Tyson Fury went over to Jake Paul straight after his eight-round contest with brother Tommy.
Footage from inside the ring captured Tyson Fury’s exchange with Jake Paul after his fight with brother Tommy.
Paul suffered his first ever career defeat on Sunday night in Diriyah, Saudi Arabia, losing to Fury via split decision after the eight-round contest.
There was a mutual respect between the two fighters after going to battle following a back and forth rivalry that got deeply personal.
And straight after the bout, before the results were even in, WBC world heavyweight champion Fury went over to Paul and praised his performance in his first fight against an actual boxer.
“Well done, Jake,” Fury can be heard saying in the footage from Top Rank Boxing.
“Good fight brother. Very, very impressed. Well done, well done!”
Separately, the ‘Gypsy King’, who lost big money on a bet he placed, has also said he would very much be interested in seeing 6-1 Paul and his younger sibling go at it again in a rematch.
Both have said they would be up for slugging it out given the success of the first bout.
John Fury, meanwhile is urging Paul to stay true to his word and pay up for his ‘double or nothing’ bet.
The pair of fighters shook hands on a wager before and Fury Sr took to social media to tell him to pay up.
“Jake Paul, moment of truth, again I say it,” he said in a video on social media.
“You lost the fight, we had a deal in front of millions of people worldwide, I expect you to honour that deal.”
However, Paul’s team have since responded – with his manager taking to Instagram and claiming that they have video evidence of him not agreeing to the terms.
“Dear John – congratulations on the win. I’ve grown to highly respect you off camera,” Nakisa Bidarian posted.
“However, this statement is shocking given what you said to me at his Highnesses [sic] house on Friday evening and the correspondence from your / Tommy’s lawyer.
“Moreover our team has you on camera refusing to agree on the deal the night of the fight.”
