Boxing star Tommy Fury says that YouTuber-turned-boxer Jake Paul’s $1 million boxing offer isn’t worth getting out of bed for. Paul said earlier this week that he has made two offers to Fury, which the 22-year-old brother of heavyweight boxer Tyson Fury reportedly declined. Paul then said that he would step up his offer to $1 million and he is now waiting to hear what Fury says to his latest offer. However, it appears that Fury is not interested in making only $1 million for the fight, when, as far as Fury goes, the fight against Paul will “gross millions and millions” of dollars.

YouTuber-turned-boxer Logan Paul says he knows who his next opponent is for his next boxing match, but he shot down an Anderson Silva fight.

Paul has made it clear that he intends to step back into the boxing ring for another fight, but so far, we haven’t heard who his opponent will be.

Former UFC welterweight champion Tyron Woodley says that he is going to honor his word and get the “I Love Jake Paul” tattoo this weekend. Woodley and Paul met last month in a boxing match in Cleveland, Ohio, and Paul ended up winning the fight via split decision. Because Paul won the fight, Woodley was supposed to get the tattoo, but instead, he used it as a bargaining chip to secure a rematch. Woodley told Paul that if he agreed to the rematch, that he would get the tattoo. But at this point, Paul has not accepted the rematch with Woodley as he’s currently pursuing a fight against Tommy Fury in boxing instead. However, it appears that Woodley wants to be a man of his word and honor his bet with Paul to get the tattoo saying that he loves his opponent.
