Tommy Fury pleads with Jake Paul not to cancel fight after missing deadline

Tommy Fury wants Jake Paul to move their fight to a neutral venue in a last-gasp attempt to rescue the doomed bout.

Paul announced earlier on Wednesday that he was terminating his fight contract with Fury after the Brit failed to convince him he could fly to America. Fury was told last week that he couldn't board a flight to America ahead of the launch press conference for their rescheduled fight date.

Paul is expected to announce tomorrow that he will fight Hasim Rahman Jr instead, but Fury is adamant that he could compete on August 6 if there were a change fo venue. The Brit stayed silent for the last week after telling fans why the press conference was off but took to social media to provide an update.
