Jake Paul desperately attempted to salvage his doomed fight with Tommy Fury, even sending the Brit a private message to help push the visa process along.
Fury was unable to travel to America due to an issue with his visa, and as such was forced to once again pull out of a contracted fight with Paul. The duo were going to headline Madison Square Garden, but Paul will now instead face Hasim Rahman Jr at the famed New York City venue.
The American's team, which includes his business partner and former UFC CFO Nakisa Bidarian, questioned Fury's story about visa problems. And they spoke with some high-ranking lawyers in an effort to secure him an Embassy appointment and a possibly expedited visa.
