Boxing fans backing Jake Paul vs Tommy Fury to be a DRAW ahead of grudge fight

More boxing fans are backing Jake Paul's clash with Tommy Fury to end in a draw than they are for the YouTuber to win.

Paul is a slight bookies' favourite to beat Fury, likely owed to his activity in the last few years and the strength of his CV having knocked out and dropped the likes of Anderson Silva and Tyron Woodley. The Brit has generally struggled to get rid of journeymen, although he has been boxing considerably longer and his rival has yet to face a legitimate boxer even at that low level.

Odds on a draw are priced at 12/1 with Ladbrokes, and more fans have taken that action than have supported the YouTuber to live up to his slight favourite tag. A massive 55 per cent of bettors have picked Fury, while 25 per cent have chosen a draw leaving just 20 per cent who have gone for Paul.
