Jake Paul has made an offer to fight Tommy Fury without his training team as a potential showdown draws nearer.
Paul and Fury have been in talks for several weeks over a renewed rivalry which would take place nine months on from their previously scheduled December meeting. The British star was forced to withdraw from the clash after suffering a broken rib and chest infection, instead leaving Paul to fight Tyron Woodley in a rematch.
Fresh doubts were cast over a potential meeting this summer after Fury's father John appeared to confirm neither him or heavyweight champion Tyson would be able to man the star's corner on August 6. Paul has responded to the fresh doubts in a scathing video rant on Twitter, where he said: “What’s the excuse? ‘Oh I can’t come and I can’t do it because my dad can’t be there with me during the fight. Tommy, your dad has been banned from the United States for 15 years.
