JAKE PAUL already has one win over the Fury family ahead of his grudge match with Tommy Fury.
It came back in 2021, as YouTuber-turned-boxer Paul battled against former UFC Champion Tyron Woodley.
Jake Paul brutally KOd Tyron Woodley in 2021
And beat Tyson Fury’s knockout of Deontay Wilder to the Knockout of the Year award
Paul is facing Tommy Fury later today
Paul struggled in his first match against the ex-welterweight champ, before facing him in a rematch four months later and landing a thumping punch which KOd Woodley.
This saw Paul win ESPN’s “Knockout of the Year” award.
And it turns out he beat Tommy‘s brother Tyson in the process.
The “Gypsy King” landed his own brutal knockout punch that year in his fight with Deontay Wilder.
Fury was looking to put his rival down once and for all in the final instalment of their thrilling trilogy.
A 2018 draw between the pair was followed by a Fury TKO victory in 2020 before Fury put an end to the trilogy in 2021.
Despite dropping Fury to the floor a number of times in the early rounds, the “Bronze Bomber” was unable to capitalise and soon found himself on the ropes.
Fury then landed the final blow with a right hook which left Wilder sleeping on the canvas.
Fury and Paul were subsequently both nominated for the fan-voted knockout of the year award.
The result saw Paul win by a significant margin as he picked up 56 per cent of the vote.
Meanwhile, Fury only received 37.3 per cent of the votes.
The remaining votes saw 5.3 per cent go to Oscar Valdez’s 10th-round KO of Miguel Berchelt in the WBC super-featherweight title fight.
While the other 1.5 per cent went to Gabe Rosado’s stunning punch and weave move on the previously unbeaten Bektemir Melikuziev.
Paul will be once again hoping to land a KO over the Fury family, this time in a more direct fashion when he faces “TNT” later today.
However, backup fighter Mike Perry posted a document claiming to be a so-called “script” for the fight.
The baseless document, which promoters confirmed to SunSport is “fake”, suggests Paul will win the fight by TKO.
Paul and Fury came face to face for the final time before their showdown in their weigh-in yesterday, with “The Problem Child” Paul antagonising Fury into pushing him.

How To
Here are the Essential Skills of Boxing
How to effectively box
Boxing is a popular sport. It consists of two opponents who try to knock out each other’s head. Each country has its own rules. There are generally three types of boxing: Amateur, Professional, and Olympic.
Amateur boxing can be practiced at school or college. This type of boxing allows sparring without protection. Amateur boxing contests are usually three rounds in length, lasting five minutes each. There are many styles of amateur boxing such as Kickboxing or Muay Thai, Taekwondo and Karate, Judo and Wrestling, among others.
Professional boxing is usually practiced in gyms, clubs or stadiums. They wear protective equipment such as mouthpiece, nose guard, shin guards, elbow pads, knee pads, waist belt and groin protector. Six rounds of professional boxing last four minutes each. There are many styles of professional boxing: Boxing, MMA (Mixed Martial Arts), Kickboxing and Muay Thai.
Olympic boxing is performed at the Olympics. International standards dictate that boxers must wear protective gear. The competition lasts for eight rounds, each lasting three minutes. There are only two styles of Olympic boxing; Light Flyweight and Heavyweight.
Boxing is based on the following skills:
- Punching techniques
- Guarding techniques
- Footwork
- Stance
- Moving your body
- Defense
- Combination
- Rotation
- Spare parts
Punching Techniques
There are seven types. Each punch comes with its own technique. Some punches are more powerful than others. An example of this is an uppercut, which requires tremendous force. However, a straight punch is much more powerful and faster than other punches.
There are also many combinations. These are combinations that combine punches to accomplish a particular goal. A combination may contain several parts. A left hook followed with a right-cross will cause injury to the opponent’s jaw.
Guard Techniques
A boxer protects himself by using his body. He does this by using his legs, arms, elbows, hands, knees and feet.
Legs
Boxers should use their legs to defend against kicks. When he receives a kick, he raises his leg and moves away from the attacker. If the attacker is coming from the front, he will bend at the knees to avoid getting kicked on either side. If the attack comes from behind, however, he can stand straight up and block the kick by his foot.
Elbows
Because they inflict pain, elbow strikes can be very effective. An elbow strike can be delivered directly or indirectly. Directly means you hit your opponent directly with your forearm. While indirectly, it means you hit him with another section of your arm.
Hands
Boxers use their hands to block incoming blows. Boxers raise their fists to block incoming blows and then move in the direction of the attacker’s attack. They then make contact with their attacker’s fist.
Knees
Boxers who are subject to a punch to their stomachs, abdomens, or chests should bend at the knees to absorb the impact. A lot of boxers use knee strikes to defend themselves.
Feet
A boxer should take control of an attack and respond with counter-attacks. This will allow him to gain distance from his opponent. Also, boxers must maintain their balance while delivering counter-attacks.
Stances
Boxing effectively requires a boxer to have a good stance. How he defends his self will depend on how he stances. It is how he positions himself and where he faces the opponent. Boxers have many options for stances. These are the most popular:
- Low stance
- High stance
- Southpaw stance
- Western stance
Body Movement
Boxers must maneuver around their opponent to win fights. This means changing your speed, position and rhythm.
Rotation
Boxers rotate their arms when they throw a punch. The rotation is done at different speeds depending on the type of punch.
Combinations
Timing of each punch is crucial to the effectiveness of a combination. A combination that works well starts with strong punches and ends with weak ones is a winning combination.
Spare parts
Sparring is a training session that improves boxing skills. A sparring session is where a boxer trains both his mind and his body. In conclusion, the purpose of sparring is to learn how to fight and not get hurt.
In conclusion, learning to box requires dedication and patience. You need to train hard and long in order to become a better boxer.
