving. I’m chill. I’m a real killer. I don’t have to do all that acting s***. I’m a real f****** dog. Ohio is where I am from. I’m from Cleveland. A real dog.”
