Jake Paul is known for his fiery tongue, often using it to promote fights and verbally spar with opponents. Tommy Fury recently came under his attack – with Paul taking particular aim with this particular jab at Paul taking an especially personal tone this time around.
Fury, aged 25, found himself under fire after withdrawing from an impending fight against Darren Till due to threats of physical violence from Till. This led Paul, 27, to question Fury’s credibility on social media which caused unease with Love Island star Lucy Lawless; although Paul listed Fury’s victories over KSI and “Problem Child”, Paul felt they weren’t enough evidence for Paul that Fury should defend against such accusations.
Escalating the exchange, Paul brought up Molly Mae, Fury’s ex-partner with whom he has a daughter, born last January. The couple parted ways this August, concluding their five-year relationship. Paul quipped about Fury’s breakup, aiming to provoke.
This comment prompted a fierce reply from Fury who criticized Paul for involving personal matters in their professional rivalry.
