Jake Paul claims Tyson Fury may have “finally earned the chance” to fight him after KO win over Deontay Wilder

Jake Paul has reacted to Tyson Fury’s phenomenal 11th-round stoppage win against Deontay Wilder in their trilogy fight at the Fury vs. Wilder 3 pay-per-view event. ‘The Problem Child’ took to Twitter to react to the bout, throwing a bit of shade at ‘The Gypsy King’ in the process.

According to Paul, Tyson Fury may have finally ‘earned’ the opportunity to fight him after beating Wilder in a back-and-forth thriller.

“I think Tyson Fury might have finally earned the chance to fight me.”

While Jake Paul’s tweet is in line with his usual bold callouts of big names from the world of combat sports, he likely called out Tyson Fury in a jocular vein. Fury is a full-fledged heavyweight boxer, while Paul fights in the cruiserweight division. ‘The Problem Child’ is also known for fighting opponents smaller than him and Tyson Fury definitely doesn’t fit the bill.
