Tommy Fury is questioning whether Anthony Joshua will deliberately throw his fight against Jake Paul after being paid off. Fury says that if the fight lasts past two minutes of the first round, he will assume that Joshua was “Pay off” by someone.
Tommy does not believe that Jake Paul (12-1, 7 costs) has the kind of talent to compete with the former two-time heavyweight champion and the Olympic Gold Medal Medal in 2012 (28-4, 25).
A champion’s falling punch resistance
This was perhaps the case in Joshua’s career earlier, but he is now older, and his punching resistance is no longer there. Paul, 28, is much younger than AJ, and he has the kind of power that will enable him to complete what is left of him.
‘Money is a very powerful thing in this world. But if it goes beyond two minutes of the opening round, I will be paid off in AJ, ‘Tommy Fury said on the bumpy ground channelHis thoughts on Anthony Joshua against Jake Paul fight.
“I think it will take a lot of money to happen, and if it does, I think it will be very disturbing to everyone. But you can’t exclude it because that’s where boxing is today. If I can beat Jake Paul, what will Anthony Joshua do after him? Even if AJ had a broken arm, it wouldn’t pass a minute yet, ‘Tommy says.
What Fury does not admit is how Bros Joshua’s chin is at this point in his 12-year professional career. He comes from a brutal fifth round of a loss to Daniel Dubois in September. To that end, he fought four cupcakes after losing consecutive battles against Oleksandr Usyk.
Eddie Hearn’s smart match
Moreover, Joshua is not young, and was never a great fighter. He turns 36 in October, and his punching resistance is gone. His promoter, Eddie Hearn, worked his magic to keep his career through his smart game, and avoided the dangerous opposition until recently. Without Hearn, the strings would draw like a puppet player, Joshua’s career would have gone up many years ago.
Even in Joshua’s loss of Andy Ruiz in 2019, it was initially a cherry choice from Hearn, who chose a career-long contender for his replacement opponent.
“As a safety aspect, there is no way in which battles can continue if one of them is not paid off. AJ can be paid a lot of money not to throw a punch for eight rounds,” Tommy said.
Fury really reaches here with his sinister speculation about the Joshua-Paul battle. You can’t help thinking that he’s a little jealous, because Paul is about to fight in a massive payday against Joshua. AJ’s wallet for battle can be over $ 100 million. There is so much money for both fighters to take from this collision. Meanwhile, Tommy Fury’s career has not risen since his narrow, stuffed victory over Paul in 2023.
