Tommy Fury sends confident Jake Paul message after Wembley opponent revealed

Tommy Fury has told Jake Paul that his upcoming opponent would comfortably beat the American as their war of words continue. Fury is set to fight Polish veteran Daniel Bocianski - who boasts an impressive 10-1 record - in one of the fights on the undercard of half brother Tyson's upcoming title bout with Dillian Whyte.

It will be Tommy's first fight since his cancelled bout with American star Paul lass year. Paul's former opponent Woodley stepped up to replace Fury - who was injured - and Paul landed a knockout shot on the former UFC champion.

Fury had hoped to reschedule the fight with Paul since. But the former YouTuber stated on numerous occasions that he is not interested in revisiting a fight with Fury - unless the Briton wins a few contests convincingly.

Now, Fury hopes to do just that, promising to show a convincing performance against his toughest opponent of his career to date. Fury also sent a message to Paul, stating that Bocianski would comfortably defeat him.

Fury told Queensberry Promotions: "This man I'm about to fight would iron Jake Paul out easy. Because this man has probably got a family to feed. This is his only way of making money, he probably needs to make the money. He's going to come in with killer ambition.

"Whenever I get asked about Jake Paul, it doesn't spring anything towards me - that is an easy fight. When Jake Paul is in a tough fight, he'll take a knee and not continue.

"I have seen he wants to fight in August. If he wants his viewing figures back, he knows where it's at. If he wants it if he can have it anytime. My career is blossoming - I am fighting at Wembley in front of 90,000 - the biggest fight in UK history. Jake Paul will be tuning in."

Fury also revealed he has sparred with former and current world champions ahead of his fight with Bocianski.
