JOHN FURY has urged Jake Paul to reschedule his fight with son Tommy to March next year as there’s no one who will ‘going to generate big money’ like the Brit.
Tommy pulled out of the December 18 fight after suffering with a bacterial chest infection AND a broken rib.
Tyron Woodley – who Paul beat by split decision in August – stepped in on short notice.
The former UFC star could also pick up a cool $500,000 knockout bonus if he manages to floor the YouTuber-turned-boxer.
Speaking on Behind The Gloves, Fury fired back at Paul, who branded his son ‘boxing’s biggest b****’, and warned he’ll give him ‘a good hiding’.
Fury said: “He sucked the life out of the Fury name for three months, he’s had his money’s worth.
“But I’ll tell you what Jake Paul; if you’re any kind of a man at all mate, let’s renegotiate this fight for March or I’ll come to America and give you and your brother a good hiding.
“I’ll slap the pair of you with my backhand, I told you. Don’t keep mentioning me, be careful what you wish for pal.

“Because, you know what? I’ll just come and backhand the pair of ya. But Tommy, don’t worry about it my friend, he will at some point meet you.
“Because there’s no other fight out there.
“Who’s going to generate big money? Only Tommy Fury.”
It’s an offer Paul might just take up.
Paul told Fury to ‘start looking for a new job’ and branded the Brit a ‘cringe old man’.
The American told talkSPORT: “I would say, start looking for a new job.
“You are a cringe old man. He’s an old, miserable man who never accomplished anything in his life.
“He has a mediocre boxing record and the best thing he ever did was have sex with Tyson’s mum to spawn Tyson.
“That’s his only accomplishment – having a giant kid who became heavyweight champion of the world.”
Asked about fighting John, he then added: “I would fight John Fury, for sure.”
