Jake Paul gears up for his next boxing match while Tommy Fury's camp extends an offer for a rematch. The YouTuber-turned-boxer will face Julio Cesar Chavez Jr. on June 28 in Anaheim, but that's not stopping John Fury from throwing his son's hat back in the ring.
John Fury, Tommy's father and trainer, laid out the terms for a potential rematch between Paul and his son. He's willing to split the purse right down the middle.
"We'll give you a 50/50 split, but don't talk like a prk with the numbers. We know what the fight's worth. I'm not a fool. If you want to fight Tommy 50/50 anywhere in the world, he'll take you straight the fk out, mate."
This offer marks a shift from the original bout's financial arrangement. In their February 2023 clash, Paul walked away with 65% of the pay-per-view revenue and a guaranteed $3.5 million purse, leaving Tommy with the remaining share.
The first fight ended with Tommy Fury handing Jake Paul his only professional loss via split decision. Critics questioned the quality of the competition, but the bout still grabbed headlines as a grudge match between influencers-turned-boxers.
Since then, both fighters have moved on to new challenges. Tommy Fury added another win to his record by defeating KSI, while Jake Paul continues to pursue fights with high-profile opponents.
Paul's upcoming bout with Chavez Jr. falls in line with his ambition to face more established boxers. He's even thrown out names like Mike Tyson, Canelo Alvarez, and Anthony Joshua as potential future opponents.
John Fury seems determined to settle unfinished business, having extended similar challenges to KSI as well. The ball's now in Jake Paul's court – will he take up the offer for a 50/50 rematch, or continue on his current path of chasing bigger names in the boxing world?
