Jake Paul tells us he's talked to Francis Ngannoum, who recently parted ways with the UFC, about signing with his combat sports promotion, Most Valuable Promotions (MVP)!
Paul has a huge fight coming up on February 26 in Saudi Arabia, against his bitter rival, 23-year-old undefeated boxer, and Jake says he's added to his repertoire, and he's ready to show he's better than ever.
"[Training camp was] good, man, it's really really good. I've reached new levels, implemented new skills into this camp, and I'm excited to put those on display against a professional boxer from a legendary bloodline and a legendary family."Paul and Fury were previously supposed to fight on two occasions, but Tommy pulled out . Earlier this week, Fury failed to show up for a promotional media event, which frankly pissed Jake off.
"It's typical Tommy behavior. It's unfortunate because he's really just harming the event, harming the fans, and it's unprofessional, and I'm a bit sick of dealing with him on the business side of things," Paul said.For what it's worth, Jake says he believes Tommy will show up for the fight this time around, telling us ..."He's going to be there.""He's a good fighter. He's fast.
Tommy seems to see things differently and told us earlier this week he was going to send Jake home in an ambulance.But, Paul says Fury's"emulating his brother", but with one distinction ..."[Tyson] actually does it and backs it up." "I'm [Tommy's] first real opponent and it's gonna be a rude, rude awakening for him when he gets in the ring, under those lights, and someone like me is coming at him, punching him up and down nonstop. He's not gonna like this sport.""There's a lot of people out there still.is still running around. I think the Floyd fight is still interesting. There's a lot of names out there after this fight.
