Tyson Fury bets big on how the Tommy Fury–Jake Paul fight will end

Jake Paul and Tommy Fury are finally set to put an end to their rivalry when they meet inside the squared circle in Saudi Arabia on Sunday.

'The Problem Child' and 'TNT' have been at war with one another on social media over the last few years and have previously been booked to fight on two other occasions. Fury pulled out injured before the first scheduled bout and the Manchester-born boxer was unable to enter the United States for the second.

Now with the two finally set to face off, WBC heavyweight boxing champion Tyson Fury has backed his 23-year-old half-brother Tommy to not only win the fight but finish the former Disney channel star in stunning fashion.

In an interview with iFL TV, 'The Gypsy King' revealed that he is so confident in Tommy getting the victory that he's placed a £100,000 bet on the outcome:

"Tommy knocks out 90 percent of people that he spars with or drops them at least, so he's a very hard puncher and Jake will find that out tomorrow... I've got 100 racks on it for an inside the distance stoppage, so if he loses, then I'll lose 100 bags as well. I've got him at 3-1."

Fury added:

"I know Tommy is going to knock him out. What is a little bit stupid is I see all these experts and professional boxers picking Jake Paul over Tommy... I think Tommy can get him out of there whenever really. It'll definitely be inside the distance and it won't be a points job for sure. Tommy wins by knockout."

Mike Tyson backs Jake Paul to beat Tommy Fury

Tommy Fury isn't the only man to have a boxing champion in his corner as former heavyweight champion Mike Tyson has backed Jake Paul to win the fight.

Paul is 6-0 in his boxing career and has defeated MMA superstars Tyron Woodley, Ben Askren, and Anderson Silva. Whilst none of these men are professional boxers, their pedigree is certainly higher than those that 'TNT' has faced in his career so far.

Speaking to Boxing Social this week, Mike Tyson discussed the upcoming bout. 'Iron Mike' praised the media and pulling power of 'The Problem Child' and admitted that he doesn't see how Tommy Fury can beat him:

“It shows the market power of Jake Paul. He’s the biggest thing in boxing right now besides the heavyweights... I’ve never seen [Tommy] Fury fight, I don’t think he’ll be able to beat Jake Paul. Jake Paul is getting better and better as he fights, and I don’t know if they brought him over here to lose – we’re going to find out. Somebody is getting knocked out, somebody is going down. Someone’s zero has got to go.”
