Insights and Updates on Tommy Fury vs. Jake Paul Rematch
- Tommy Fury is amenable to a 12-round rematch with Jake Paul, contingent upon serious negotiations.

- Despite ongoing discussions on social media, Jake Paul has not yet acknowledged Fury’s rematch offer publicly.
Tommy Fury has revealed his interest in a potential 12-round rematch against Jake Paul, provided that there are “serious”negotiations involved. When the two boxers first clashed in February 2023, Fury handed Paul his inaugural loss, disrupting a previously undefeated career. During that match, Paul scored a late knockdown, but it was insufficient to alter the outcome.
Enhancing his credentials in the ring, Fury recently secured another notable victory against KSI, further establishing his claim as the leading figure in YouTuber boxing. Initially scheduled to fight former UFC fighter Darren Till, Fury’s bout was derailed after Till withdrew. In response, Paul quickly set the stage for a rematch, stipulating that it must be a 12-round fight, an upgrade from their original eight-round format. Fury took to social media to express his readiness to engage in discussions, emphasizing the need for genuine commitment from Paul.
Fury’s comments were shared on his Instagram Stories: “I’ve just woken up and seen Logan Paul talking on his podcast about how I don’t want to fight Jake and I’m running scared. I’ve seen Jake tweeting about offers he made on Netflix. I just want to clarify that no one is avoiding that fight.”He added, “I already defeated you once and I can do it again, but let’s have a serious conversation.”

Fury urged Paul to reach out directly rather than making public offers, insisting, “It’s that simple. I can come back after a year and defeat both of you. If you want to fight, let’s discuss some real numbers; you know how to contact me.”Despite these entreaties, Jake Paul has yet to provide a public response to Fury’s remarks.
The rivalry between Tommy Fury and Jake Paul escalated with their respective rises in the boxing arena, heavily fueled by social media interactions and competitive banter. Their saga began in 2021, with both expressing mutual interest in a fight and exchanging sharp retorts online. Originally scheduled for December 2021, the match faced multiple delays due to Fury’s injuries and visa complications, finally culminating in their showdown on February 26, 2023, in Saudi Arabia. Fury emerged victorious through a split decision, marking a pivotal moment in their rivalry despite Paul’s late-round knockdown.
Fury’s recent comments come on the heels of Jake Paul’s unanimous decision win over Mike Tyson last month, a fight that has sparked renewed speculation regarding his next opponent. Alongside Fury, boxer Ryan Garcia has also called out Paul for a potential clash. The matchup between Paul and Tyson faced technical difficulties during its Netflix streaming, with viewers experiencing issues such as outages and poor video quality. Nevertheless, Paul entered the ring with a commendable 10-1 professional record, his only defeat attributed to Fury earlier in the year.
