Tommy Fury vs Jake Paul 'won't happen' with YouTube star 'terrified' of fight

John Fury has launched a scathing tirade upon Jake Paul - claiming that the American is 'a bum' and is 'terrified' of his son Tommy as the pair prepare to lock horns.

With a 100 per cent record so far in his short career, 23-year-old Tommy's next fight looks set to be against YouTube sensation Paul, who himself has a record of six wins from six fights himself. A fight had already been agreed with the Ohio-born star twice before, though an injury to Fury - brother of Tyson - set the first bout back, before the rematch was again postponed due to Fury having travel issues to the USA.

However, with a third fight tipped to happen in February or March, coarse-voiced John has poured cold water on any potential fight happening - saying the Paul is 'terrified' of a potential fight with Tommy, calling him 'a bum' and 'jack s**t' to anything.
