Henry Cejudo believes the next fight on Jake Paul's list should be a bout against Tommy Fury.

In the aftermath of his victory over Tyron Woodley, Paul engaged in a backstage confrontation with Fury and things look to be set up nicely for a fight between the two.

In a recently posted breakdown clip on Instagram, Henry Cejudo stated that he thinks Fury will beat Jake Paul. However, according to 'Triple C', he also believes that the Englishman doesn't understand his abilities and his length.

"Which I think Fury would actually beat him. Now I'm gonna swap. The thing with Fury is his length and I don't think he understands his ability."

Cejudo added that one vital aspect missing from Fury's game is his ability to recognize his actual range on how to connect or how to hit somebody. Elsewhere, the former UFC bantamweight champion thinks Fury is a gift and has the natural ability to fight.

"As soon as he recognizes his actual range, on how to connect or how to hit somebody. The dude is a gift, the dude has the natural ability."
