The American heckled from ringside and the two later clashed post-fight with security having to restrain them as their rivalry hit new heights.

Fury’s dad John at one point even ripped off his shirt and offered to fight Paul bare-knuckle in the ring.

Promoter Warren was not present at the even in the Middle East, headlined by Floyd Mayweather, and was happy not to be.

He said on talkSPORT: “I’m glad I wasn’t there.

“It’s all a bit silly and gets a bit ridiculous, but I don’t know, but for some reason it is what it is.

“This sort of YouTube type of thing, remember I come from the purest boxing background, and I look at it sometimes and I just scratch my head, but maybe I’m just getting older and I’m missing the point.”

Paul publicly stated online that he is ready to travel to the UK to face Fury at the third time of asking.

And he has given his celebrity boxing rival just a week to return a signed contract by.

Warren reckons the seven-day deadline is enough time to get a deal over the line.

He said: “It will probably be in late February or March.

“The reason why it didn’t go [before], the contracts were all signed, because of the problems he had with the US immigration.

“We are all past that now. Jake is up for coming over here and we have to get the deal finalised in the next week or so.”

Twice the famous boxing foes have signed to fight but both times Fury, 23, was withdrawn.

Fury’s dad and coach John claimed he shook hands with Paul’s manager Nakisa Bidarian over a bout in February.

And the YouTuber-turned 6-0 boxer insisted he has no problem crossing enemy territory to finally commence battle.

He tweeted: “I agree to fight Tommy in Manchester or London in February.

“I’ll come to his country, no more running. His baby is due then and you’ve said it’s no issue.

“Since John is adamant we’ve agreed, I am giving you seven days to present a signed contract by Tommy or I’m moving on.”

Paul’s Most Valuable Promotions company revealed they will pay their man while Warren will take care of Fury’s financials.

MVP posted: “John Fury has asked for February. Jake Paul has agreed.

How to box effectively

Boxing is one the most well-known sports in the world. It is made up of two competitors who aim to knock the head off each other. Each country has its own rules. In general, there are three types of boxing; Amateur, Professional and Olympic boxing.

Amateur boxing is usually practiced at school, college or university. This form of boxing involves sparring with no protection and using padded gloves. Amateur boxing competitions usually last three rounds and last five minutes each. There are many different styles of amateur boxing including Kickboxing, Muay Thai, Taekwondo, Karate, Judo, Wrestling and others.

Boxing is typically practiced in clubs, stadiums or gyms. They are protected by protective equipment like a mouthpiece, nose protector, shinguards, elbow pads and knee pads, waist belt, and groin protection. Professional boxing competitions have six rounds that last four minutes each. There are many types of professional boxing. These include Boxing (MMA), Kickboxing (Mixed Martial Arts), Muay Thai and Taekwondo.

Olympic boxing is performed at the Olympics. Boxers are required to wear international standards-compliant protective gear. The competition lasts for eight rounds, each lasting three minutes. Olympic boxing is limited to two styles: Light Flyweight and Heavyweight.

The basic skills of boxing are:

  • Punching techniques
  • Guarding techniques
  • Footwork
  • Stance
  • Move your body
  • Defense
  • Combination
  • Rotation
  • Spare parts

Punching Techniques

There are seven types: Left Hook (right hook), Right Hook (uppercut), Cross (cross), Straight, Overhand, Underhand. Each punch comes with its own technique. Some punches require more strength than others. An uppercut, for instance, requires tremendous strength. On the contrary, a straight punch takes less power but is faster than most punches.

There are many combinations of punches. These are combinations which combine several punches in order to achieve a specific goal. One combination can have many parts. A combination may include multiple parts. For example, damage to the jaw of an opponent can be caused by a left hook and a right cross.

Guard Techniques

A boxer protects himself by using his body. He does this using his legs and arms, elbows as well as hands, knees and feet.

Legs

Boxers must use their legs to defend themselves against kicks. When he receives a kick, he raises his leg and moves away from the attacker. If the attack comes from the front, then he bends his knees to avoid being kicked on the side. He will block the kick with his foot if the attack is coming from behind.

Elbows

Elbow strikes are very powerful because they inflict great pain. An elbow strike may be delivered directly or in an indirect manner. Directly, you strike your opponent with your forearm. Indirectly, you hit him with another portion of your arm.

Hands

Boxers use the power of their hands to block any incoming blows. To do so, they raise their fists above their head and move them towards the direction of the attack. They then make contact with their attacker’s fist.

Knees

To absorb the impact of a punch to the stomach, abdomen, or chest, boxers should bend their knees. For defense purposes, knee strikes are common.

Feet

If he is being attacked, a boxer must take a step back and counter-attack. This will allow him to gain distance from his opponent. Boxers should also keep their balance when counter-attacking.

Stances

Boxing is only possible if a boxer has a clear stance. How he defends his self will depend on how he stances. It is how he positions himself and where he faces the opponent. There are many positions that boxers can adopt. These are the most popular:

  • Low stance
  • High stance
  • Southpaw stance
  • Western stance

Body Movement

A boxer must be able to move around his opponent in order to win a fight. This involves changing position, speed and rhythm.

Rotation

To increase his punching power, a boxer rotates when he throws a punch. The rotation is done at different speeds depending on the type of punch.

Combinations

The effectiveness of a combination depends on the timing of each individual punch. A combination of strong and weak punches will produce a good result.

Spare parts

Sparring is a training session that improves boxing skills. Boxers learn to train their mind and bodies during sparring sessions. The purpose of sparring is, in short, to learn how fight and not get hurt.

You need to have patience and dedication in order to learn how boxing works. You need to train hard and long in order to become a better boxer.
