Jake Paul has admitted he lost millions of dollars when Tommy Fury pulled out of their fight.
The YouTuber-turned-boxer went 5-0 by viciously knocking out Tyron Woodley in December, but he had been due to face Fury in a huge pay-per-view event. His Most Valuable Promotions, along with Showtime Boxing put up a large amount of money to promote the fight over four separate press conferences, and stacked the undercard with major bouts.
But just two weeks out from the grudge match, Fury broke his rib in training and was forced out of the fight with the injury. And while the Woodley fight was made to save the card, pay-per-view numbers suffered and the social media star's company lost a major night at the box office.
