Jake Paul is still in plans to fight Tommy Fury in February despite their past two fight bookings falling through.
Paul was first scheduled to take on Love Island star Fury last December, but the Brit pulled out of the fight due to a bacterial infection and broken rib. 'The Problem Child' knocked out short-notice replacement Tyron Woodley in their rematch after previously beating the ex-UFC champion three months earlier. The win set up a rescheduled fight with Fury that was supposed to take place in New York last month, but he again withdrew due to travel issues.
UFC legend Anderson Silva will serve as the opponent for Paul's sixth professional fight on October 29, so Paul will need to get past the crafty Brazilian before thinking about a rescheduled fight with Fury. The American briefly spoke with Fury on FaceTime last weekend as the pair agreed to fight in February.
