YouTuber’s Profitable Boxing Run Gets Real Test; Business Side May See Odd Ending

Jake Paul's critics may finally calm down once the YouTuber’s next fight is sealed.

Although it has yet to be made official, the 24-year-old’s next opponent will likely be a legitimate boxer in the person of Tommy Fury.

The 22-year-old is the younger and half-brother of heavyweight champion Tyson Fury. He holds an unblemished record of 7-0 with four wins coming by way of knockout.

The British pugilist was last seen in action this past August. He took on Anthony Taylor of the United States and won via unanimous decision.

There is no official word on who he may fight next. But it appears he will be in for something different with Paul looming as his next foe.

Fury admitted that he has nothing to gain in this fight against the internet sensation. However, he could be doing boxing critics a big favor if he deals Paul a loss in the ring.

"I've been doing this job since I was seven," he told TMZ. "He's not a boxer. He's gonna see that when we fight."

Fury is aware that winning the fight won’t get him a title shot. But then again, he would rack in a good payday from doing so.

In what is looming as a one-sided fight, considering Fury is someone who has been in the ring for some time, it may be best to taper expectations.

Proof of that is the Floyd Mayweather Jr. vs. Logan Paul fight. Most expected the American fighter to give the 26-year-old YouTuber a sound beating. That never happened, but both fighters raked in millions--per The Guardian's report.
