    Default Should Jake Paul be favorite to beat Tommy Fury?

    Both fight in a couple of hours. Fury is a real boxer, Paul has shown he can fight, but hasn't faught a real boxer until now. I don't know much about Fury, but somewhat surprised he is an underdog.

    Jake works way harder, invests way more money, and looks like a much more powerful athlete. People talk about Paul's opponents and rightfully so, but Fury hasn't beat anybody impressive.

    Won't be shocked either way and it'll probably be evenly matched, but Jake winning via knockout or just out lasting Fury are the most likely scenarios imo.

    Jake should be thr favorite tbh. I already consider him a real professional boxer... it's obvious a lot can be accomplished with enough dedicated focus and resources. He's been sparring with the best of the best for years and has an absurd work ethic.

    I think its even right down the middle. Jake hasn't fought anyone of merit, but neither has Fury really either.

    More pressure on Fury because he's actually fought other boxers, even if they are legit tomato cans.

    I think both have a lot of pressure. Paul is talking about winning world titles some day, and is actually the betting favorite. People expect him to win and are taking him very seriously now.

    Furys older brother is the best boxer on the planet and I can't imagine the scrutiny and embarrassment from his family if he loses. Dude really let Jake get under his skin too, was yelling like a maniac at the pressers.

    Not gonna lie - pumped for this fight

    Fury has fought opponents with a combined record of 0-150. Both these guys suck

    Damn, just looked it up and Fury's opponents prior to this fight are 24-176-5.

    The first guy he ever boxed was 10-102

    He did beat a 10-1 boxer in his last fight though.

    What the hell I didn't realize his all-time opponents' record was that bad. No wonder people have been clowning him

    With that being said, Jake Paul is probably going to win. His fights seem pretty fixed too tbh.

    They're not fixed. These guys have other ways of making money other than "pretending" to get knocked out or lose to Jake Paul. 0% chance his fights are fixed
