Jake Paul reeled off the excuses after losing to Tommy Fury on points. The Problem Child explained that he had been ill in the lead-up to the fight and had injured his arm as fans booed the YouTuber-turned-boxer for his lack of humility.
Speaking to Radio Rahim in the immediate aftermath, Paul said: “All respect to Tommy, he won. Don’t judge me by my wins, judge me by my losses.
“I’ll come back and I think we deserve the rematch. It was a great fight, a close fight. I don’t know if I agree with the judges. I got a 10-8 round twice. It is what it is but I’ve already won in life. I’ve won in every single way, I have amazing family, amazing friends and an amazing work ethic.”
“Honestly, I felt flat, I got sick really bad twice in this camp, and injured my arm,” added Paul as boos rang around the Diriyah Arena. “But I lost, I’m not making excuses. It wasn’t my best performance.”
“All the way through, I had a dream and a vision that I would win this fight but now everyone can stand up and take note! I had pressure on my shoulders and I came through! This to me is a world title fight it was my destiny, guys we did it!”
“100% this is my first main event, I am going to get bigger and better and if he wants a rematch bring it on!”
