Tommy Fury's dad John details "positive" talks over Jake Paul fight next year

Tommy Fury's father John has revealed that positive talks have been held over staging a fight with Jake Paul next year.

Fury has come close to fighting Paul on two occasions with their first scheduled meeting last December ending after the Briton was forced to withdraw with a broken rib. Earlier this year, Paul rescheduled his bout with Fury at Madison Square Garden, but it was unable to take place after Fury was prevented from travelling to the US to take part in the event.

Both men now have separate opponents, with Fury set to return on the undercard of Floyd Mayweather's fight against Deji when he takes on Paul Bamba. But Fury Sr has revealed they will consider revisiting the fight with Paul next year and is happy for his son to receive the challenge of any other YouTube stars.
