Jake Paul has launched a fresh verbal tirade against Tommy Fury after the Brit’s withdrawal from their scheduled fight in Florida on December 18. Paul has also confirmed that former UFC champion Tyron Woodley will step in to replace Fury in a rematch of his previous bout with the YouTube star earlier this year.
Paul, who defeated Woodley via split decision back in August, was set to face Fury in a high-profile grudge clash later this month.
However, the American has confirmed in a video posted to Twitter that his scheduled opponent will no longer fight due to a medical condition before accusing him of running scared.
“It is official, Tommy Fury is boxing’s biggest b****,” said Paul.
“He has pulled out of the fight, the Furys have pulled of that fight due to a medical condition.
“Who knows what the f*** is going on in that camp, I think he has a bad case of purseitis. I couldn’t believe the news at first, it still doesn’t even seem real.

“He fumbled the biggest bag of his life. Now he’ll be watching at home, paying 60 dollars to watch me instead of being paid millions of dollars to fight me.
“I’ve fought with a broken nose, I’ve fought sick, get the f*** over it, this is boxing. It’s official, he was scared.
“I think the pressure got to him, the s*** talk got to him. That’s the bad news.”
Paul went on to reveal that Woodley has agreed to face him instead of Fury for the second time in five months, adding that the ex-UFC welterweight king will pick up a hefty bonus if he wins by knockout.

“The good news is that Mr Tyron Woodley, we called him up,” he continued.
“We were like: ‘Hey, do you want to take the fight?’. He has been training, he’s going: ‘Sure, let’s do the rematch, let’s run it back’.
“I’m giving him 500,000 dollars extra if he can knock me out. Jake Paul vs Tyron Woodley 2, leave no doubt.
“I didn’t knock him out the first time, I’m coming back and I’m getting that crazy W, that crazy highlight reel knockout. December 18, the show must go on.”
