Fury, the younger half-brother of heavyweight boxing champion Tyson Fury, beat YouTuber-turned-boxer KSI by unanimous decision in October.  Fury is famous in the <a class=\"wpil_keyword_link\" href=\"https:\/\/wikidollar.net\/tag\/united\/\"   title=\"United\" data-wpil-keyword-link=\"linked\">United<\/a> Kingdom, where he is from, after an appearance on the reality TV show &#8220;Love Island.<\/p>\n<p>Paul, 27, beat UFC legend Nate Diaz in a boxing match last August.  Since then, Paul has refocused his boxing career on fighting relative unknowns to gain experience with an eye toward one day winning a championship.  He&#39;s following a more traditional path for someone of his experience level.  Paul is 8-1 in boxing, with five knockouts.<\/p>\n<p>In December, Paul knocked out <a class=\"wpil_keyword_link\" href=\"https:\/\/wikidollar.net\/tag\/andre\/\"   title=\"Andre\" data-wpil-keyword-link=\"linked\">Andre<\/a> August in the first round, and Paul will return to the ring on March 2 to face former Golden Gloves champion Ryan Bourland as the co-main event of the Amanda Serrano vs. Nina Meinke card in Puerto Rico .<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe all know that everyone tries to show off if they don&#39;t really want to fight and hide behind that,\u201d Paul said of Fury.  &#8220;So, I think that&#39;s where things are. But regardless, my mission is different than becoming a world champion, and all Tommy&#39;s doors lead to me. I can do whatever I want, whatever it is. beauty &#8211; and what I want. what I want is to be world champion. And this is my path.&#8221;<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Jake Paul-Tommy Fury boxing rematch could lead to MMA fight\u060c Marc Raimondi, ESPN editorFebruary 22, 2024, 7:46 p.m. A rematch between Jake Paul and Tommy Fury in boxing could lead to a clash between the two in a cage.
