‘I’ve done it all’ – Jake Paul refuses to commit to Tommy Fury fight and will take indefinite time off from boxing

JAKE PAUL refused to commit to a future fight with Tommy Fury, but confirmed he will take a break from boxing.

Paul was set to fight Fury in Florida, until the British former reality TV star pulled out with a broken rib and chest infection.

Tyron Woodley, beaten by the YouTuber on points in August, instead filled in as a late replacement.

And the ex-UFC champion was brutally knocked out in round six following a massive right hand.

Paul, 24, admitted he does not know who his next opponent will be, in a blow to Fury, 22, but will take some time off after four fights in 13 months.

He said: “I don’t really know what’s next on the roadmap. I’ve done it all, I’ve accomplished what I want to accomplish.

“I need to take a break, I’ve been going at this non-stop for a year and a half and it’s a lot.

“I’m exhausted, I need to spend time with my family at Christmas and go on a vacation, I haven’t gone on a vacation since I was 18-years-old.

“I told myself ‘not until you feel like you’ve got to a place in life where you deserve a vacation’ and I deserve it now.

“I’m going to go on my first real vacation where there’s no obligations, because I’ve gone on vacations where I have to film it, vlog it, do interviews and wake up at a certain time to work out.

“I’m going on a real vacation and doing backflips into the water – I’ll come back whenever I feel like it.”

Woodley, 39, joins YouTuber ‘AnEsonGib’, ex-NBA star Nate Robinson, 37, and retired UFC welterweight Ben Askren, 37, on Paul’s KO list.

And he boasted of sending them into his his meme collection.

Paul said: “I’ve done more than enough, four massive fights in 13 months. Nobody in the history of boxing has done what I’ve done at this age. 

“Massive pay-per-views, knocked out every person that I’ve fought, the only person that’s as active as me is Canelo, and he’s 50+ fights in.

“I turned them all into memes, that s*** is going viral all over the internet and I’m ready to fight whoever.

“It doesn’t matter if they’re a professional boxer or a five-time UFC champion, I don’t care.

“I’m really built for this and no matter what I’m going to find a way to get the job done and that’s what I showed tonight.”
