Jake Paul has claimed that his automatic rematch with Tommy Fury halted by his rival "getting a big head" during negotiations after their initial meeting.
Fury defeated Paul in the pair's highly-anticipated showdown at the Diriyah Arena in Saudi Arabia this February, but the American had an immediate rematch clause in his contract as the fight's A-Side. However, he has instead opted to face UFC legend Nate Diaz next, while it appears his rival will face KSI at some point this summer.
Paul had always claimed in the lead-up to his fight with Fury that he planned to face Diaz next, but it was expected that a loss had put a spanner in the works. However, he insists that he always wanted to go in that direction, even without getting his win back over Fury first.
